The needs of the many have been heard as CBS has announced they are planning on launching a brand new Star Trek series for television in January of 2017. Alex Kurtzman, co-writer and producer of rebooted films Star Trek (2009) and Star Trek Into Darkness (2013), has been tapped to be an executive producer of the new series.

The new series has yet to be titled and will feature a brand new set of characters that will carry on the familiar mission of exploring strange new worlds, seeking out new life and new civilizations, and boldly going where no man has gone before. CBS’s Star Trek series will also not have any ties to the Paramount Pictures film Star Trek Beyond, releasing in July of 2016.

CBS plans to develop the television series exclusively for the United States on CBS All Access, their live streaming and digital video on demand service. Executive Vice President and General Manager of CBS Digital Media stated:

HOW TO: Change system date in OS X ...
