Star Trek Discovery Renewed For Season 3

i don't know what made me go look at twitter, but this doomcock person is using the renewal as evidence that star trek is dead.

As many times as these folks have predicted cancellation, it seems at some point they'd scamper off with their tale between their legs.

I know I couldn't take that kind of consistent embarrassment.

I just don't know why "haters" don't just ignore Discovery and move on. Well, because there's money to be made by making YouTube videos to pander to that hate. But I mean, why is there even a viable audience for these videos? After Matt Smith left, Doctor Who took a nosedive in quality. I stopped watching. You know how much time I've spent ranting and raving and watching hate videos over Doctor Who? None.

Don't like Discovery? Ok fine, you don't have to. But these people just need to shut up and let their hate go.

Yeah, like I spend a lot of my time on Discovery forums because I enjoy the show and talking about it. They must just enjoy being irrationally upset and angry. Like these people follow the Discovery/CBS All Access social media channels just so they can post angry face and post comments like "still not paying." So sad.
 
I WAS surprised they didn't mention Mount.
I guess the name brand of PECK, is probably why.
:cool:

The only Australian newspaper articles I have seen about S2 involved Peck - first the announcement he’d been cast, then an interview with him.

The combination of the Peck and Spock brands is a lure, I suppose.

There's much more name recognition with "Spock" so they reference the character and actor playing him. Anson Mount isn't super well known and is playing a not well-known character.

The "logic" of some of these people escape me. Like the post I saw today claiming the new Picard show was not real trek and was lore-breaking.

Nice! I'm hoping Enterprise's repairs run behind so Anson Mount's Captain Pike will remain for season three, but, if not, I eagerly wait to see who they dig up to take his place. Prime Lorca? Robert April? Decker? :cool:

I don't think she's ready yet, but clearly the end goal of the character arc is to get Burnham in the captain's chair.

is that clear? it hadn't really occurred to me that burnham would take over, but i feel like that kind of betrays the premise of the show revolving around a non-captain.

I'm by no means a super-fan, but I hang around hoping the show gets better.

The very first Episode of Discovery, Georgiou is telling Burnham she's "ready for command." It's coming. Maybe not this season, maybe not next season, but it's coming.
 
Discovery will probably pick up even more viewers once the new Twilight Zone premieres.

I don't know? Two different types of shows. And I wonder what kind of draw The Twilight Zone will have considering it has lain dormant for a while.
