‘Star Trek: Strange New Worlds’ Renewed for Fifth and Final Season

[The Wormhole]

apparently Piper is in
n. (TOS novels: Traitor Winds, My Brother's Keeper: Constitution, and Captain's Peril)

That's only three novels, and only two of them are set in the period prior to WNMHGB. Traitor Winds is a "Lost Years" novel set between Turnabout Intruder and TMP and only brings Piper back long enough to kill him. It says something if even the novels have largely ignored him.

And nobody ever tried to suggest he was related to Miss Piper? She only knows what Kirk looks like due to Helen Johannson, but perhaps Mark never described Kirk's appearance, even if he mentioned serving under Kirk to Miss Piper.

Not everyone with the same name has to be related

Never said that. I'm just surprised the books haven't tried yet.

I just hope TrekFic writers read my post.

I've had Grok/ChatGPT write some "year one" episodes for me for shits and giggles, and it must have sourced some of memory beta for what it came up with. it knew what characters to use and the proper time period to set it in.

It did sometimes get silly with the novels. Like one writer making Gul Macet, Gul Dukat's cousin.

and this is why AI should be regulated (IMO outright banned) to only use sources the owner of the AI has the rights to.

waaaay better than These Are The Voyages.

That's not the high bar you think it is.

I REALLY really really want YEAR ONE. Kelso, Mitchell, Piper, etc all deserve a lot more than what they have been given. Could introduce young Sulu as part of the the lower decks. I don't want to see McCoy yet. Let the early years shine for once. And, I would absolutely love Phase II.

But, I think I just figured out how i truly want the show to end.

The entire series is one of Pike's fantasies on Talos IV.

He never had giant quarters, or dinner parties. He never fought Xeno-Gorn, and his Captain Girlfriend is just Vina in another disguise. Its all a way for him to work through accepting his fate and letting go of those things he's been hanging on to. If it wasn't for Discovery, I would say that the ship never even looked like that, but that ship has sailed. But, close enough to returning canon to the state it was in TOS. And best of all, there was never a musical episode!!!

I do like SNW but don't love it but this ending would be the best thing put on TV in the history of television!

Its literally just writing fan-fic based on prompts I gave it, using public web pages. What does any of that have to do with copyrights....?

Because of what you just said. It’s copying other people’s peoperty

AI generation is plagiarism

A series finale that makes the entire show a thing that didn't really happen..... Talk about a Valentine for all the fans.

It's not.

And since there have been legal rulings against copyrighting generative AI material, that concern is somewhat diminished.

 

[Turtletrekker]

Yeah, on the list of ridiculous ideas, that one has to be very high on the list.

 

[fireproof78]

It's all just a dream has worked so well though!

And best of all, there was never a musical episode!!!

The musical episode as aired CAN'T have happened in the original TOS timeline because the scene with La'an crushing on Kirk wouldn't have happened as that hinged on a 21st century Eugenics Wars that wasn't part of the TOS timeline.
