In its 60th year, one that is filled with huge past highs, and some fairly despondent lows, moments that preached beyond the capacity of the viewer to admire, let alone respect, the many worlds of Star Trek finds itself following from the lamentable final series of Discovery with a way to restart the whole idea of Starfleet being formed once again whilst building a structure to imagine just how the premise of the programme, its history and its future can combat fatigue.

Fletch lived, briefly but with all the attention that Chevy Chase could muster in the two adaptions made for cinema when he was one of the undisputed kings of American film. Fletch lived, but cinema can be fickle, it can just as quickly destroy as it can create, and after 1989’s Fletch Lives became but a distant memory there was probably no hope that Gregory McDonald’s popular creation would project its neo-noir investigative detective would be back to confront the sins of those without a sense of humour again.
