This I am definitely looking forward to watching. I have been into sci-fi since elementary school and TOS was an excellent example of how working together for the common good could succeed. It was as much the interpersonal understanding as it was the science that made it ahead of its time.

"Co-executive producer Akiva Goldsman added that while she couldn't take credit for pioneering the expression that this is the longest pilot series, she still loves it. "I'll say it anyway," she said in the same panel. "

Akiva's a guy 🤦‍♂️
 
That moment you realize that the Federation is communist.
"Money doesn't exist in the Federation. We work for the mutual benefit of mankind"

They use credits. The only thing socialist about them is everyone gets a place to stay, and food on the table. Other than that, if you want to get anywhere you work, that gives you credits which you spend on the nicer things in life. Considering this is similar to how credit cards work, and the you earn more for working more, and you can buys stuff and make new stuff, I fail to see how this has anything to do with communism.

As for the new show, if it spits in the face of fans like Discovery did, and breaks canon in every scene, and has super poor writing like Discovery, then it will likely get lousy ratings just like Discovery does.

I'm just hoping they write good stories with good characters. Discovery has to many pushed agendas. Be diverse but be realistic as well. Please get rid of the constant pausing for effect moments and all the crying in space. I dont think the crew of the Discovery could defend against 10 Klingon toddlers let alone save the galaxy.

I’ve been following Star Trek for 57 years and never have I ever had to pay extra for a single series. Of course I want like hell to see Strange New Worlds the backstory of my hero Captain Pike. But I refuse to pay an extra $5.99US/month (I’m from Canada so it’ll be more) for what should automatically be included in the series. Never paid it for Discovery, never paid it for Picard or any other Star Trek series. My cable bill is already high enough. This is just utter greed playing off the hearts of Star Trek fans knowing we’ll all want to see it. The network should be ashamed!
