Spoken like a true lunch carrier.
Would you say Picard is prime timeline or part of the Discoverse?
- Thread starter Yes Man the Great
- Start date
I take it you must walk to school?
Both...ways...
And the hill and snow situation?
I'm literally watching this video right now.
Siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh.
Yes, it's Prime Timeline. Yes, it looks different than previous Prime Timeline shows set in the 24th Century. This is because television in general looks different these days, and complaining about DIS and PIC looking different or having some minor continuity hiccups is really no different than complaining that TNG looked different from TOS and had minor continuity hiccups.

Just the latest of extrapolation of the trend started in TMP.
Both the trend of Star Trek producers constantly redesigning the Klingons and the trend of fans constantly complaining about it...

which of course was a sequel
Which timeline makes the better tacos?
I think there are two timelines. But having posted on TrekBBS, I've seen the error of my ways. There are three timelines as I've been led to understand. They are as follows. It's as easy as 1, 2, 3.
1. The Kelvin Timeline
2. The "Stuff I Like" Timeline, a.k.a. "The Prime Timeline"
3. The "Stuff I Don't Like" Timeline, a.k.a. "I'm Going to Call It the Kelvin Timeline Just To Piss Off Fans of STD and STP!"
Badda-bing, badda-bang, badda-bam.

The Klingon makeup design has changed three times in ST history. It changed in TMP, where they went from racist Fu Manchu caricatures to guys with narrow, boney ridges down the center of their foreheads. It changed again in TSFS, when they suddenly had all sorts of bumps all over their foreheads. Worf's makeup design changed throughout TNG -- his bumps were totally different in "Encounter at Farpoint" vs "All Good Things," and the "All Good Things" flashback scenes kept the S7-era makeup!
None of those made their shows "not fit" into the Prime Timeline. Why hold DIS to a different standard?
Hell, the Klingons aren't the only aliens whose makeup designs had major changes. The Andorians gained bumpy foreheads in ENT where they'd never had them in TOS. The Tellarites suddenly had five fingers in ENT where they'd had three on TOS. The Trill went from having bumpy foreheads (and from the symbionts being the real person) to having spots down their sides (and symbionts who merged with instead of taking over humanoid hosts). The Nausicans went from having insectoid-looking mandibles in TNG to normal humanoid mouths in ENT.
Why are we holding DIS to a different standard than prior ST installments? Why can't we just accept that it's a change in production values and aesthetics, and that in-universe Klingons look Klingon?
There are three distinct universes in Star Trek:
1. The Prime universe.
2. The Kelvin universe.
3. The Brian Brophy universe.
And PIC definitely ain’t in universe #3.
The Tommy Westphall universe.
