Section 31: I hope it still happens.

They could also suffer sufficient losses and encountered such pushback from Federation and Starfleet politics that they were reduced in number and eventually became more behind the scenes operation, returning to their roots as it were.

 

Which some speculate is why a new warp scale was done up for TNG.

 

We see signs of the new warp scale even in TVH. When they sling-shot around the Sun and Sulu reads the warp factors, after they go passed Warp 9, it's "9.1... 9.2... 9.3..." They never hit Warp 10.

 

That's probably what they'll do.

 

They have already said they want to show how/why S31 went underground. Assuming the control stuff from DSC season 2 wasn’t it.

 

If Section 31 is going to be a mid-to-late 2250's show, I'm kind of interested. I think it would be a good companion show to SNW. SNW being the lighter, optimistic "old school Trek" show, and S31 being the darker, edgy show. I think it's a good dynamic with the two being set during the same time. With S31 being covert operations and top secret, it might give them some liberties to break the canon a little. Just a little.

Can't remember where exactly I read it so I can't provide a link, but Kurtzman described the concept of the S31 show once as a mix of shows like Killing Eve and the Mission Impossible movies. That's interesting to me.

 

I would assume that the Control collapsing was the beginning of the end for S31, due to their overreach in power. Essentially, they had become the very threat they had promised to defeat.

 

And the Emperor Emerita becomes a contributing factor in the further downfall?

 

It has Michelle Yeoh. It must live.

 

She can eat my Ganglia any time she wants.

I hope the series does go forward, it's strange that we've heard so little about it.

 

Not really. The plan was to begin filming in May, but something kind of came up and prevented that.

 

I’m talking about the 31 series, they announced it years ago.

 

And? As @The Wormhole noted it was to start filming this May as part of anticipating other filming schedules for Yeoh, i.e. Crazy Rich Asians, Discovery Season 3. That has now been delayed so its in limbo for the time being.

 

Cool, I didn’t know that.

 

Now you know...

though that's what @The Wormhole posted...

 

Along with everything else in the world.

You didn't know the world is currently tits up? I want to live where you live, because it sounds pretty damn sweet at the moment.

 

Section 13 wasn't delayed bacause of Covid19, at first. It was delayed for conceptual reasons and because they wanted to film season 1 and 2 back to back and Yeoh's schedule wouldn't allow for that this year.

 

I mean't that production had started, don't be a dick.

There are 4 pages, I'm not going to trhough each one.

 

I'll clear this up. There was never any intention for Section 31 to enter production until after Discovery's third season. Which led to a ton of speculation about what might happen in DSC S3, which was probably Alex Kurtzman's intent. Because we're still speculating about it even to this day.
