    Paramount+ Star Trek: Discovery - Official Thread

    To a point, I can understand their reasoning. Look at the numbers the last two shows actually brought in - on a minor network that ended up getting sucked into another minor (although, now maintaining a better position) network. Somehow, I just don't see a weekly Star Trek show drawing the...

    "Twin Peaks" got pushed back too, if I recall. Making it's initial announcement in October 2014 for a 2016 airing, only to be pushed to the first half of 2017. Filming supposedly finished last April. How much CGI do you think that show needs? ;)

    That concept always looked like the Enterprise and a Star Destroyer had a baby. I remember the old concept art too. Even as a kid, I thought it was to spot-on trying to look like Star Wars.

    I don't care if that first episode turns out to be the best thing since the invention of the wheel, I'm not adding another subscription service to my monthly expenses for just one show. We just cut our cable bill near in half going to satellite (a lot of things my family watches is still not...

    Sounds interesting, but not sure how I feel about it yet. Still not going to add another subscription service just to see it. Hopefully, it will have other outlets soon after initial airings/streamings/whatever.

    I saw that and loved it. He's not afraid to berate his own home network.

    Abrams did have something like that in mind. Thing is, for something like that to work, Star Trek needs a leader to head it all up. Once upon a time, that was Roddenberry. And, all for the hatred he has among a lot of fans, Berman carried that torch quite well for a while before running it...

    I sense a backlash against CBS brewing in the blogosphere. One tech site, Engadget, has an article from a Star Trek fan who is refusing to get another streaming service just to watch it. I think there will be more of those types of statements leading up to this show premiering. Will it be...

    Not too happy about it being on yet another streaming service that I'm not subscribed to. Pretty soon, all the streaming services that you have to subscribe to just to get everything you might want to see will end up costing more in total than cable alone does. Now, if CBS decides to show it...
