Obviously its subjective but I liked the TOS inspired uniforms from Star Trek 09/Into Darkness.
On another note, how long do you think it'll be before we get to see set/costume/prop photos?

Oh, I’ve always argued that Trek has been serialised as far back as TNG (Worf being the most glaringly obvious example, but all of the characters have it) and this is usually when listening to daft attacks on Voyager for not having enough of it (because the modern ‘one long story’ approach is/was particularly in vogue.) and usually described as not having any.
The fact they are switching back to it as a tried and true set up for Trek can only highlight how much it’s always been there.
The collars on the DSC uniforms are garbage. I hope they become TOS- and Kelvin Timeline-style black collars without tabs for SNW.
I thought he was referring to PIC. Hm.
You would think without the BTS turmoil, and Chabon -- I think -- overseeing the writing, the whole serial would be plotted in advance.
Do other ppl think he was referring to DSC or PIC?
All Goldsman said regarding Discovery was he's not really been involved since Season 1.
Goldsman has a history of blurting out things which are maybe gaffes. I remember right when Picard came out he said it was different from Discovery because Picard was "writing based" and Discovery was "lots of things blowing up."

Basically DS9 S1-2.
Slow boil character development in basically one-off episodes. I'm not against long form storytelling, but there's something inherently Trek about stand alone shows.
Too much Klingons in Disco 1 & 2
Well SNW only has around 10 episodes IIRC, so character development won't be that slow.
I do hope like DS9's first season though they allow for an episode focusing on every member of the cast - sort of a character introduction.
I don't recall seeing budget or number of episodes listed anywhere. Hoping we can get it up to 13.
Spock: Captain Pike, I see that we are definitely going with the higher cost bridge for our missions.
Pike: Don’t use the word cost, Spock. You’re acting like the Federation is using latinum instead of fitcoins, which can only be mined by us improving our physical and mental wellbeing. The more fitcoins the bridge costs, the more people will have to better themselves.
Spock: Fascinating.
Pike: I swapped out that bridge we used on the Rigel and first Talos missions into quantum storage. I’ll hand it over to my successor. Considering how lazy Starfleet is getting my successor won’t have enough fitcoins on hand to get a fancy bridge, just a dated retro one. Not that I’m complaining. I heard that young kid–whatshisname–Grames Tiberian Quirk, or Kork, or whatever, is angling for my job. The one who cheated on the Kobayashi Maru. Let him have the cheap stuff.

Da fuq?
Ah you're right.
Remember the days? Sure. Remember most of the episodes? Not really...it's a mixed bag.
IIRC, they're trying to make ten episodes the new standard for a Star Trek season. I think even Disco season 4 is only ten.
Those days are behind us. Besides, even in the 1990s where seasons with over twenty episodes were the rule, the Star Trek shows were the only ones that did twenty-six, arguably to their detriment.
26 ep seasons were mainly for syndication (to allow for five-days-a-week broadcast).
The difference is, with the fully serialised Trek, its one story, over many episodes. With previous Trek you would have many shorter stories, but some would stand out as brilliant.
So if the one story is bad, it drags all episodes down with it.
Even then, most other shows at the time only had 22-24 episodes a season, many of them getting successful syndication packages, quite a few which are still running today in syndication. Twenty-six really was unnecessary.
And even Sub Rosa is somebodies favourite
