Not a reboot, more a continuation with most of the same cast. But the characters aged with the actor.

I stand corrected.

But in one image the Drookmani has an apparent implant?

Fun fact. Canadian Thanksgiving originated in the old CofE harvest thanksgiving but got secularized, made statutory and fixed on the second Monday in October.

Pondering…🤔

If they are giving a special showing of Lower Decks S4E8 at NYCC, will it get the early release on Paramount+ and appear as a ‘special event on CTV Sci-Fi Channel?

Also, if they are promoting ‘news for Star Trek fans in attendance’, what do we hope to see?

  • release of Discovery S5 new trailer?

  • news on Saving Prodigy!

  • announcement of longer season for SNW S3?

Not just Bagey, not just assorted evil AI escapees from Daystrom security, but assimilated Klingons and Binars too.

Fun!

And perhaps a win for Rutherford?

Just realized that pricing is shown only in the body of the email.

Here’s a screenshot.

Thanks for asking.

I’m the same with screencaps.

We may have noticed. 🤫

Tempted to meet your facetiousness, but given how obtuse Paramount’s senior executives are, I’ll just say #SaveStarTrekProdigy.

One of the things that I consider most important about these sales is that the discount is being borne by the retailer and the publisher.

The contracted tie-in writers still get their full (if small) payment per book. Author @DavidMack@wanderingshop and others have confirmed this point in social media posts.

So, it’s your opportunity to get Treklit content at affordable prices while still ensuring creators are compensated.

Be ready for mid 20th attitudes, special effects and theatrics style production…and camp.

At nearly 60 years old, TOS is actually more bearable for me again than it was watching it in the 1990s - 30 years in it seemed cringey.

But what it does have is wild and trippy Star Trek energy, the kind of vibe SNW is recapturing for modern audiences. Lower Decks too.

TNG was going for a more professional cerebral vibe, and less fun. It was a nice contrast to TOS, but it’s nice to have something new with that vibe. Voyager really leaned into the weird in its journey across the Delta Quadrant, but played it straight more often than not.
