I wonder how different Season 2 will be. Jayne Brook (a.k.a. Admiral Cornwell) has said in interviews that Aaron and Gretchen personally invited her to play Cornwell on Discovery. I hope that Admiral Cornwell still appears on the show in the future!
I never thought about that. If Starfleet was really hoping that Georgiou would die on the mission then that makes Starfleet's motives even more devious.
I saw an episode of Enterprise the other day that made me think of both Cornwell's and Sisko morally questionable actions that they took/wanted to take. Remember the Season 3 episode of Enterprise called Damage where Archer steals the warp coil from an Illyrian vessel? He knew that doing so...
After I read your reply I reread the post that I was initially replying to. I don't know what Legends of the Ferengi is and didn't understand the reference to it in the initial post. I was very confused, hence my post...
In the Season 5 episode Dark Frontier I and/or II, Seven of Nine was on a Borg vessel where she was reunited with her assimilated father Magnus Hansen. IIRC, Magnus ultimately ended up dying in that episode when the Borg vessel was blown up. I don't recall ever seeing Seven acknowledging the...
When I watched the season finale I remember thinking that Cornwell's/Starfleet's/the Federation's decision to blow up Qo'noS was very controversial, but that giving L'Rell control of the bomb so that she could hold the Klingon Empire hostage was also controversial. IMO, if Picard and the...
When I first heard the name Tilly, I couldn't help but think of Gilly from SNL. I thought about Gilly less and less as Season 1 progressed, but every once and a while I couldn't help but think of the SNL character! Did anyone else think this?
No votes for Kirk 'cause I had asked everyone who their favorite Admiral was who had never been a main character on one of the Trek shows. :) Otherwise, lots of people might say Kirk and/or Janeway. That is, of course ignoring when Riker was once tricked into thinking that Picard was an...
I always assumed that Picard had this authority and that the promotion would be at least partially based on the recommendations of Riker and Troi in their crew evaluations. Remember the episode Lower Decks? On Voyager Janeway seemed to have the sole authority (look at Tom Paris' demotion then...
I thought it was really interesting that Cornwell called him "my Gabriel" in the briefing when Discovery returned to the Prime Universe. See 0:30 of the video below:
It would be neat if they found out that prime Gabriel didn't die with the rest of the crew of the Buran, but is holed up in a...
I posted on another thread on Trekbbs that Admiral Cornwell is my favorite Starfleet Admiral. She was a really strong character, especially considering her time spent being presumably tortured on the Klingon vessel.
That being said, I was disappointed how she was portrayed as a bad guy that...
