S31 will be S31 in name only, like most of STD. They clearly like names of things rather than the things themselves.
Yeah, I agree with this. It feels too early to get Section 31 involved, though they might not necessarily be chasing it at full throttle next season, they could have just very well planted the seeds to be expanded on in later seasons. But Section 31 kinda subverts the core message of Trek, and with this version on Trek, where that message hasn't been fully established, I think it'll end up doing more harm to the storytelling than good. It's hard to resist going gritty, because gritty and conflict makes for addicting television, but Trek hasn't ever really been afraid to be a little different.Exactly, S-31 has to be handled with extreme care and requires a restrained hand. I don't see the Discovery writing team up for the task. S-31 is very alluring as it can allow a writer to go off the deep end of Trek, chasing down grim dark stories with notions of the greater good. In this way, they might either end up disparaging the actual utopian optimism of Star Trek or just turn the organization into plain villains.
Faith of the heart.Maybe a shorter season is what they need to get their story telling more razor sharp. Ah who am I kidding...
I just need more Trek
Oh... we're gonna learn more about that Robotic crew-man person, great.
And the new season will deal with FAITH?
May the Prophets walk with you, child
Jason Isaacs was obviously trolling. It'll most likely be late 2018 or early 2019. They start filming in April, the first episodes airing this year is realistic.We don't have a date yet. Jason Isaacs teased a possible 2020 date, but take that with a very large pinch of salt. Most estimates that I've seen seem to be going with some point in 2019.
Been that way since TOS.Every Star Trek show throws in fan service they just can't help themselves.
been that way since TtNG

I see, TOS obviously couldn't do that but bringing back Khan in Star Trek 2 probably counts.
He'd better... he directed one of the better eps of the 2nd half of the season
They'll probably release it a few weeks before season 2 starts.Still no word on a Season 1 disk release...that sucks I was really hoping for a 4K disk set.
Honestly I can't really form an opinion on this. There is The Mummy Kurtzman (hasn't it been said Tom Cruise had an insane amount of control over that film and what was done with it, etc) and then there is Alias and Fringe Kurtzman. Since Discovery is a TV show I'm be wiling to lean toward this turning out okay. We don't know what episode 1 of season 2 will be like either. So I'm in wait and see mode until that first trailer drops but the team behind Discovery has earned a lot of trust and faith from me."Alex Kurtzman To Direct Season 2 Premiere Of 'Star Trek: Discovery'"

There was a "real" Trill in the show. Final episode, blink and you miss it. They don't linger the camera a lot of the "oh here's this" stuff. There are exceptions. For me, it got me out of my damn iPad while I watch, so I guess that's a good thing. I'd really gotten into that habit over the past few years.Wasn't a real Trill. Holographic spots tho so it was just a human trying to sneak by in plain sight.
I am good with the focused stuff. Even then, they still manage to both drag ass and barge around at the same time. I do miss some of the old Trek where they'd take time to focus on the life of a particular character, but I also admit that all of that development went to pot on most of the shows when they'd promptly forget every damn thing they learned about themselves as soon as the end credits rolled.13 episodes for season 2 is kind of a bummer. I felt like 15 really wasn't enough. Eh oh well.
Already posted a week ago but thanks again for sharing for those that missed it :)
Still looks way better than the hot rod Enterprise.Photos from the 2019 Star Trek Calendar have a better look at Discovery's Enterprise.

he gets injured in a training mission saving cadets. A few years after Kirk takes command of the Enterprise, so still 12 or so years from Discovery's timeRemind me how Pike ends up in the wheelchair communicating with beeps? Is that still to come where Discovery is in the timeline?
Zachary Quinto as Spock please. Probably won't happen to prevent universe confusion.
