I’m not sure why I find this funny and yet... if they had the guts to do this it’d be awesomeImagine for a second they pull a Logan and have Picard's entire Next Gen crew die off-screen somewhere between Nemesis and now.

I suppose the benefit of going 20 years past the latest Trek we’ve ever seen means they can do what they want with the look - they won’t have to fall back on the ol’ “visual reboot” get-out-of-jail-free-card as the visuals will be after anything we’ve seen. I’m actually looking forward to this in a way that I’ve not looked forward to a new Trek show since “Caretaker” aired.Their might be some crossover stuff with the "Discovery" look but since it's the same people I think that will only make them want to find away to make each show look different. Two "Discovery" looking shows won't benefit either show. I think we will see a difference much in the way you could see some difference between TNG and DS9. Part of me thinks ironically the show might even feel more retro than the prequel to move away form the super futuristic tech people expect from a 24th century show. I always had this theory that futher you set a show in the future the more contempoary your look usually has to be yet if you set something in the near future you can do super futuristic stuff because the contemporary setting will naturally ground it in away that makes it still relatable.
