Spoilers Easter Eggs/Call Backs - All Episodes

What episode was that in? Thanks.

 

Oh Denobulans certainly would be members, so it makes perfect sense. But I want to see Andorians, Tellarites and Caitians. Species that briefly appeared in the original films would also be good candidates for era appropriate Starfleet personnel.

 

Agreed, I am liking the new ones, but I wanna see some of the core members

 

Third. It's a bit past seven minutes in the episode when they arrive in the mess hall. She has anodd colouring for a Denobulan, but the face ridge pattern seems close enough.

 

YES! CAITIANS! I miss those guys. I guess I'm on a cat kick right now - I'm in a conversation about the Kzinti in another DSC thread!

For that matter, maybe Edoans and Efrosians could make a comeback, along with some of the myriad other races seen in TMP and TVH.

 

If I heard correctly, I thought some of the bridge sound effects were from DS9 and not TOS. It's the "Warning" sound effect that was used heavily in "Civil Defense", one of my favourite episodes.

 

The the Shenzhou bridge had both TOS and TNG SFX. But I don't think the Discovery's used either TOS or TNG.

 

Sorry if this has been mentioned already, but I kind of like the fact that this is not the first time Amanda’s love of Alice in Wonderland has been mentioned in Star Trek. Spock referred to it in TAS "Once Upon a Planet."

SPOCK: "The Queen of Hearts and her cards are characters from Alice Through the Looking Glass, Captain."
KIRK: "I read the book as a child, Mister Spock, but I wasn't aware you indulged in the literature of fantasy."
SPOCK: "Light reading is considered relaxing, Captain. My mother was particularly fond of Lewis Carroll's work."

 

Oh do try mentioning that in some of the youtube comments sections!

I did. Apparently my crimes are worse than those of Hitler, Saddam Hussein and the "Bob the Builder" remake combined.

 

Trek Core posted an article on Episode 3

All have been mentioned already in this thread, but it is nice to have a single post.

 

Another differently pigmented people group of Denobulans?

 

Naah. They just like to take those anodizing baths for a fresh look every now and then.

Corvan II, the colony Discovery saves in Episode 4, was first mentioned in TNG.

And, like, Birds of Prey!

Plus the good old UFP symbol with the two faces. No wonder everybody considers the Feds shifty...

Two faces?

 

Wait ... the old Franz Joseph design?! How did I miss that?!

 

corvan II is a planet named in TNG

 

I pointed that out already.
