Seriously, Star Trek: Nemesis was produced in 2003! Basically since 13 years we only have prequels, prequel-boots, recreations and inbetween-quels. Everything focussing around recreating or explaining past events. Nithing to move on from.
Still hope it will be good, but holding my breath they will eventually produce a spin-off that picks up after Nemesis

Nope, in fact, I think I'll join you too in the jumping up and down part, Spider!
People are already talking about the Sheliak Corporate. I didn't think Ensigns of Command was that popular of an episode.
Still, don't forget next year is the 30th anniversary of TNG. They could do something like that in tribute.
I'm actually more happy than I thought I'd be with news of a prequel. More TOS-era adventures sounds much more exciting than just another prequel.
Maybe I wouldn't be so much in the hands of a less capable showrunner.

To be honest I liked the Sheliak and I like the idea of focusing on an uncommon enemy.
Im with Rahul and I'm surprised more people aren't. Don't get me wrong I'm looking forward to this new series and will probably enjoy it as all the others. But we keep shoehorning ourselves into a box that gets smaller and smaller like those Russian dolls where if we can FINALLY go forward again the sky's the limit.
OK lead is a LT. Commander. #StarTrekDiscovery

Um....KTR, the last time we partnered up in a forum, there were literal riots in threads. Let's not do that again. At least not until the third year, by that time the riots will be in full swing and we'll never even be noticed.
"Overall, there about seven lead characters. Opening scene isn’t on a planet or Earth."

I am pissed too. Put it this way, I invested 14 years over 21 seasons plus a few movies on TNG era Trek. That is my Trek. TOS was good for what it was as are the new movies, but they are missing all of that great development of species and the Trek universe. They better plan the next show in that universe and move the story forward.
Obviously I will watch it and probably enjoy it, but this is the second Trek show reveal in a row that I have been bummed out by because it was a damn prequel.
Because heaven forbid there be any limitations on what a writer can or can't do. Clearly good stories can only be told if a writer has unlimited freedom.
So it was an event referenced in Star Trek, so it's not Shiliak. I was getting excited though.
I would hoping Discovery would be set in the movie era. I'm bummed that it isn't.so will the next Trek show after Discovery be set between TOS and TNG.
I did say "severely restricts".
Fuck it, I'm excited just to be getting new Star Trek on TV. The galaxy is a damn big place, and little of it was explored in Pike/Kirk's time, and we only saw small portions of it in TNG. I honestly don't think the setting of the series is gonna be as restrictive as some might think.
There's probably a million good stories you can do in 2255 but a good trillion stories await in the 25th century and forward
