The "incident" Fuller mentions in TOS that Discovery will explore

But

the Vulcan heart is around where the human liver would be. :vulcan:

Wait. *That* doesn't sound to me like what was referred to by "The season-long story line revolves around an incident and an event in Star Trek history that's been talked about but never been explored".

Now that S1 is over, what was the incident/event? Sorry my memory can't answer this for me.

(Had the "Battle of the Binary Stars" been talked about? If so that could be the incident. And perhaps the event was the war with the Klingons?)

I still think he was referring to Picard saying the first contact with the Klingon's did not go well. If that's the case it's accurate but inaccurate at the same time. It wasn't the first contact unless he means first official contact in 100 years. In either case, both went badly, though this one went much worse than Broken Bow incident.

Seriously am not sure.
A "hot war" between the Federation and the Klingon Empire.
Except there was no mention of such a thing in canon prior to "Errand of Mercy"
 
Fuller never actually said that the incident around which DSC's first season revolved was mentioned in passing in TOS.
 
So in other words, we still don't know. Not that it matters, but I'd like to know what the hell Fuller was talking about for no other reason than to see if, or how it panned out in the show.
 
Fuller's plot wasn't jettisoned, though.
Yes it was. You're completely wrong on that point.

Please save yourself the effort of posting references and public statements from representatives of the show. That is the weakest "evidence" you could fall back on.
Everyone is not similarly credulous.
 
If Fuller's plot had been jettisoned, we would not have had Season 1 as we got it, because its biggest pieces - The Klingon War and the trip to the Mirror Universe - were conceived by Fuller.
