…all estimates to date project that the series will debut on Paramount+ sometime in 2026. In the meantime, the show has already been renewed for a second season of production.

Glad they believe in it enough to want a second season.

Now I wait until 2026 to see Parrises squares onscreen at last 🙏

I like to think of Mirror Chakotay like, with giant eagles’ wings and singin’ lead vocals for photonic Lynyrd Skynyrd with like a Maquis band.

I have a half-baked thought of my own.

That as the world slides into the maws of oligarchy, we need to see the Star Trek series that zooms in on the transition away from money.

They should face the music of class war with that Trek panache that made them great👌

There is this thing we need to find that thing. An entire season about finding that thing.

Ah yes, the season-sized adventure that feels like a bunch of yak-shaving fetch-quests in an rpg.

we must find the progenitor macguffin, but first we must find the treasure map, but first…

If we look for it we probably see this pattern is common across many trek episodes, but across a season they managed to do it in such a way that feels very obvious and hard to miss.

Give them Andor instead of Ahsoka; they need to make more content that speaks to the universal human condition and less about the cool worlds and characters they’ve got. The people want Squid Game and Severance, not another cinematic universe.

Sign me up for more Billups!

“On my last week [working on Discovery], I approved the Starfleet uniforms, which they tossed out, and rejected the Klingons, which they kept.” Notably, both the Discovery uniforms and the Klingons from that era proved to be controversial with fans

That’s the big what-if for me out of this article: what if disco had klingons that didn’t become radioactive to so much of the audience?

The whole klingon war felt like it happened in a single episode or two and I wonder how much of that was them concluding they made an ugly-sonic and tossing it.

Maybe we would have seen more Ash Tyler and less Book, who knows 🤷‍♀️

Bottom one looks like Enterprise D with no neck or arms.

I wonder if it came with the emergency saucer sep package?

The disappointment and dejection in his voice is perfectly appropriate for AI slop 😎

The ending was perfect!

Thanks for a much appreciated dose of whimsy to start my day 👍

I’m dying, this is a great rundown 😆🤣

I’m dying, this is a great rundown 😆🤣

He pulls back an entire fleet after Worf quotes Kaylee’s Kahless to him, which I felt demonstrated how Gowron deep down values honor.

After that though he decides to give Martok the Flavius Aetius treatment, despite how slimy it is.

Edit: kahless

Edit 2: forgot to agree with you! Ultimately he’s very cartoonish because he goes so hard with his lines and stares. Especially when he threatens to paint the future with blood if the council supports Duras’ heir.

I just looked up the Gowron episodes on memory alpha then looked up the ratings on imdb.

Sorry if I missed some, it’s a sloppy process on mobile.

Also some unexpected glory of my own

Ya I’ll have some of that please.

Federation outsiders serving a gleaming resort planet find out their day-to-day exploits are being broadcast to the entire quadran

Ok not bad, Acapulco is a funny show about working in a resort so I can sorta imagine it in space. Not as sure about the Punkd angle, but I’m remaining optimistic.

Ooh, I see what you did there and I like it

Do you hear the cry of the rope calling you to jump, calling you to glory like a Klingon?

Starfleet going around to other worlds to fix and moralize about other peoples’ problems, but never needing to self-reflect or improve on themselves.

There are a few PTSD episodes that at least try : Picard at the chateau and Archer on shore leave after the Xindi adventure.

I feel these are the best episodes where a character realizes they have changed and not for the better, but I wish there were more.

Maybe trek is sleeping on the post-adventure recontextualization power of a shore leave coda?
