    What will the red alert look like and sound like on the new Trek TV series ship?

    Memory Alpha mentions:
    Since ENT is pre TOS it is not sophisticated.
    VOY had a red alert alarm that sounds more like a telephone call waiting sound.
    Are we going to get a nod to the TOS classic sound FX alarm for red alert like JJTrek used also?
    Will the bridge have dim lighting and red lights flashing?

    It'll likely be red... and an alert. Beyond that? It is too early to tell.

    A robot will pop out from a wall panel, waving its arms and shouting "Danger! Danger!"

    It'll be "Whooo-ahh! Whoo-ahhh! Whoo-ahh!"

    And a serious amount of flashin' red lights that would make hell seem grayscale in comparison.

    The speculation will be feverish among fans as to whether the writers will include other colours on the spectrum in their palette of alerts.

    Y'know like pink n' stuff.

    Captain: Go to red alert!
    Lieutenant: Are you sure, captain?
    Captain: Yes!
    Lieutenant: Because you do realise it means changing the bulb.

    They'll use the style of Star Trek 5: "RED RED RED.....ALERT. RED......ALERT". Then it bursts into flames.

    You do know every other race in the universe thinks red alerts are incredibly camp, right?

    This is exactly the kind of topic that will go the distance on this forum. I'm thinking at least around about 10 pages plus?

    Go ahead, caller. I'm listening...
    I predict it will be announced with blue lights all over the ship, and instead of silence broken intermittently with an alarm klaxon, there will be a solid alarm sound that will be broken by staccato moments of silence.

    This show's gonna be different, I can feel it!

    Little known fact:

    It was never supposed to be a red alert, but avacado alert. It just looked red when they ran the film through whatever the hell they did back then.

    An enemy ship appears.

    The turbo lift doors will open, the actor James Edwards Olmos will walk purposely on to the bridge, in a deeply meaningful way he'll state "action stations," after waiting a beat he'll turn and re-enter the turbo lift.

    An annoying loud sound will be heard over the speakers.

    People on the port side of the bridge will run to the starboard side, and people on the starboard side will run to the port.

    With the very high likelihood of casualties, the ship surgeon will arrive on the bridge and casually lounge around.

    The communication's officer will announce that she's frightened.

    As the enemy ship repeatedly fires on the good guys ship, the Captain will call for a conference in a nearby observation lounge.

    The majority of the bridge officers will walk off the bridge, leaving their consoles unattended.

    The enemy ship will continue to fire.

    The battle music from Pokémon Red will play, as the lights "dance" red with the music.
