CBS announced that the rumored Michelle Yeoh spin-off project is now in development. I’m not sure how much interest i have if it’s only about the Empress character.

It was inevitable that some day a Section 31 only show would occur.

Picard show, the Lower Decks cartoon, and Section 31 show. The first two could be good, I have no hope for the third.

Well, of course I know him.

Mirror Georgiou was awful, so of course they’re going to base an entire show around her. I fully expect her appearances in Discovery season 2 to now function as a backdoor pilot.

Is this what people with Star Wars fatigue feel like? Just increasing frustration and bewilderment with every greenlit project?

???¿??????? Star Trek has historically appealed to children already??????? TOS was huge with teen girls!!

Oh wait we're in the era of hyper segregated markets and it'll prob be a CN cartoon that'll disappoint investors because it has the gall to attract girl viewers and not sell enough boy toys

I love how CBS is trying to milk Trek for everything it can like Disney did with Star Wars.

I guess Jar Jar Abrams primed the pump for me not giving a poo poo about a new thing labeled Star Trek. I have zero care about anything new coming up.

It reminds me of like people who blindly buy new albums for musicans they like but just because they super like their old stuff but are fully aware new stuff is different or may suck. Fan's don't have to like something just because it has the brand name on it.

I feel like that's different though because with music artists maybe you can just be a fan of those people, identify with their artistic sensibility, and just are invested in where they are going with their craft. Maybe the new album will suck but you want to tune in because you're invested in the musician's career.

With Star Trek, its now just a brand with basically zero connection to the lineage of creatives that made us fall in love with it.

I could believe a kids-oriented animated show about Starfleet Academy. Follow a group of bright-eyed youngsters of suitably diverse ethnicities as they join Starfleet Academy in the hopes of becoming the best and brightest, and have adventures of the week with occasional guest appearances by show veterans who just need to lend their voices.

I seriously don't get the point of a Star Trek kids show. I grew up watching first run TNG and reruns of TOS and was easy enough to follow along.

Present-day Star Trek product has gore and boobs, so you can’t sell it to children above board. You must fabricate other Star Trek product for that.

Abrams managed to kill both Stars Trek and Wars for me - though the entire corporate ethos of "pump out as much branded product as fast as you can" behind them also contributed. I haven't seen Beyond or Discovery, or Last Jedi or Solo, and really don't feel like I'm missing out on anything. (The me of 10-15 years ago would be utterly shocked to hear that, but things change.)

Animated kid versions of the TNG crew, each episode they have a convoluted plan to turn themselves back into adults and it fails

They also keep turning villains into kids accidentally. Tiny Tomalak. Wee Gul Macet. Baby Bok.

Farscape remains my favourite scifi series, because they actually ran with the 'Space? It'll be full of wierd poo poo' aspect so well. Plus the 'Everyone will treat you like poo poo and you'll get PTSD' consequence.

No, my idea is characters from all Treks as babies at the same daycare. Kirk, Picard, Shran, Ezri, Reed, whoever.
