Western sci-fi is dead. How much creative originality is really going to go into the 1000th revisitation to a franchise? Last western sci-fi worth watching was Moon.

I was rather impressed by “The Expanse”.

Your mileage may vary.

You are not in the majority on that declaration.

If you read the article, you would have learned that - because it is so far in the future - all the old material is only for historical references and they are not revisiting as you put it. It will be all new themes, plots, and stories - apparently. I suppose it will tied into the upcoming Piccard series which will be followed by a Section 31 series with some sort of DS-9 tie in.
