Star Trek: Strange New Worlds (Paramount+: trailer and title)

[Dr Mordrid]

Pretty much by fan demand after Captain Pike, Number One, and Spock made appearances on ST: Discovery and hit it out of the park.

The new series covers the decade before Captajn Kirk.

Writer/Producer: Michael Chabon

Captain Christopher Pike: Anson Mount

Number One: Rebecca Romijn. (AKA 'Una', Number One has been fleshed out; she loves spicy foods, habanero sauce on her burgers, etc.)

Spock: Ethan Peck (Gregory Peck's grandson)

Hit it!

Captain Pike takes command

[ZokesPro]

Number one would really like my super spicy relish. There's no vinegar, just vegetable oil, but the stuff is made with 6 different hot peppers I grew myself, more than half the of the entire batch are made from ghost peppers. Despite having made it outside on the bbq, I accidentally got a huge whiff of some spicy steam and caught a sinus infection a few days later.

I loved Discovery btw.

[Dr Mordrid]

I make mine using grill-roasted Serrano, Pablano, and Carolina Reaper peppers.

U run an exterminating service there Terry?

[Dr Mordrid]

Save for the wife we are a family of fire-eaters, and the hotter the better. Pablanos for making stuffed peppers rather than bells, diced peppers & onions in omelettes, chili that could strip paint, etc.

In MI we aren't alone as most markets carry a good selection of hot peppers, and many folks grow their own. Spicy international dishes are also popular.

Wait. What? Uhura? Chapel? Wouldn't they be teenagers at this point in the timeline? Or do they plan on Kirk taking command in season 3?

Videos not available. No doubt geo locked but I saw it on the Star Trek live feed yesterday.

Also Dr. M’Benga, who was in TOS.

No idea what the plan is. It'd be cool if they included cameos by Capt. Robert April - Pike's predecessor and first Captain of NCC-1701. Cmdr. George Kirk was his XO.

Will Spock here be intellectual again or will he be surfing on spaceships and punching people?

Ethan Peck has been doing a good job with Spock in Discovery, though younger and at first bearded.

Number One/Una Chin-Riley (Rebecca Romijn);

"We are not alone in the universe; our first visit from the stars is always the province of children's stories and science fiction--until one day it isn't."

Thank God for VPNs so we can see these blocked videos from Paramount who for some reason seems obsessed that people outside the US don't see them by geo blocking them..
