First SFA Trailer

[Rahul]

I'll be very, very let down if Season 1 ends with some "epic stakes" finale. The whole point of this show, after all, is to watch characters grow. Part of that is (presuming they still do intend this to be a multi-season show, and not a one-and-done) that they face a relatively minor antagonist in Season 1, building up for bigger and badder things in later years.

I mean, it's still a Kurtzman Trek show.

Question is mostly HOW this epic stake will be implemented - e.g. I thought SNWs season 1 finale Romulan Invasion was okay, mostly because it was still a character episode (the Gorn invasion was more iffy).
I think DIS season 3 is still the absolute only live-action streaming finale without an epic mcguffin threat.

And even then, this iteration of that crew was partly introduced courtesy of an epic MacGuffin threat, via Control.

I'm quite intrigued by this, especially since a show about the academy is arguably long overdue. Having Robert Picardo back is quite the coup, and some of the characters strike me as fascinating.

I hope its more low stakes. One benefit of being in a stationary setting is it lets us explore more about alien cultures

But it won't be in a stationary setting. The USS Athena will be serving as both active duty Starship and training ship for the cadets.

Ohh

I get the feeling regular "ship-based Star Trek scifi stuff" will be the main focus of most episodes and the "young adult drama" folks are worried about will just play out in the background like it does with DIS and SNW. In fact, I'd bet it will be very much like how SNW does things, since that's arguably the biggest hit of the streaming rra.

'Prentice cruises are a thing. Looking forward to this.

Time to reread Space Cadet in anticipation.

Zzzzzzzzzz...

 

[TRON JA307020]

I'm glad this show is jumping off in a century far removed from everything else we know that doesn't have to lean back on the over-mined Berman era nostalgia. If nothing else, that's anything but lazy.

Strange that everything in the 32nd century looks like the 23rd STD and SNW century. Same orange doors, neon lighting basically trying to light dark rooms, window viewscreens etc. Its hard to even tell we are 800 years in the future beca6se things look so much the same. I wonder if stsrfleet designers from 800 years ago are still designing tech.

its quite hypocrticial of them to cast a character that suppose to be sisko's daughter/relative (i mean i think thats the implication here) but not cast avery brooke himself, not because he dosent want to, but because hes blacklisted for whatever reason. i'm just sick of all the nepo babies in new star trek. its always "i'm the daughter/son of this famous character who was amazing in every thing possible"

I've already done enough teen angst to last the rest of my life after raising three kids. Definitely not something for me.

What gave you that impression?

Which character is that? SAM is a hologram from another planet. Nothing stated connects her to Sisko. She looked a picture of Sisko in the trailer. That's about it.

 

[The Wormhole]

Wait, what? Who is supposed to be Sisko's daughter or relative?

 

[eschaton]

Wait, what? Who is supposed to be Sisko's daughter or relative?

I think they're presuming because SAM's actor (Kerrice Brooks) has the same last name as Avery Brooks and is black, that they're related.

Kerrice is too young to be one of Avery's kids, though he has three (Anaya, Asante, and Cabral).

 

[The Wormhole]

Hell, it the actual child of an actor from another Trek series were cast in this or any Trek show, everyone would have known that by now. Doubly so if their parent were one of Trek's Captains.

 

[Richard S. Ta]

(i mean i think thats the implication here)

You think wrong.

 

[JoseNoodles]

I wonder why Riker got demoted?
