And even it’s nakedly racist (“A contract, is a contract, is a contract-- but only between Ferengi”) and misogynistic (“Females and finances don’t mix.”)

What does that say about capitalism?

1 and 3 are both great, and I’ll go against the grain and say that 4 is pretty mediocre.

Wouldn’t prime!Chekov be like 12 around this time frame?

He may prefer to-- he is himself legally blind, and completely blind in one eye.

Star Trek had a long history of taking cues from capital-T Theater, so a musical was kind of a logical extension of that.

The idea of being able to essentially species change a Klingon into a Human with TOS-era Klingon medical tech sounds impossibly advanced for what the Klingons are known for.

It’s also something that literally happened in a TOS episode that almost everyone saw and liked.

I dug 'em. It was a good experiment in pushing Trek’s aliens beyond a forehead and an accent.

Or, keeping up SNW’s traditions of reviving projects from early in Star Trek’s history, we could finally get M’benga leading a medical frigate in the vein of the Hopeship pitch.

Is there anyone still holding out for a “refit” of the beautiful SNW Enterprise so that it “really” looks like a set from the late 1960s?

Sadly, I can confirm there are.

I concur with your conclusions. In the famous words of Captain Picard, it is possible to make no mistakes and still fail. Tilly did the best she could against a superior opponent, and when the opportunity to turn that defeat around arose, she scraped out a win with casualties minimized, and I think proved herself more prepared for command than the show or fandom generally gave her credit for.

Sadly not yet.

Isn’t Galt the colony the Rozhenkos lived on while they were bringing up Worf?

There’s a lot-- a lot-- of trans subtext in it too.

Probably, though one would presume protections would be in place for notable natural features.

Certainly not. But they are nice to see.

Me too.

Yes and it starts before too much longer.

By and large episodic is what Star Trek fans want. At least to some extent.

I also, speaking as a trans person, really don’t like how it handled its allegorical trans character plotline, especially relative to how Discovery, Prodigy, and SNW have handled actual trans and nonbinary characters.

Pretty quickly.
