Orci, CBS and the Golden Age of Television
~ Happy Happy Joy Joy ~
BEST TWEET of the WEEK from @joemichalczuk. Bob Orci just told me they've had a meeting with CBS to revive @StarTrek on TV...
Roberto Orci had a meeting with CBS to bring Star Trek back to Television.
A sudden twist when last week, Mr. Abrams said 'they (CBS) are not interested.'
Also around last week CBS asked, "Is this the the Golden Age of Television?" My answer was "no" after hearing they did not want Star Trek, as it is one of the few properties that can bring about this Golden Age.
The Star Trek fan base as a unique sub-culture has developed psychological needs related to canon that can now be satisfied through the use of Television and Online Experiences.
Others are trying and finding it may not be the 'Holy Grail' without pre-existing, strong icons and a fan base as described above.

Since 2003 I have been chatting and interviewing Star Trek writers, artists, creators, and the executives and developers from Paramount, Perpetual and Cryptic on the subject of Television Show/MMO (Massively Multi-player Online) tie-ins. At that time there were too many hurdles to prevent it before 2010.
Syfy/Trion were not able to do it till just this year.
Most of all those problems have now been solved and can continue to be solved until after the third, Abrams Star Trek movie when CBS should move on bringing it back
The mission to show people what is coming in the next one hundred years is more important than ever.
Knowing that you can mobilize a national and international identity with The Orignal Series icons is a powerful thing.
Being able for the first time to satisfy the psychological needs of this fan base to create, connect with and shape canon for record profits is the win/win.
That to me represents the power and (for better or worse) the glory of what is, 'The Golden Age of Televison'.

Into Darkness: NIBIRU & the Anunaki.
Circa 2010-2012
As a reader of Zecharia Sitchin and follower of Sumerian tablet translations I recall Tweeting, Roberto Orci a number of times about including information about the ANUNAKI from NIBIRU in what would be the second Star Trek movie and with hopes it would be a continuing story-line in the NEXT TREK TV series..
Into Darkness opens on the planet NIBIRU where, in this alternate timeline it would be us humans that impacted their development and violated the Prime Directive.
During the mid 1990's stories gathered from hundreds of clay tablets began to paint a comprehensive picture of alien involvement and alien manipulation of human-kind's evolution. A race of beings whom we called the ANUNAKI had come to Earth for resources and began establishing settlements and mining operations at various locations around the globe.
A revolt among the miners and those here on Earth threatened the lives of those back on Nibiru and a solution was needed to continue the mission. It was decided that early human DNA should be altered so that mankind would become a viable and suitable work-force for the Anunaki. In doing so, and if the 'Federation' does exist (See: Exopolitics), the Anunaki violated the Prime Directive.
It was wonderful to see Nibiru, a ziggurat, and the early Anunaki as THE opening scene for the Into Darkness and WHEN Star Trek does come back to TV it would be very nice to see how the story continues to play out.
Thank you, Mr. Orci.
