Which "extra" ending scene?
If SNW only gets 5 seasons as well
- Thread starter Detached Nacelle
- Start date
From Trekmovie:
McMahan describes the last show as carrying through the same humorous tone as the rest of the series, though he admits to re-writing portions of the script when it became clear that Lower Decks would not be renewed…In order to accommodate the extra story pages needed to resolve all those plotlines (and possibly open a few new ones for the future) the crew recorded an extra-long, story-dense finale that Tawny Newsome described as “a double-stuffed Oreo of an episode.” Still in the editing stage, the runtime is currently eight minutes longer than a regular Lower Decks episode.
So not an extra scene, but last-minute rewrites to accommodate the fact that the show was not getting renewed.
I admittedly used a poor choice of words. Nevertheless, I believe the point has been made. Or not. You tell me.
Given the long production leadtimes on animation, I don't think anything about the series finale was "hastily" done.
If it was Doctor Who, we would have gotten close to 30 minutes!!!!!

I’ll take your word for it. I haven’t watched Doctor Who since David Tennant’s first year.
Akiva Goldman has said that SNW will end with Kirk's first day as Captain of the Enterprise:

The executive producer also talked about his pitch for a follow-up show.

What about the Kelvin films?
What ground can a Year One show cover that the Kelvin films did not?
I can see them doing a streaming movie. A full-blown show? No. (It risks colliding with TOS continuity.)

The Kelvin movies covered very, very little.
Kirk taking command of the Enterprise in a logical manner.
Okay ... this Year One series is somehow supposed to cover what the Kelvin films did not while avoiding conflicts with TOS continuity?
We never saw Kirk's Year One in TOS.Okay ... this Year One series is somehow supposed to cover what the Kelvin films did not while avoiding conflicts with TOS continuity?
They might do a movie (or a series of movies).
I don't see the need for an entire series.
If they pick up after TMP, they can depict the switch over between the space pajamas and the monster maroons.
