The Bloop posted:It's on at the half-hour? What the hell is this insistence with doing everything possible to fail. It might be on at the half-hour, maybe, depending on when the football game ends. 60 Minutes has to air after that, of course, then STD. After that we can watch whenever we want on All Access, as long as when we want is after they put up the episode each Sunday(???) at ??? time. Thankfully you'll only have to keep track of that during the first "chapter" of 8 episodes, as they are breaking the season in half. The second "chapter" starts in January sometime, and things might have changed by then, maybe? Make sure to keep your All Access account active the whole time to keep updated!

Were they that attached to shoehorning in Sarek? skasion posted:Bryan Fuller is an idiot and thinks it is interesting You could be right, but I'm not going to blame him since he was fired and they could have and did change anything of his they wanted to.

EvilHawk posted:Just saw both eps, having never seen a Star Trek series in full (I think I caught a few eps of TNG and a season or two of Enterprise). I have seen (and liked) both films, so I understand Trekkies will probably hate me. I've seen a few people mention that both sides are morally grey. How is anything the Klingons did morally grey?

Autism Sneaks posted:It is the textbook definition of a parody. What parts of Star Trek are they exaggerating or making fun of? There is perhaps a tiny amount of parody, but the show is mostly played straight and the jokes that are there are in-universe.

The Bloop posted:CBS has apparently announced that due to "success" with All Access subscription numbers, they are changing the airdate schedule. They are trying to get an extra month out of subscribers on the front side before they cancel.

Fidel Cuckstro posted:So that's the telescope from the Shenzou, eh? I like that they bothered to go back to save the telescope but didn't bother self-destruct or destroy the wreck so the Klingons couldn't get their technology.

Cojawfee posted:Can you show fake Klingon titties in syndication? It seems like Tyler definitely is some sort of Klingon spy and it's going to be super lame. Once you have a character that is not recognizably human, you can show all the titties you want. That is why they went overboard with the face prosthetics. It is considered basically equivalent to showing a naked cat now.

Bryan Fuller wanted Discovery to be an anthology Star Trek show. Hasn't it turned into that, just with the Discovery being constant every season?

FuturePastNow posted:It looks like they're making a bunch of 12-13 episode miniseries to see what sticks. We'll probably only get more seasons of the 2 or 3 most popular ones. I wonder how cost effective that is with Star Trek. Normally sci-fi shows have large startup costs, but maybe they can reuse a lot more than normal with 40 Star Trek shows being produced at once.

Pastamania posted:Netflix basically bankrolled it in return for international rights. Whatever it does for that CBS streaming service is basically irrelevant for the future of the show, Netflix is the real buyer. Given they have a nasty habit of just suddenly canning shows after 2 seasons if the viewership isn't there and gently caress you if you wanted any sort of resolution, and given Disco made it to S3, it's probably done ok. Supposedly that was just for season 1.

CoolCab posted:oh it's definitely still a flagship Netflix title in the UK - bus ads and promotional support and everything. No doubt it is still a major title for them - I've just heard that they were pretty dissatisfied with the first season and where the first season was indeed paid for by the Netflix deal CBS had to cover a lot of season 2. This is backed up in the fight between CBS and Netflix over Short Treks (supposedly CBS wanted Netflix to pay the same amount for those they were for the full episodes, and in the end they basically gave them to Netflix) and that Netflix wasn't even involved in the bidding for Picard.
