I found it interesting that in recent articles quoting Kate Mulgrew on her conditions for Janeway to return in live action, the thing she most stressed was that she had told Alex Kurtzman that the quality of the writing would have to be meticulous.
She’s very happy with the writing for Janeway in Prodigy but sounds like she needs to be convinced that it would be the same in live action.
Old timer here. It’s easy to be a completionist when you do it over decades.
Just watched them all as they came out for the most part, after starting somewhere mid season one of TOS. With the reruns, I was soon caught up.
But I always argue strongly that whatever show grabs someone most is the best place to start for them. There’s no ‘best’ way and some of the shows reach different demographics better or worse.
Our teenage kids have never made it through every episode of TOS or Enterprise, and balk at DS9. Each has watched every episode of at least one of the newer shows, but not the same ones. But they find different ones more interesting as they mature.
I have thought ‘Move Along Home’ was great since first broadcast.
DS9 hadn’t yet locked into its eventual tone, but I hold to my view that it’s an episode that wouldn’t have raised the ire of the ‘Dignity of Trek’ on just about any of the other shows in the franchise.
Congratulations on completing them. Nice results sincerely.
It’s here in Canada on digital via AppleTV.
Blue Brixx quality is comparable, certainly better than the Lego sets 10-15 years ago when our teens were really into them. (Fewer Lego models just fall apart in your hands after building them now.) Blue Brixx is a serious hobby brand in the EU.
Lego chose Star Wars over Star Trek, but at least there’s something out there even if the North American distribution is limited.
Just going to say that any meme that has Kes and Neelix in the same frame is always going to trigger my gag reflex, all the more one that reminds up that they once attempted to be parents together.
Also @GoodAaron@startrek.website has confirmed on his Mastodon account that CTV continues to retain the licence but the EPs didn’t have any news on when it might run either.
I have to wonder if there are any standard ‘use it or lose it’ clauses that crystallize after a certain point in the contracts for streaming licences.
I enjoyed it. It helped me see how Georgiou’s had already begun her journey even before season two of Discovery and it was a fun ride.
Simon & Schuster has been careful to select the best of its established ‘Relaunch Novelverse’ group of authors to write the tie-in books for its new live-action shows.
If you like the action focus of John Jackson Miller’s other tie-in fiction for Star Trek or other franchises, you’ll definitely like this one.
Definitely above average among Trekbooks, but there are some outstanding by some of the others that would place higher.
Emony (the gymnast) appears prominently in the Discovery novel ‘Die Standing’ that tells MU Georgiou’s journey between seasons one and two.
In the book, Emony had a covert identity as an operative for Starfleet Intelligence and was paired with Georgiou for a mission.
So, I have been hoping that Emony might appear in the S31 event movie.
While Chase Masterson’s Leeta took on Emony’s identity in the Trill zhian’tara ritual, there’s no reason to think she couldn’t be very different looking than Chase. So I am hoping Emony might be one of the yet-to-be-named female main characters.

The TAS-era Kzinti, relentless, refuse to concede their 1970s hot pink and purple to any Earther

What can I say, all that pink and purple just seems to be meant to be together.
Credit again to Trek Core for their excellent TAS BlueRay screencap library.
Editing to add: love Barbie, pleased to see the movie out earning most of the comic heroes, always glad that TAS and Prodigy make themselves appealing across genders.

Paramount Global appears to be at the end of selling major assets - BET+ is off the market

In the midst of Barbie-pink dominance, TAS would like a word.
Star Trek’s own home of pink, purple and lime green has something to say.
And people wonder why the Titan-A’s holodeck Ten Forward program ran when the ship was power rationed…Or, how many space anomalies does it take before Starfleet mandates failsafes?
This is also raising questions of foreign interference/influence in democratic process.
