I imagine that the actions shown in enterprise changed the future.
Why not just say the events of TNG, DS9 and Voyager never happened while you're at it?
Obviously you'd need a good reason, but I think the writers would fuck that up less than what you're proposing. It doesn't have to just be "eh it's not great" it could be some players in the background trying to take over, but without the time travel.
Current TNG/DS9/Voyager only happens because of what Archer did basically.
Whatever the reason it'll be poor. The show does not have good writing. It'll be some dramatic reveal that is super shallow and falls apart if you think about it.
Kinda makes me wish I got the steelbook, but the discs in the season 1 steelbook were always loose in there.
I hope we get the new Short Treks in the UK eventually, really looking forward to seeing them. Also very excited for more Discovery down the line. Fantastic show in season 1, got even better with season 2 when they left all that Klingon stuff behind (don't enjoy Klingon focused episodes in any Trek series).
I like the art styles they went with for the animated sorts. I imagine the Nick show will look similar to "The Girl Who Made the Stars" style since they said that show will be CG. I'm really looking forward to these two.
Won't be able to really watch "Ask Not" until later unless I can sneak in a watch on my lunch break.

Yeah I like the art style, when I heard CGI I pictured really cheap crappy looking CGI like on morning kids shows but that looks good.
Yeah that was the weakest short trek so far, would have been better if it was someone from TOS that we'd know.
Maybe they will use the new characters in the Short Trek to build the cast of a Pike spinoff but I doubt that's the plan at the moment if the show isn't even in development
Have they confirmed that there is no Pike show in development?
If that happens this would be a slightly better episode
They've basically hinted they want to do it. Even if it is in development, it wouldn't come out for a while, after season one of the Section 31 show
This was a really short episode.
Looking forward to next month's though.
I suspect they're waiting to see how receptive Picard will be before starting new projects.
There's 6 announced Star Treks right now.
Disco
Picard
(S31)
Lower Decks
Animated Trek show for Kids.
Starfleet Academy
examination/test supposed to last only like 4 minutes?

They still have the sets so they're intending to do something with them.

Starfleet Academy was the josh schwartz and stephanie savage show. they are doing dynasty and nancy drew currently and have a deal with apple.
I guess it was never officially announced.
It's under development at some point though, and these things don't always make it through that stage.
And Nancy Drew on the CW so they've got their hands pretty full.
What was the last update on Section 31, because honestly I think they should just can that in favor of a Pike show.
Is supposed to start filming after Disco S3 I think which should be soon
Honestly if it was ds9 section 31 I'd be interested, but after what happened with discovery I think I could live with the show being pulled and handled by different writes waaaay in the future.
It is already well into development, I'm pretty sure a writer's room was formed
I have no interest on the show as the story end with Discovery, neither care for its characters. Of course it may surprise me, but I would rather have a Pike show, which probably happens if the interest on previous shows be good, including Section 31. I hate its success or not can dictate Pike's show.
No, I want to see them further attempt redemption of Space Hitler. That's what Trek is about right, showing that Hitler isn't all bad?
I am fucking amazed they think this is acceptable. I get they wanna keep Michelle Yeoh around, but using Space Hitler who is just a Trek representation of real Hitler is nuts.
Well, it is obvious that will keep doing shows and seasons as long people are watching them. Also, franchise saturation is a thing, and there are a lot of Star Trek shows being developed. They make take a failure of a show, like if Section 31 flops, as a sign that they reach a limit and should scale down, not launching new shows like an Enterprise one. That my personal option, but I don't think Section 31 can carry a multiple season show.
That'd be nice, and since CBS wants Trek shows year round they could follow the end of season 1 of S31 with season 1 of Pike.
Okay, yeah, that Short Trek really felt like a character introduction for a Pike show.
