No, that ain't happening. What you've seen so far is what the show is going to look like for the next 3-5 years.

We’ll see this coming July……

Picard looks completely different from this season to last. I doubt that SNW will be much better.

Did PIC go from 2022 production values to 1966 production values?

More like 1995 ish.

No offense, but I get the feeling you're intentionally trying to miss my point.

No offense taken.

And no, I am not. But we can move on because I don't have the patience today to do this. You win.

Well, you started it.

 

[fireproof78]

Well, you started it.

Yes, because I felt that the first episode of Picard felt like 1995. And I ended it.

Cheers.

Don't get mad at me because you didn't wake up with a sense of humor today.

I'm not mad at you.

And I don't have a sense of humor any more.

I am thinking Children of the Comet might explore the space hippies in TOS. Time to see if Pike is a Herbert or if he reaches.

 

[cooleddie74]

That's now. REAL now.

I can see them doing a Short Treks in true TOS style, but not a 40 minute episode.

They could mock up full virtual TOS sets (or anything) on their new..., I forget the name.... LED wall screen thingy.

They've got full TOS sets on their Official TOS Set Tour in Ticonderoga, NY. Apparently they were approached about filming there awhile ago but nothing came of it.

IIRC, when those sets were the New Voyages/Phase II filming sets, the lack of soundproofing meant takes would get ruined by trucks passing outside. And the lack of air conditioning made things quite unpleasant in summer, especially for people in prosthetics (like J.G. Hertzler in Of Gods and Men)

But I'm sure they could make it work if they needed to, and that the result would be far superior to any virtual set.

Pike is a Herbert.

 

[Jayson1]

I mean if they think Kirk was a Herbert I can very much see them seeing Pike as well. Thankfully Spock will be around to jam with them if need be.

Looks like John Billingsly turned down an appearance as Phlox, citing hours in the makeup chair. Click!

 

[NCC-73515]

Odd considering his behavior at conventions XD

So Paramount+ has no excuse not releasing the trailer now. They released the first trailer for Season 2 of Picard over 6 months ago. Why are we waiting for a teaser to be released a month before the series premieres? Why the hell is Paramount being such stiffs?! ANYONE FROM THE INSIDE GOT ANY DAMN INFORMATION OR WHAT?! I'm actually getting angry now...there's no justification for this lack of coverage and advertising! NONE! THEY ARE INTENTIONALLY SABOTAGING THE SUCCESS OF SNW WITH THESE ACTIONS!!! Its JUST LIKE the Star Trek Beyond lack of advertising....there's literally no info for the casual viewer to tune in...only info for the DIE HARDS! What is up with that?!

Because Star Trek Picard season 2 episode 1 just premiered. For me it's interesting that they premiered Picard while Star Trek Discovery still has three episodes remaining ( including the one that premiered the same day as the first episode of Picard.)

Yeah right now their push is to draw attention to the new Star Trek that is actually streaming at this time.

You'll probably see the marketing push begin for SNW when there are three episodes left to stream for Star Trek Picard.

But yeah you're not going to see a marketing push for another Star Trek show when there are two Star Trek shows still airing new episodes, and one of them is just beginning its new season.
