I’m hoping that Animated Pike has really tall hair that subtly gets taller with each scene.

Director: “Now we can’t make Boimler’s hair too purple, that might make things too cartoony.”

If you’re an old-school Star Trek fan and you haven’t watched SNW, you are truly depriving yourself of something amazing.

SNW nails the feel of the best of Star Trek, it’s optimistic with loads of allegory and they remembered to turn on the lights while filming. Plus, it’s episodic (with continuing subplots) and not a ten-hour movie broken up.

We didnt see the Pike Episodes of Discovery and went right into the SNW with no problems.  They very much make it accessible.

Lower Decks takes place after The Next Generation, Strange New Worlds is set on the Enterprise before Kirk takes over. So there’s most likely time travel shenanigans, which I think Jonathan Frakes (directing this episode) has confirmed. 

how dare you insult the man’s wonderful hair?

Ignoring the absolute slander on Pike’s Peak, I think any awkwardness from the Lower Decks crossover episode is probably because of how difficult comedic timing can be - this is a primarily dramatic trailer stitching together clips for a primarily dramatic show, the little snippits of comedy aren’t going to work as…

Damn, that lady got Sam Jackson’ed.

This looks dumber than fuck. There opening weekend.

Anything below at min $25 these days is disgraceful. Annual reminder for folks, unionize, workers rights, all that stuff. These CEO’s ain’t shit without us, and they all know it. 

Outsourcing to Kenya and paying them $2 per hour is disgraceful. But what is equally disgraceful is that the minimum wage in Kansas is $7.25!

I’d argue from a storytelling perspective they’ve invoked Janeway’s name too many times for her to NOT show up. 

Terry Matalas has talked about his idea for a “Next Next Generation” spinoff with Seven, Sidney LaForge, Jack, etc. Everyone assumed it would be set on the Titan, but it wouldn’t surprise me if the Titan is sacrificed in the finale and the Enterprise-D becomes the Federation flagship again (it’s old, but Starfleet…

FOR REAL! Does that woman age?
