Spoilers Lower Decks General Discussion Thread

:lol: I actually spent a few minutes staring at that wondering "is that a Talosian or a Suliban?"

Other observations: Pictire 17, Lt. Shaxs looking pissed off with a bunch of other goldshirts staring at him in some sort of command centre looking room. I'm guessing this is the ship's security monitoring centre, which I guess the show is treating like some sort of shipboard police station? Cool idea, it kind of bothered me we never saw what goes into ship security in the other shows besides having the security chief manning the tactical station on the bridge and having security officers hanging around the brig or standing guard as needed around the ship.

And Picture 27, a Ferengi!
With any luck, Shaxs will bemoan Starfleet's abysmal security training program and constantly complain about why none of his people will find cover during a firefight. :lol:

I have a sneaking suspicion this show will find most of its comedic value in being very meta over many things fans have disliked about Trek over the years. Queue a mess-hall debate scene over whether or not Starfleet is military...
 
Two new Lower Decks stills in this ad for the Star Trek Universe Comic-Con@Home Panel. At least I think we haven't seen them.

Two questions: Are those Gorn? And: Those pointy-eared ladies with the purple-ish skin aren't Vulcan, are they?

I don't think they're really supposed to be purple, it just looks like that's the way they are showing people with a slightly darker skin tone.
Bunch of new images released (15 out of 30 is where the new ones start)

Lots of interesting new stuff in those pictures. Looks like they show a couple new areas of the ship, and our first look at their versions of the Ferengi, Klingons, and Cardassians. It also looks like the waiters at whatever the Cerritos' version of Ten Forward is wear the same outfits as the ones on the Enterprise-D.
 
I am kind of curious why only the blue-wearing science/medical people are wearing white boots and all others are wearing black. I don't remember that uniform distinction in any of the TNG-era shows/movies, of which this is supposed to be a relative contemporary.
 
That's right - was that one in TOS said to be the last of its kind?
Yup.

This is just a guess but it's on the CMO so I am guessing it is a medical distinction from general sciences.

Well in that TNG season 8 thing the show creator did he made the TNG crew genre savvy.
 
And only 5/8 do it correctly :vulcan: :lol:

This may be a tip-of-the-hat to TAS, which insisted on making lots of random things pink and purple for no realistic reason, like Klingon uniforms and Kzinti starships (and pale blue Orion males).
The person responsible for coloring was color-blind and saw pink as gray.

It would be hilarious if Trek commented on today's conspiracy people XD
 
What's the bacteriophage-looking thing? Could've sworn there was something with that same look in Worlds of the Federation or one of those types of reference books.
 
Could it be that "macrovirus" thing from that awful Voyager episode?
Don't think that was it... I feel like this was more of a line illustration. Kind of like the ones from the Star Fleet Medical Reference Manual that got used in Keiko's schoolroom in DS9.

The two Klingon women on the conspiracy board that we assume are Lursa and Betor, the neck things they are wearing are roughly in the same shape as the neck pieces the live characters wore! What an easter egg!
