Jordan aka FltAdmlWolf Posted September 14, 2016 Posted September 14, 2016 A big thread to pull all this stuff together Series delayed to May, 2017: https://www.cnet.com/news/star-trek-discovery-delayed-until-may/ Quote
+ Trellis Vondaryan Posted September 15, 2016 Posted September 15, 2016 To be honest I was kind of expecting something like this. Having it all ready to go by January would be a big ask. I only hope it means it will be a high quality show. 1 Quote

Popular Post Rahman and Rivi Vataix Posted November 30, 2016 Popular Post Posted November 30, 2016 Astromycologist! Hmmm... sounds like a "fungi/fun guy." Okay... 5 1 Quote
Rahman and Rivi Vataix Posted November 30, 2016 Posted November 30, 2016 Some more details from www.ew.com Quote First up: Actor Doug Jones (Hellboy, Falling Skies) will play Lt. Saru, a Starfleet Science Officer and a new alien species to the Star Trekuniverse. Second, Anthony Rapp (Rent, Road Trip) will star as Lt. Stamets, an “astromycologist,” fungus expert, and Starfleet Science Officer aboard the Starship Discovery. Lt. Stamets is the new gay character; previously, Trek icon Lt. Sulu was revealed to be gay in this year’s movie Star Trek Beyond. That was considered a controversial move, however, because it came so late in Sulu’s history, which extends back to the franchise’s original series. 1 Quote
+ Nadeshiko Posted December 4, 2016 Posted December 4, 2016 And Bryan Fuller is no longer involved in any way http://www.newsweek.com/exclusive-bryan-fuller-bittersweet-departure-star-trek-527540 Quote
+ Arturo Maxwell Posted December 5, 2016 Posted December 5, 2016 I'm probably being overly-picky, but when I read this was set about ten years before ST:TOS, I thought "Cool". Then I saw they're bringing in a completely new race my excitement took a bit of a hit. Why do we need a new species in this series? They'll need to be explained away seeing as they've never appeared in any other ST....... Picky, picky, picky...... 2 Quote

Blake Posted January 7, 2017 Posted January 7, 2017 We have a theme. And there's no lyrics in it! 2 Quote
Quinn Reynolds Posted January 7, 2017 Posted January 7, 2017 We also have our leading lady, Sonequa Martin-Green: http://ew.com/article/2016/12/15/star-trek-discovery-walking-dead-sonequa-martin-green/ 4 Quote
Blake Posted January 18, 2017 Posted January 18, 2017 I guess we needed a Sarek? http://www.startrek.com/article/james-frain-joins-discovery-as-sarek 1 Quote
+ Nadeshiko Posted January 20, 2017 Posted January 20, 2017 And now: delayed indefinitely. http://arstechnica.com/the-multiverse/2017/01/star-trek-discovery-gets-stuck-in-spacedock-for-at-least-a-little-longer/ Quote
+ Arturo Maxwell Posted January 21, 2017 Posted January 21, 2017 Looks like a cross between a Federation and a Klingon ship to me..... "Delayed indefinitely" sounds pretty damn ominous. Quote
+ Trellis Vondaryan Posted January 23, 2017 Posted January 23, 2017 As CBS itself said, I'd rather have it be good than rushed. I don't mind waiting as long as it's actually good. Quote
Blake Posted January 23, 2017 Posted January 23, 2017 It's a little late for saying they don't want it rushed, given that they started production in 2016 then set a premiere date for January 2017. Quote
Jordan aka FltAdmlWolf Posted February 1, 2017 Author Posted February 1, 2017 Production has apparently begun. 4 Quote
Blake Posted April 29, 2017 Posted April 29, 2017 We've got more cast to have joined. However, my personal favorite part of the announcement: Rehka Sharma as security officer. I've kept going on about how my main wish for this series was a female security officer and now I got one. Now me as a happy camper will wait patiently for the show jigglinG ON MY CHAIR BECAUSE FEMALE SECURITY OFFICER GUYS FINALLY! ::cough:: Excuse my excitement. 2 Quote
Jordan aka FltAdmlWolf Posted May 17, 2017 Author Posted May 17, 2017 Well, the production values look pretty incredible, I'll give them that. I couldn't glean anything coherent about the story, though. 2 Quote
Theo Whittaker Posted May 18, 2017 Posted May 18, 2017 I almost screamed with joy- the production values are next level. As for the story, I'd quite like to remain in the dark for the time being so I can be thrilled when we finally get to watch it. Sonequa Martin-Green looks great as Lt. Commander Burnham. 3 Quote
