I seem to remember that the one shown in discovery wasn’t even a full set, this one will be.
Why did SNW alter the Enterprise bridge?
- Thread starter Mr. Laser Beam
- Start date
That corridor could still be there and simply be accessible by the turbolift rotating in place. They were probably only for access anyway, and maybe the ramp down to the sunroom or to any briefing rooms that might be on deck 1.
Maybe that ramp was always there in TOS, but we just couldn't see it anymore because the bridge was rotated 40 degrees counterclockwise....
Discovery is being filmed at Pine Wood Studios in Toronto, SNW at a newly built CBS exclusive studio a few km away in Mississauga.
Since the set is similar, but different, it seems that they reused portions of the Toronto set, with modifications, like the mentioned lack of a corridor.
Even in TOS had changes in the bridge, those gooseneck monitors.
The overhead monitors at the stations as well. They added Spock's slot viewer/scanner between the pilots and "The Corbomite Maneuver."
He saw there were more woman on the bridge than he thought.
TNG saw tweaks to the Main Bridge set through all 7 seasons before a major overhaul for Generations.
Seems to me that the SNW Enterprise bridge should look like some intermediate stage between the bridge from "The Cage" and the bridge from "Where No Man Has Gone Before."
Good point about the continual changes made to the set, however:
But it was painted blue for the production run, so yet another tweak.
Ah, that's right. It was there, he just didn't look into it. Good catch.
I will say this. It's only a visit by Anson Mount to a replica of the TOS Bridge set but he looks damn cool sitting in the original production run design.
Cowboy up.
He looks like Red Green!

They've got a completely new transporter room set from what we saw in the proto-SNW Short Treks as well. And that bridge has different lighting and colour schemes on the console displays.
I think this show might be a Superman and Lois to Discovery season 2's Supergirl. Same actors, same characters but pretty much a fresh start.

Time transpired. He's the right age where a few years can make a huge difference in terms of gray.
I'm guessing the new show starts in 2260, two years after the end of DSC S2.
That's true. My own hair is proof of that.
