Cut and pasted shamelessly from StarTrek.com:

"CBS Television Studios announced today it will launch a totally new Star Trek television series in January 2017."

"The brand-new Star Trek will introduce new characters seeking imaginative new worlds and new civilizations, while exploring the dramatic contemporary themes that have been a signature of the franchise since its inception in 1966."

"The new television series is not related to the upcoming feature film Star Trek Beyond which is scheduled to be distributed by Paramount Pictures in summer 2016."

    That and they probably are in discussion for being remade by someone someplace because the movie industry is so creatively bankrupt. I originally thought up the BSG thing as a joke, but searched Google and sure enough it turned up a real article from 2014 talking about a real movie.

    Still, Disco Fever... that would work. Disco is coming back, I just know it will.

    Considering that after the main show wrapped, they did a TV movie, a spinoff show, and some sort of web series ("Bill Adama, younger and more emo!" or something like that), it's not surprising.
