more trailer!

Star Trek: Discovery, season 3, has a trailer! (Which I'd love to post here directly, but I only could find it on twitter.) Disgruntlement with certain elements in the s2 finale not withstanding, I did love one creative decision that changes the, hm, premise of the show, and the trailer indicates they really make the most of it. Which means that together with Star Trek: Picard, next year we will at last have not one but two shows which are set post-Nemesis and finally show us a truly unknown future again.

Speaking of Star Trek: Picard, it has a new trailer out, too, and this one is already on YouTube:



Three guesses as to which moment in particular made me go "awwwww", and the first two don't count. (I feel like a hypocrite, demanding new stuff instead of nostalgia fests, and yet I totally went gooey at the most nostalgiac moment in this trailer. But the affection the TNG cast, by and large, always came across as having for each other really carries over into the characters beautifully there.) That said, I'm also wildly curious about the new folk, how Picard will relate to them, they to him, and to each other, and I really am beyond thrilled that a character from a Star Trek show not TNG seems to have more than a cameo role in the new show.

In non-Trek news, a reminder:

Yuletide exchange promotional image using an image of a snow-covered house. Text says Yuletide - A rare fandoms gift exchange. Nominations 2-11 Oct. Sign-ups 27 Oct - 4 Nov. Works due 18 Dec.

And if you're still wondering which rare fandom to dabble in this time, might I introduce you to this one?

If Discovery s3 has no Pike and no Spock I am interested!

....okay Picard looks pretty aewsome, even if it seems to be Picard + Some New Young People (and Seven?!?) rather than Picard + the old gang. -- Showed it to T and he was immediately interested!

Yes, I loved her! and uhh she did not get a great ending on Voyager, did she. One thing about these shorter series is maybe they can get more actors, since the actors won't have to sign up for 22 eps and have more time? IDK.
