Spoilers Strange New Worlds General Discussion Thread

When it's not displaying anything it even has a yellow grid. Though I believe the Disney AR wall has a grid too, I believe it's for camera tracking.

Also that PDF shows that they had modified part of the Bridge set to represent the USS Archer in Episode 1, but we never saw the bridge of the Archer, must have been a deleted scene.

Good catch about the Archer bridge! I didn't even remember that we don't see the bridge. What they did to modify the Enterprise bridge – swapping one of the segments for a custom one with different lighting – is actually pretty clever. I wonder if they ever ended up using that set piece in a later episode.

Looking at these images, I realize i miss the engineering set from season one. Did they abandon that for season two or did I just miss it? What I hadn't realized is that the huge circular element in the background was supposed to be the back of the deflector dish.

It showed up in Episode 1 for a brief shot. When Mitchell is faking the warp core breach.

I had thought that structure was aft. However, in retrospect it’s now more obvious, since that’s the only circular thing on the engineering hull. I think those tube things along the sides being reminiscent of the TOS engineering cathedral is what threw me off.

Looking at all that material, it clarifies the efforts of the art design staff to situate the sets within the 1452-foot length and contours of the Enterprise.

Me too, though I realize how that we never really knew where the "cathedral" was located or which direction it was pointed. Franz Joseph decided that it was part of the impulse drive at the rear of the saucer, IIRC, but that was speculative.

I always assumed those tubes were going up the pylons. That's also how Doug Drexler portrayed it his cross section.

Yeah, the angled, diagonal conduits in TOS always seemed to me like they'd be connected to the warp nacelles and we were seeing their starting point inside Main Engineering.

‘Star Trek: Strange New Worlds’ Hits Streaming Top 10 Again; Pushes Paramount+ To New Milestone

In fact, Strange New Worlds is being cited as the driver to finally get Paramount+ listed on a different chart by Nielsen, The Gauge, which tracks television market share for broadcast, cable, and streaming. To get onto The Guage an outlet needs to reach 1% market share across all television viewing. According to Nielsen:

Paramount+ captured 1.0% of overall TV viewing in June and is the 11th streaming service to be independently reported in The Gauge. Viewing to Paramount+ was boosted by its original series Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, which generated nearly 1 billion viewing minutes.

I’m glad SNW is doing so well.

It's a ruse, you know! SNW was cancelled two years ago, and the new episodes and the top ten streaming shows list are just a conspiracy to make us believe that everything is going well.

Ps, it's incredible, but they really seriously saying this too

Well it's certainly showed Jean Luc Picard's hypocrisy front and center. PIcard loves it when he has the information but can't pass it along; but when his first officer is in a situation where he has the information, and an admiral in his chain of command has told him he can't say anything to anyone else, what does the card do? He threatens to 'make changes' in the ship's command structure (IE threatens to remove Riker from his executive officer position), simply because Riker chooses to follow the chain of the command and not be court-martialed; and it seems like Picard is too much of a chicken shit himself to go face the Admiral and demand the answers he wants.

I mean it's not like the Admiral was making himself unavailable at any point during this situation. If Picard was really that concerned, he could have approached the Admiral himself; or even make a move to relieve the Admiral because he felt the Admiral was putting his ship in a unwarranted and dangerous situation. But no he tries to browbeat his subordinate because he doesn't have the guts to face the Admiral himself.

But he knows RIker and Trust's Riker. It makes sense he would be upset if people, especially the person who has been a friend and his first officer for seven years was holding back a secret that put the ship in danger.

If you really trusted Riker he wouldn't have dressed him down and threatened him in that manner to try and make him do something that could have led to Rikers court marshal..

When Picard's in the loop and has to follow the chain of command; Picard is fine with everything. When he's out of the loop he becomes a raging hypocrite

Interesting also two more hours until we all get to see the new episode of SNW

 

[cooleddie74]

I just learned about that. I have a birthday party to attend around that time. Guess I'll catch it later tonight!
