Captain’s Log: Would a New Star Trek series last today?

I got to thinking about this question today and I came to a troubling conclusion.  As much as I would want it to, I don’t think a new Trek series would do well in Hollywood today.  The first season of every Trek series is pretty bad and that spells disaster in the ratings game.  I’ve seen some very promising shows get cancelled before the writers work through the kinks and get things rolling smoothly.  Sadly, Star Treks tend not to get going until the third season.     

What do you think?
