But the main questions is: how many of them'd be men?

Also, 'Cubed'd be a happy customer, since I bet it will feature few Lesbians.

I needed to check Memory Alpha to make it clear if this means any current crew will be replaced because of this.
Bryce, the communications officer, is male. So I'm guessing he's getting booted. Here's a picture in case you forgot what he looks like:
Spoiler:

... Eh... Who am I kidding? The vast majority of the regular STD bridge crew have such minor roles you'd be hard pressed to remember them. The fact that they literally had to force some drama for a few of them shows how much of an afterthought they really are as characters. Can't wait for Bryce to be given a major role for literally one episode before he ****s off...

So...the whole bridge is captain, helm, and ops? I guess Spock wasn't a member of the bridge crew because he was at the non-bridge post of "science station".

Because no one will believe Star Trek is progressive unless the senior staff is exclusively female?

Sigh.

I'm suspecting Tilly is filling both the "science station" role as well as 1st officer.

Well of course Ensign Tilly has to be 1st Officer, none of the virtually unknown but named bridge crew could fill the role. We don't really know them at all.

This has to be the most "closed" Star Trek cast since maybe TOS. And by that I mean there was a very distinct gap between main characters Kirk, Bones and Spock and the secondary cast of Scotty, Sulu, Ohura, and Chekov...especially in the series, BUT we at least still got to know them. I know next to nothing about Detmer, Owosekun, Rhys or Bryce (I had to google the Discovery Bridge Crew...)

Completely agree. Although I feel like the NX-01 Enterprise cast was pretty divided, too.

Detmer flys good, Owosekun came from Mennonites, and... that's all we've got.

Not as closed as the STD cast. But that's a fair point. Mostly ENT revolved around Archer, T'Pol, and Trip. They barely did anything with Reed or Sato, and they CRIMINALLY underused Mayweather, who was sort of lost in the role of "completely non-threatening black male #308." In the beginning they tried to do something with making him the latest in the line of pioneers in space... but then they sort of just lost interest in it. They didn't do a TON with Phlox, but they did enough that I never felt he was ever underused.

But TOS? Let's be honest. That revolved 100% around Kirk, Spock, and Bones. There wasn't like episodes devoted to Uhura or Chekov or anything. Sulu? All we come out of TOS knowing about him is that maybe he took some fencing classes once, maybe. It wasn't until TNG until we started to see equal opportunity episodes. I'd venture ENT did way more than TOS to "spread the love" throughout various crewmembers... and 20000% more than STD.

I dunno, I feel like I got to know Scotty, Sulu, Uhura, and Chekov way more than I ever got to know Mayweather or Hoshi. But the movies probably have something to do with that.

But yeah, TOS was Kirk/Spock/McCoy with Scotty sometimes, and ENT was Archer/T'Pol/Tucker with Phlox sometimes.

And sadly, DIS is just Burnham. All the motherfucking time, Burnham. Even when it's about other characters like Saru (remember when he was supposedly dying in Season 2) it's STILL about Burnham and how she feels about it.

Burnham is the worst character in the worst Star Trek show.

So season four's trailer is here and they've, top to bottom, totally revamped it. Logos and outfits etc. Almost an entirely different show now. It doesn't have a clue what it wants to be at this point.

Why? This idiot done nothing, but ruined everything related to Star Trek.
Is it his wokeness? Or his good at sucking dicks of some important people (literally or figuratively)?
