Spoilers Will we see an Enterprise in Season 3?

[Noname Given]

I don't think so, no. For one I doubt they will want to go to the trouble of building yet another bridge set. The Disco bridge has been modular enough to be used for the Disovery, Shenzou and Sec.31 bridges, but I can't see them tearing down the 1701 bridge. No one is going to convince me they build all that for a two parter.

A set is a set. they film on it for what they need, and when they're done, they tear it down; and if they think it could be used again for some project or episode in the future, of course they'll store it - but no, they're not just going to leave it standing in a soundstage in perpetuity. To a working production crew in general, there's nothing 'special' about it - it's just another set.

In any production you build a set for the purpose of getting the scenes you need for the production filmed. beyond that - there's nothing 'special' and depending on your allowed budget, and what level of cinematic flair you want to display, yes, they COULD build an expensive set for one episode, figure they'll never use it again, and junk it. That's the nature of TV and Film production...it's all illusion and nothing is real/permanent.

I'm aware of that. But sets cost money, some much more than others and they try get as much use out of them as possible (just look at how long lived some of the Phase 2 hardware ended up being).
They did put more money into the Enterprise bridge than I would have expected for its limited on screen time. I don't think it's about to head to the scrap yard or auction house. Storage, sure.

I hope not. Actually be Star Trek Discovery for a change. Focus on the damn ship and crew.

I doubt there will be a S3.

You are right! Tell me, how did you dig through all the FAKE NEWS to figure this out?! Inside man at CBS? Talking with someone from the future? Or did you Mom start refusing to pay your All-Access subscription?

I also predict there wont be a season 4 of TOS. I have connections at NBC and Desilu. I know these things.
