I think the issue with prodigy it was animated and for a children/ya audience. Plus maybe wants to gear towards an adult audience. O forgot they have the section 31 show as well.

Yea SNW is doing very well for them

If that is a Matalas show, I hope it never happens. The way Prodigy was treated doesn't make them seem confident with Trek.

Given what we've heard about how Matalas doesn't even work for Paramount anymore, I think if #StarTrekLegacy happens (lol), it'll be handed off to someone else like how they brought in Henry Alonso Myers out of nowhere for SNW.

Honestly, the only truly bad showrunners seem to have been Matalas, Chabon, and the two chucklefucks to who initially ran Disco after Fuller was sacked.

Kurtzman knows he kinda sucks at the hands-on stuff and is more than happy to just play studio politics to get his shows made. Paradise is a workhorse who gets poo poo done on time and on budget, even if it kinda errs on being dull. Goldsman can apparently be kinda great if he’s partnered with someone who can keep him in line.

HAM, McMahan, and the Hagemans are utterly fantastic though and their love of what they do is infectious.

I hope the first scene is some ensign giving random reports and casually says "M'talas Prime was overrun by space nazis, so starfleet had it obliterated" in between the progress of grain shipments and an update on who won the ship's talent contest.

She was low-key into tabletop games like kal-toh and kadis-kot. She also tried learning the piano at some point, which hosed up her Borg brain implants, but I don’t think that was followed up on after that particular episode was over.

She liked playing board games with Neelix, Naomi, Icheb and Tuvok. Maybe she has to infiltrate and in a high stakes Kadis Kot tournament Casino Royale style in one episode, and Jack plays the Vesper Lynd to her James Bond?

I like the idea of 7 as a Captain because it would be a person who isn't totally human and while a great example of Federation ideals can also put people off given her past.

Also Jeri Ryan is cool.

Yeah, a post-Picard show featuring Seven as a captain I am not opposed to at all, just keep Terry Matalas the hell away from it for god's sake.

A nasty woman, I think you should try is, Jess.


With how big trad gaming has gotten they could do one or two episodes a season with weird tabletop games that work into plots either thematically or a legit aliens communicating during a D&D-alike session episode (yet another reason to bring back Shaw and even Tuvok or Neelix or special guest gamer Tuvix) Heck I don't even care that Lower Decks did it first, make it so canon the youtubers cry

Plus the big tournament equals aliens will join the Federation plot, Jack lost the ship gambling so now Seven and Crash have to win it back by becoming Candyland Pros, Ensign Bajoran Guy's son is trapped in Roblox, just a ton of things to make it a thing that grows thematically out of established character traits and 24/25th century culture

I can't believe they killed off Shaw, the best part of Picard. He would have been a great addition to any 7of9 show as a foil or friend depending on how he feels that day.

First episode of Legacy is Seven working with temporal starfleet from Voyager again to undo all the events of Picard S1-3 but through time techno babble everyone on the show still ends up being part of the crew on her ship, now called the USS Picard in honor of Picard who died from whatever was killing him in Picard S1. Rios and Shaw are alive still and also there.

I still lol over how they walked back literally everyone's deaths post-facto so no one actually died in Season 3.

Idk if this has been brought up before, but whatever happened to chief Kyle? He wasn't in this season at all, but he was name dropped a couple times.

They even had a different transport person in the first episode I think, but after that we didn't see either of them again.
Kyle was replaced by Jay. They're both light-skinned, black-haired, skinny folk with few lines and fewer seconds on-screen so it's OK that nobody notices.

Although apparently he trained with her to ready a good Scottish accent and then turned up on set and they were immediately like 'too strong, you have to tone it down a bunch', so it's not as authentic as it could have been.

Pegg's accent is actually quite good (source: am Scottish) but it sounds like an ex-pat. He sounds like Ewan McGregor, a guy who's worked/lived abroad or with North Americans for long enough that some of the edges have been filed off the accent.
