Still kind of in awe at managing to cram so much nostalgia, actual story, and tied of numerous plot threads hanging off trek shows and movies in the process..
I mean goodness. After the brutal insults from JJ Abrams and others in the form of so called fan service, calling this refreshing is an absolute understatement.
Every easter egg and chunk of fan service managing to actually serve the story....
What happened to the remains of the enterprise D saucer after star trek generations?
Why could Picard hear the Borg in First contact What happened to the dominion after the way ended?
What happened to what was left of the Borg after voyager returned home?
It has often felt like the franchise wanted to avoid revisiting the implications and consequences of these stories and just kind of moved on. What Terry managed to do was not just give me Trek I have been craving - but even solved shortcomings of the Berman era along the way. He provided what I now consider to be the best trek finale ever (and that's saying something) - but one of my favorite TV show finales in general. And I don't think that's a fluke seeing as I thought 12 Monkey's was masterfully concluded.
If they don't make use of Terry moving forward, then there will be no defense left for Kurtzman. Starfleet academy and section 31 absolutely pale in comparison of significance to Terry's proposed Start Trek Legacy.
