Meaningless blinky lights give me purpose. Those consoles are close enough that I'm content with what we've seen thus far.
USS Enterprise (eventually) on Discovery?

I'm not a fan of the neon blinking screensavers honestly. They were 90% of the reason why the TOS bridge looks so useless, when in fact it could be quite useful if it had meaningful displays. Any update should have done away with those.
I wouldn't have minded a straight TOS bridge, but with a widescreen and meaningful displays, including holograms. That would have been the perfect upgrade. I like the bridge we seem to be getting now, but it's a little too red glowing. It looks like the interior of a Klingon ship.
SCOTT: The Enterprise. Show me the Bridge of the Enterprise, you chattering piece of

SCOTT: NCC One Seven Oh One. No bloody A, B, C, or D.
COMPUTER: That ship has had multiple bridge configurations. Please specify the stardate of the bridge you would like to see recreated.

I love how you manage to, in the same breath, berate people for objecting to something for selfish reasons, and then support that thing for your own selfish reasons.
Because it's not about you, it's about the whole of the target audience, and they're not going to look at a set built in the 60s and say "wow, that is so cool and futuristic!"

Unfortunately Black Alert switches all the lights off and no one can see a thing.
Who knew Pike was a bigger party animal than Kirk?
Are there stills time the shots of the Discoprise bridge?
Oh, I have the answer! Kirk's bridge was holographic. It was literally a holographic bridge in a design he liked best.
Pike's bridge in Discovery is how the bridge really looks like under those holograms. When Pike said to turn off the Enterprise holograms in Discovery, he meant to eliminate that ridiculous retro 1960s style holobridge. That's why it looks like it does in Discovery now.
On another note, something REALLY bad must happen because of those window/viewscreens between 2257 and 2265. We already know they were using them as of the Kelvin in 2233. By TOS, all window/viewscreens have been completely removed.
Maybe a Klingon was hiding in a spacesuit on the hull and peering into the bridge using these windows.

Maybe it was the battle bridge. Kirk was agoraphobic from living in Iowa and preferred the more cramped surroundings.
That's popular with me.
Huh?
Oh look, Ex Astris Scientia is whining again.
