Star Trek Discovery
-
I am a HUGE Star Trek, and not just because I am 6'5" tall. I can throw down with anyone on Star Trek knowledge, and usually leave them in awe. This series was suppose to start this January. However it has been pushed back 3 or 4 times now. It was originally going to be placed in the Star Trek timeline after Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country but before STTNG. There has been infighting between the producers, directors, etc. After the January launch delayed, it was then March. After that it got pushed back to summer. Then this is the first I heard about the fall release date.

Why couldn't they have pushed it back even further? To something like the start of the federation or figuring out the warp drive / interstellar travel? That could have pushed them back 100 years and given them plenty of room to grow into the Star Trek universe that we know.

Isn't that what Enterprise has already done?

Didn't watch Enterprise. Guess I have more homework to do.

@scottalanmiller you are correct. Enterprise, which I really liked for so many reasons ended with the formation of the Federation. I really didn't like the last episode.

I'm just a couple episodes into it. Too early to really be into it yet.

I could not finish watching the show because of the Temporal Cold War crap. Just too much gimmick.

That would have been a really good place for a show in the middle of the time line. You have almost everything except the Borg available.
Even the Cardassians and the Bajoran (as an enslaved race).

I siltl want to finish watching it, just low on my list.

@scottalanmiller Hang in there. It really starts picking up about half way through the 1st season. The last episode was just a little over the top imho.

@JaredBusch That is a good example of a good idea implemented poorly, in my opinion. There was potential there but it just didn't play out well with how they wrote it.

That was me not Scott. And I made it to the beginning of Season 3.
