My prediction, which I'm sure I'm completely wrong about:
  • For whatever reason, the Discovery crew abandons ship and boards the Enterprise.
  • The Discovery is sent into the distant future, where Zora develops sentience and waits for the crew's return.
  • Pike is recalled to Earth for whatever reason.
  • The Disco crew join the Enterprise crew, including Spock, under Number One's command to search for the Discovery.
Or something completely different. Maybe it ends in fire.
 
It was never 26 all in a row (and most Network shows were getting between 22 - 24 eps. a season on the 'Big 3' plus FOX).

It was usually 10 new eps. then 4 repeats, then 6 new eps.; then 4 more repeats, etc.

If you go back far enough, TV seasons were very different. The first year of Star Trek was 29 episodes long, and they skipped only two weeks during the season (it's always been a common practice to show a couple of re-runs around the holiday season). In season two, they dropped to 26 episodes but still skipped only twice, so the show began in September and ended in March.
 
Well that scares the shit out of me.

I remember the hype before TATV, when they called it a valentine for the fans. It was a valentine of moldy chocolates.
 
Exactly my thinking. All those statements have me extremely suspicious that they'll try to pull some weird stunt in order to appease the rather loud portion of fans who cry “not canon!” I would much rather see them (continue to) create their very own version of Trek instead of “aligning” it with fucking canon. :rolleyes:

And THOSE "fans" will never be happy anyway............
 
As soon as it became clear that Spock and Michael would begin their arc at odds, it seemed any satisfying story would have them reconcile. And yet a reconciliation which would fail to explain why Spock never mentioned Burnham, per Kurtzman's promise that somehow this season would explain her absence in TOS (unnecessary, in my opinion, but that ship's sailed). So either something happens to wipe Spock's relationship with Michael away, or she ends up sometime else. That's what I hypothesized at the start of the season, alongside with the crew time-hopping to the future while Discovery waits for them, and I guess we'll see if I was as right about that as I was about Zora being the Red Angel. ;)

I just hope it's not some kind of reset that wipes away all of the relationships and stories we've had with this crew.
 
The last couple episodes gave enterprise heavily in it so I’m sure pike and Spock with be back on it before anything drastic happens.

But the reset would be cool as it would mean the Klingon war would have happened but not because of Michael. Plus a ton of other minor and major things.

I dunno. I don't think that would be cool. I think that would undermine my enjoyment of the entire show by altering/undoing the stories that I have been watching over the last two years. I sincerely hope that in no way is history rewritten.

The Discovery is sent into the distant future, where Zora develops sentience and waits for the crew's return.

About a month ago, I tried to spin a wild theory in which for some reason the crew had to hop through some kind of very small window in time that wouldn't permit a big ship to pass through, and so Discovery waits for them. So far, most of what I predicted has been a bust, but they have introduced single-person wormholes. So I am still hoping for this. I think it would be wild and bold if Discovery went to the far future with a sentient ship and a completely changed world to explore.
 
Premonitions? You mean like the Red Angel warning Spock that Michael was in danger when they were kids on Vulcan? Were there other such premonitions in the show?

Spock reported the visions of the red signals and Red Angel months before Starfleet had sightings of them. They were called 'premonitions' outright by the attending doctor at the psychiatric facility Spock admitted himself to. He also explicitly told Michael that was what he thought his encounter with the RA was when he saved Michael as a child. He also shared with Michael (on Talos IV) his vision of the future where the four founding worlds of the Federation are barren and then nuked into oblivion. Clearly a premonition of what might happen if they don't intervene.
