I haven't been following this thread but I just want to vent somewhere how stupid it was that Burnham and what's his face decided that, when the aliens clearly did not understand the situation with the cat and were getting increasingly angry, they should both in unison say that the cat is a queen. Why did they think the aliens would understand their inside joke about the cat being a queen?

This one time, I hosed up a whole first contact by beaming my dog down with me to take a leak. Burnham: Hold my beer

The one thing I feel was excellent about Discovery was their Season 3 recap at the beginning. I had a minor itch to rewatch some of it, and that recap scratched it perfectly.

There will inevitably be a Star Trek 14 and I'm curious if they're gonna stay in the TOS JJverse, try to reboot TNG, or what. I don't think any of the new series have the cultural cachet for Hollywood legs though a feature length animated LD would be the comedy option.

I’m still skeptical that another movie gets made They have been going through multiple writers to make a script and nothing has been approved

Again, the clipping through walls thing is a missed opportunity. A ship made of programmable matter type tech should be able to eject any sized ship from it's docks. Should look more like an egg leaving a cloaca or a bolus from the throat though.

Not enough (or anything at all really) is being made of all the weird future tech Daniels had with him on ENT, or that ruined TARDIS-like time pod thing. Book's transforming ship and programmable matter are less interesting to me than a shuttle with secret dimensional compartments or Daniels' bracelet that let him walk through walls.

Big Mean Jerk posted:Once again this all could have been solved by not making the show a streaming exclusive just to try and inflate subscriber numbers for your lovely streaming service and just, I dunno, actually shown it on the real tv network that far more people have access to. It would have been canceled almost immediately if it was on network TV, at least with All Access/ Paramount+ they can lie about the viewer count.

That's because the future setting exists soley to free them from being a prequel/concurrent with the other series and for little other narrative or conceptual reason. Except for lines here and there about getting the Federation back together there was no functional difference between this setting and that of any other Star Trek show in the last episode.

I kind of wish they had picked 5 or 10 years after the burn instead of 120 or whatever it is, when the event would be fresh in everyone's mind and Starfleet is in full freefall trying to piece together a working operation out of mothballed ships and the 5% of officers that were on shore leave that day

No. They only went into the future, they just went to a period where the Burn happened 120 years ago historically.
