    I thought the brief Enterprise appearance was fine, but yeah: the Discovery take was hot garbage.

    I'm interested...

    I liked the Into Darkness/Disco S2 take on S31

    I'm looking forward to see how the Section 31 series is handled. And it would be nice to see Michelle Yeoh and Shazad Latif on the screen together, again. I liked their chemistry from Season 2 of "Discovery".

    Among the sellers.
    If the producers are still considering this they probably want to plan around pretty limited participation by Yeoh at this point. Her film career and opportunities continue to soar.

    If they are still committed to the Section 31 idea, they should just make a film and treat it like a feature length episode, like how the 2-hour series premieres of Berman era Trek shows were treated. And depending on the reviews it gets, go on from there. It seems to be away to get around Yeoh’s film schedule too.

    I can see Section 31 as something that could be both aired on P+ and re-aired in a 3 hour block with commercials over the summer/winter holiday break on CBS.

    She just singed up for a new Netflix series, so S31 is looking less and less likely. You never know, though.

    Another reason to make an S31 movie instead for P+, to address at the very least where Empress Georgiou ended up.

    I'd love to see a Starfleet meets the Americans type of show.

    Something else to help clog up search engines. Yay.

    Hmm...to be honest, Section 31 is the series I have the least confidence in--at least with Michelle Yeoh as its lead. I always felt that Yeoh was a relatively big international star and was actually very surprised to see her initially in DIS. I dunno--I guess I thought there would be other film (and possibly now TV) projects that would prevent her from starring full-time in a Trek series.

    I could see a Section 31 series in which Yeoh's Georgiou is prominent in the first episode or two, but then as the case with DIS, becomes more of a reoccurring character afterward, not appearing in every episode.

    This can easily come across as a Nikita rip-off in space.

    Or the first season of DIS, especially if Yeoh is billed in the opening credits like she was on the show.

    LOL Netflix. > 50% it will be cancelled

    Though I do suspect S31 will not happen.

    Maybe they will mention something tomorrow with this and the Academy show at Comic Con.
