SPOILERS: Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, it's happening

[sparks_190e]

Announced today... A new show by CBS continuing the adventures of Captain Pike and co from Discovery, which is going to be hopefully amazing. I loved S2 of Discovery.

Problem is because it's set on the Enterprise, so called fans are going to moan that it doesn't look exactly like it did on the TV series made over 50 years ago.

Personally, I can't wait!

It would suck if it looked like TOS.

For me I loved Discovery, firmly felt Picard was 80% garbage purely made for fan service, but I concur that the best thing about Discovery was Pike and co, and the stunning retcon of the original Enterprise and it's sets etc. I'm putting some faith into this one being what we've actually all been waiting for.

Surely making something that appeals to the fans is a very good thing? Even more so she. It is a franchise as large and successful as “Star Trek”. In fact it makes you wonder why any rational person would want to produce any form of Star Trek which doesn’t appeal to the enormous fan base...

I guess for me Picard was just a bit of nostalgia that was mostly terribly written, acted and produced. But that's a discussion for another thread.

Episodes one and two were great, episode three utter dog st.

Why has episode 4 not been released today?

Because it’s Wednesday, and it airs on Thursday?

I’m sure I read it was Wednesday, never mind!

The US streams are Thursday. The UK ones (several weeks behind) are meant to be Wednesday:

Hmm, then it is a mystery why there isn’t one today.

Think I’ve figured it out. I have P+ via Amazon Prime who don’t release their episodes till either midnight or around 8am. It’s on the dedicated P+ app though.

Watched the fourth one last night. Paramount + on Sky.

It’s still not on Amazon Prime!

[W201_190e]

TNG and DS9 are still brilliant in my opinion, nothing has been as good as them. DS9 turned 30 the other day, makes me feel old!

[W201_190e]

Not sure about this season, I’ve watched the first three episodes. The actress playing the Security officer, Noonien-Singh is a weak aspect. The time travel episode was a bit rubbish.

[W201_190e]

I wish I was making this up… episode 9 is a musical.

[W201_190e]

Way to go to cheapen the franchise.

[W201_190e]

Episode 10 was very very good. It could easily be 2 years before it’s concluded though.
