I guess if I can't get past the NX era as ^^ Jean-Luc Picard cannot, then it won't be a huge loss. Those words resonate right now as loudly as they did when Star Trek began, over 50 years ago.I just picked this game up today for 7 bucks. Michael narrates in the beginning of the teaser that even when things are at their scariest, we can overcome anything working together our diversity is our greatest strength. Star Trek, when at its best, reflects the hopes and concerns of the current era. And to be super clear, we will pay that moment off in Season 4. We will continue to do that for the show, and the world we live in, but also, to honor the Star Trek legacy.

It matters there are non-binary and transgender characters. “It matters to see a version of yourself on screen. In an article with, Michelle Paradise, Discovery show-runner explained: Following the concept of IDIC, each character has represented diversity in a way that no Star Trek series has ever explored before. The third season took us 900 years into their future, where the Discovery had to solve the mystery of “The Burn” that almost completely destroyed the United Federation of Planets.Įach season has had its own uniquely-Trekkie story arc, full of complex, engaging characters. It also featured Captain Christopher Pike, played by Anson Mount, who got the chance to portray Pike in a way we all hoped he would be since we first were introduced to him in “The Menagerie” in Star Trek (the original series). The next season, Discovery was searching for the mysterious “Red Angel,” and in the process brought aboard Michael’s “brother,” Spock.


The first season found Michael battling against the captain, played by Jason Isaacs, who turned out to not be what he seemed, nor in the right universe. No season is ever alike (mild, season summary-level spoilers ahead). The last three seasons have seen Sonequa Martin-Green’s character, Michael Burnham, grow into the rightful captain of Discovery.
