Spoilers Strange New Worlds General Discussion Thread

[CorporalClegg]

Take any one of those characters away and the whole thing falls down.

And you know this how?

Beyond's best scenes are between Spock and Bones alone.

 

[BillJ]

I see him as being just a 70-year-old asshole who calls it like he sees it.

So movie McCoy?

 

[Lord Garth]

So movie McCoy?

Yeah. But they can make him more George Carlin.

 

[Amasov]

It isn't...?

Ok, maybe it's about a ship named the USS Strange New Worlds.

 

[Amasov]

Since we know Pike and Spock will survive the series, it would be fun if it became a running gag how often Number One's life was endangered.

Since they were both older characters in TOS I wouldn't be totally averse to introducing McCoy and Scotty eventually. Not in the first season though. Scotty seems like the kinda guy who would have worked his way up through the ranks on the Enterprise. McCoy probably not, but they could give him a guest appearance - let us see how terribly his first meeting with Spock went for them to have a prickly frenemy relationship forever after.

I need there to be a moment in the series for Number One to mention how she lent her voice to Starfleet's newest operating system AI.

I think he's referencing the fact the crew will be exploring strange new worlds.

This story talks about "fans" wanting Jeffrey Combs playing Dr. Bryce.

How fucking cool would that be? We know McCoy wasn't on the Enterprise as of WNMHGB, but we don't know when Boyce left.

I hope they don’t give him a Ready Room. The Enterprise doesn’t have one.

 

[Ar-Pharazon]

I hope they don’t give him a Ready Room. The Enterprise doesn’t have one.

...that we saw.

 

[Mudd]

I hope they don’t give him a Ready Room. The Enterprise doesn’t have one.

Of course it does. Kirk just had it turned into a toupee closet.

Christ, what a thing to nitpick.

 

[fireproof78]

...that we saw.

By that argument there was no bathroom.

 

[thribs]

...that we saw.

Kirk used his quarters. I hope they keep with that.

Combs replied, saying it's virtually impossible he'd ever be cast in the new shows, the producers aren't interested

 

[Skywalker]

By that argument there was no bathroom.

No need; they just beamed their waste out of their bodies.

 

[Borgminister]

Combs replied, saying it's virtually impossible he'd ever be cast in the new shows, the producers aren't interested

That's a real shame...

 

[fireproof78]

Combs replied, saying it's virtually impossible he'd ever be cast in the new shows, the producers aren't interested

Well, I appreciate what he has done but I hope that means they are going in a new direction.

 

[thribs]

Combs should still have a role somewhere. Shran’s grandson perhaps?

 

[fireproof78]

Hello, nostalgia, my old friend...

 

[Dukhat]

I like Coombs, but I really don't need to see him again.

 

[SolarisOne]

Hello, nostalgia, my old friend...

I've come to talk with you again...
