Star Trek: Starfleet Academy (2024)
 

So just more STD people and no Matalas. And when is this even set? Is this going to be Instructor Tilley in the 31st century? Good luck with that, if so. And the showrunner is Noga Landau, only known for the cancelled CW Nancy Drew show? Again with the CW people? Oh boy...

I remember this show being rumored since the Enterprise days around 2005, I guess it took them long enough to finally do it. The first few scenes of Star Trek 2009 are a nice enough glimpse what a Star Trek series set in essentially college of the future would be like.

Don't forget the Star Trek: Academy CD-ROM game from the 90s. Starring Shatner and Christopher Plummer. I actually forgot Plummer was in it as General Chang.



You see how he got his eyepatch.

Well both Disco and Picard have been announced to be finishing. So hopefully this will just replace Disco and that they are saving Terry Matalas for the whatever series replaces Picard. Hopefully Legacy/Titan. I would assume they'll announce that soon enough when Picard finishes up. Or sooner First contact day April/05.

As for SFA, if it's set in the 32rd century and a direct sequel to Disco, I can happily, skip that.

Maybe it follows Picard's long haired Aussie Romulan mate.

****, just give us Engineering professor Miles O'Brien and I'll end up watching!

I think this would work better as an animated series, in the style of prodigy. If it's live action I think it runs the risk of becoming Felicity in Space.

Also confirmed is Tawny Newsome (Lower Deck's voice of Mariner) is among the writers

Who has never written anything before beyond a 2 minute... something, if IMDB is to be taken at face value. So pretty much all women creatively, across the board. Seems like, well, a choice.

So it looks like it's going to have Robert Picardo. Presumably reprising The Doctor, in the 30th century.

It might be the copy of the Doctor who wound up in the future separated from Voyager in that one episode, rather than the main Doctor. This is in the future after all.

They've probably never even seen that episode.

Never mind, no reason to get excited about The Doctor.

STD: The Sequel.

It takes place in the 32nd century, So it has some of the cast from STD, Also Robert Picardo is back as the Doctor somehow, But he was a hologram, So maybe in the 32 century they figured out how to keep him around for a long time.

You saw VOY, right? He has a mobile emitter. He can go anywhere and if he looks older it's because he wants to look older.

I know about the mobile emitter, But this is the 32nd century, Maybe is something more, Perhaps they were able to put him an some android body or something.

As big as he was about "hologram rights" and as hard as he fought it would seem somewhat counter-productive for him to just one day go "nah, let's be an android instead."

Though if this show is big into identity politics (and we have every reason to think it will be) then who knows... maybe you're right. Maybe The Doctor will find "his true inner self" or something B.S. like that.

But no, he's almost certainly still a hologram. One of the main young characters is a hologram so doubtless The Doctor will be there to give them sagely advice.

OMFG that trailer reeks of the chlorine spunk of STD.

The comments on the trailer make me happy.

When was the last time Star Trek was truly relevant? The early 90s? Only the original show and The Next Generation seem to have been hits, perhaps the 2009 reboot movie for a few months. Since then it's just been an irrelevant franchise. No one in the world cares about this franchise.
It'll continue to try to do new things to find a new audience and perhaps fail at it, they're not interested in doing something the nerds who are hardcore fans will enjoy that's too small of a market and no matter what they release they know most of that audience will check it out regardless.

When it was still good. When it stopped being good people stopped caring.
