As a long-time Star Trek fan, I appreciate the unique qualities of each series. **The Original Series** set the foundation with its bold exploration and social commentary. **The Next Generation** expanded the universe beautifully, introducing complex characters like Picard and Data. **Deep Space 9** broke new ground with its darker themes and serialized storytelling. **Voyager** offered a fresh take with its focus on survival and diverse crew dynamics. **Enterprise** had its moments, especially in exploring the franchise's origins. **Discovery** revitalized the series with stunning visuals, while **Picard** brought nostalgia and depth. **Strange New Worlds** perfectly captures the spirit of exploration, honoring the legacy while delivering new adventures!

Star Trek - Strange New Worlds

OK we have 2 things that need to happen with this

1 - They need to build twards Jim taking command of the Enterprise after Series IV

2 - End it with Captain Pike after Series IV and spin off Kirk in a new series.

I do like the fact that Nyota Uhura has been way more involved story wise and not just somebody who was just there as in the Original Series. Uhura should be getting one more promotion to Lt. as well soon.

We now also need to pick up McCoy and Checkov at some point soon.

Saw Series II on DVD BTW.

Eh, I like the show's Pike a lot more than I do its Kirk. We already have TOS, TAS, six movies, and the Kelvinverse; I'm okay with not doing another redux of the classic crew.

Bones and Chekov didn't board the Enterprise until after Kirk was in command. If we're going to do a full transition to Kirk, the real fun will be in seeing Gary Mitchell.

There was also Lee Kelso and of course Piper would have to join the Enterprise I'm thinking soon. Piper was the CMO before McCoy.

Regardless of the current Captain Kirk it would be interesting to see a new take on TOS just to see what they could do with it.

Strange New Worlds continued after Discovery Series II for their 1st year.

I'd love to see them lead into TOS.
