I’m suddenly squealing spastically with excitement. I just saw this! Thirty minutes ago, CBS announced that it has begun work on a new star trek series! Of course, no details have emerged yet, and it’s not clear whether they’ll set it in the proper star trek universe or the rebooted one, but I’m nevertheless very excited.

Given what I did yesterday, the coincidence/timing is uncanny. In fact James and I were talking about the demise of the series in 2005 on the bus home, and I was telling J that, since the end of enterprise, star trek has been banished from tv. Last night I thought it would never return – how wrong I was.
