So does Seaquest. Just tossing that out there.

If we wait long enough, it'll get a reboot/sequel eventually. That's what I've learned the last ten years.
We've already waited longer than we had to for BSG to get rebooted, and that's getting another reboot in a lesser span of time. How much longer do we have to wait?
I think this is the first time we've had a husband-wife team as stars on seperate simultaneously airing Trek productions. There was Visitor and Siddig in DS9, but that was the same show (and they married during the series).
Gonna go for my '90s deep-cut Top 3. Deep cut. No Star Trek. No X-Files. Nothing like that.

Someone made a model of the Cerritos and posted views of it, along with a couple of variants.
Not sure if I can just post the link but here it is:

Not gonna lie, I've grown really fond of the design.

Sonequa Martin Green's husband Kenric Green voiced Michael's father on Short Treks. Though that's kind of weird if you think too much about it.
He also played the character in live action when he appeared in the Disco season 2 episode Perpetual Infinity.
Well, he did say "separate simultaneously airing Trek productions", so the same show doesn't count.
I was talking about main cast members too, although I guess we don't know if O'Connell will be part of the main cast or just a recurring guest due to the conceit behind the show. If we include guest stars on seperate productions, then Leonard Nimoy's wife and Roxann Dawson's ex-husband were both on DS9, and some oddities like Gordon Clapp (DS9)/Deborah Taylor (TNG) or Ernie Milrich (TNG)/Melinda Clarke (Enterprise) or Billy Van Zandt (TMP)/Adrienne Barbeau (DS9), and probably many more I can't find likely exist.
Possibly. But it could also be for practical reasons in marketing too. From an aesthetic POV, I'm not keen on the ship. However, I think it fits as the design of a ship for the purposes of the premise of the show. If they'd have gone with something "cooler", people might be too demanding to see the same design in a "serious" setting.
The nacelles look more TOS than what Discovery has given us, IMO.
It's kind of a bummer, but I can't remember ever being so disinterested in a new Star Trek project. I think I even had greater anticipation for ENT and Star Trek: Insurrection. I guess I'm just not an "animation" guy.
I'll undoubtedly watch and I hope it's something maybe I can enjoy with my young sons, which would be a saving grace...but if it's raunchy and "adult humor-oriented," that won't work either.

The comedy is going to make or break this show.
But, I have to say that of the newer hero ships this one actually appeals to me the most.
They’re aiming for a TV-14 rating if I recall, so take that as you will. I know Mike said they don’t want it to be R rated.
I suspect the comedy is going to be very much similar to what we saw with the TNG Season 8 Twitter feed, and subsequent book based on it, both from Mike McMahan. Immature at times, yes, but not raunchy or especially adult oriented.
McMahan also wrote the Short Trek about Harry Mudd and the Tellarite, for anyone who wants to sample his work without looking up a Twitter feed or a book from a few years ago.

Until proven otherwise, I'll assume then that TNG Season 8 (the book and the Twitter feed) is canon. 2371 was a whacky year.
