"New STAR TREK series STRANGE NEW WORLDS has got a launch date of May 5th over at Paramount + and the first poster! It is interesting that the series has already been renewed for a second season. It will follow episodic adventures of the Enterprise's original crew long before James T. Kirk was captain. Anson Mount, Rebecca Romjin, and Ethan Peck will be returning as Captain Pike, Number One, and Spock Celia Rose Gooding will play Uhura, Babs Olasanmokun will play Dr. M'Benga, and Jess Bush will play Christine Chapel; new characters on the bridge include Christina Chong as La'an Noonien-Singh, Melissa Navia as Erica Ortegas, and Bruce Horak as Hemmer. With other series in the franchise, Discovery and Picard proving a disappointment with the fans, the audience is having high hopes for this one which will have episodic stories rather than having a seasonal plot. That is something that we haven't seen in 17 years ever since Enterprise finished." link YouTube link

Why would Christine Chapel be on the Enterprise in the pre-Kirk days? |

Ah, another series I won't be able to see……… |

No 2 son has shared his Apple TV with me so I now get the chance to watch it – once I finish Ted Lasso |

M'Benga turned into a woman. |

M'Benga has not been turned into a woman, the actor Babs is a man, considering the ethos that Star Trek wanted to establish and perpetuate, some of you seem to relish tearing new science fiction a new one whether it deserves it or not. |

I don't have a good feeling about this one either. Remember what they did with Discovery and Picard. Simply awful. They need a Favreau/Filloni type duo to rescue the franchise. |

I want to watch this, and Picard, and am hoping they dont suffer the same fate, in the UK, as Discovery. |

Our Esteemed Editor asked - Why would Christine Chapel be on the Enterprise in the pre-Kirk days? Why would she not? She was assigned to Medical, not necessarily with Dr. McCoy. In fact, given her familiarity with all the equipment in the medical bay which has been underlined in canon, she seems to have served there long before McCoy arrived, who is of course linked with Kirk. Pike had a different senior medical officer. |

I want to see a prequel series set aboard a faithful reproduction of the original 1960's Enterprise. Then, have incredibly strong writing, without time travel or deus ex machina endings. Also, no love triangles, wokeness, or androids yearning to be more human. Just rollicking high-seas, wagon train to the stars adventure! |

Spock, Urhura and Chapel. There's GOING to be a love triangle. 😀 |

More woke girl-power sexual deviant crapola from CBS. Even if I had access to it, which I do not, hard pass, not watching that propaganda. |

STRANGE NEW WORLDS ADS "Although he is to guest star only in season 2, Paramount + has unveiled a photo of Paul Wesley as young Captain Kirk in STAR TREK: STRANGE NEW WORLDS series which starts May 5 with Anson Mount as Christopher Pike, who captained the U.S.S. Enterprise before Kirk took over. Rebecca Romijn stars as Number One and Ethan Peck as Science Officer Spock! It is not known how will Kirk be incorporated into the story."

"long before James T. Kirk was captain" Wouldn't Nurse Chapel and so on, be a little young to be in Star Fleet? |

I liked "Picard" it was nice to see the TNG crew again. Discovery isn't Star Trek. |
