I beg to differ. Sure the 40 minute show may not cut it anymore but that's just due to bad writing. I do not want to see a show that that is in essence a 20 part mini-series. Miss one or 2 and you don't know what's going on. This would be even more confused by the fact that almost all the shows I've seen recently go with 3 or 4 new episodes then 2 or 3 repeats for the whole season. I want a start and and end in 1 hour.

One could put it down to different tastes, but IMHO since each Trek series has dealt with either a specific ship or a space station, then it makes more sense story-wise that things should be more mini-series like instead of episodic like.

If want you want is a story that begins and ends in an hour, then it would make more sense not to restrict oneself to a specific ship or space station.
