This casting makes it easy to attack as woke and might limit its audience.

In all seriousness, that would be the absolute best reason for this series to fail. I would be incredibly proud of it.

I didn't expect the apparent flashback framing device - Russ and Takei are a nice surprise.

Oof, I tuned in during the second quarter. It didn't look great then, and it only got worse.

Collaros is out again. The D line still gives up way too much.

Streveler looked okay, though. And good for Arbuckle - he had it together.

Whenever this happens, it looks absolutely fine on some Mastodon instances (I just checked, and this post looks fine on my own), and "wrong" on others (like yours).

That suggests to me that the issue may lie with the Mastodon server, but I genuinely don't know, and have no idea how to replicate the issue.

That is a bit of weirdness that happens sometimes when Lemmy posts federate to Mastodon. It sometimes grabs the thumbnail and headline from a completely different post.

I have no idea why, but it's incredibly annoying.

Honestly, my biggest fear is that Paramount+ may not have a lot of the demographic they're trying to capture.

How many young adults subscribe to that thing?

Like some other jurisdictions, Canada has protections against self-incrimination.

Any person charged with an offence has the right ... not to be compelled to be a witness in proceedings against that person in respect of the offence ...

I think they did something similar in the Whitaker era (which I did not participate in).

Best case, it'll be something to keep the series' profile up while they figure out what's next...

Commodore?

Kurtzman does confirm Klingons will be a part of the show; more specifically a "Klingon hybrid species who are several of our main characters."

And then we have this, seen on TrekCore's Bluesky:

Kling'Hadar?

For sure, they're both complicit but at the end of the day, the actual bribery was done by the outgoing owners so their deal would close.

I'm not arguing that the new ownership is good - it's more of an "oops, all bad guys" situation.

They seem to be pushing UNIT in advance of "The War Between the Land and the Sea" - that's my best guess.
