    I’m just gonna say it: Is anyone else not really interested in a show about Starfleet Academy? I’ll give it a shot, and it could be phenomenal, in which case I will enjoy watching it. But on the whole, that’s just not a setting that interests me in the slightest. I want Legacy.

        I’m okay with it. My problem with Disco is how high stakes breathless it is all the time, visiting the timeline with a lower stakes Academy lens could be cool. Being far future means it won’t be a TOS/TNG cameo fest (SNW’s biggest flaw) and I wouldn’t mind being able to do some actual character development on Tilly / other Disco crew if they weren’t just constantly in mortal danger.

        Of course it’ll probably end up being flashy bullshit again, but I’ll give it the benefit of the doubt for now.

          Anything at season one of Discovery or before. Not really interested in the “super future” era.

      I’m not but I also was not interested in a show about a space station and that turned out to be my absolute favorite so I will judge it on its own merits.

      They will drag in all of Tilly’s friends and STD storylines… in the 31st century???

      Come on… Starfleet Academy is going to suck.
