Or just tag one of the artists who posts on Mastodon. They’ll get the notification and can decide whether they want to respond here or not.

Vfx head Brian Tatosky did that when I that on another post.

Unfortunately, I can’t recall which of the animators have seen posting on Mastodon.

Clearly, the ability to be outside in appropriate clothing for activities isn’t being mandated. This is where a temperate climate enables ridiculous practices to persist.

All I can think about when I see this image is how in Ontario, the responsible provincial ministry requires all schools and ‘day nurseries’ (read day and after school care) to put the kids out in the yards twice a day unless the weather conditions are severe (Less than -20 or more than +30 Celsius.).

Parents are responsible to send their kids with suitable clothing for the cold. One rarely sees little girls in skirts in schools unless they are wearing tunic dresses over leggings.

In an earlier era, pre 1970s, when skirts were mandatory for girls, that meant switching to pants or snow pants from the skirts 3 times a day to go outside in winter (two breaks and leaving end of day).

Emily Coutts (Detmer) and Oyin Oladego (Owo) are never listed with the main cast characters. They and others like Patrick Kwok-Choon (Gen Rhys) are credited in the ‘also starring’ list in the post credits not in the main titles.

No reason not to believe Emily won’t be back. Oyin was in production as the lead in an independent feature last year so there may have been a scheduling issue as there was for Ronnie Rowe Jr (Bryce) when he was in production for his lead role in BET+ Series ‘The Porter’ during production of Discovery season 4.

Most of these Canadian actors filling in the bridge crew work on other Canadian projects which seem to be more crucial for advancing their careers even if working on Discovery was a regular income.

Brilliant thank you!

I remember seeing this. One wonders why this hasn’t been included in the BlueRays or included with the DS9 library on Paramount+.

If you’re on Mastodon, I’d recommend sharing it with the current vfx head Brian Tatosky (@virtualbri@mastodon.online).

I totally agree.

However, the number of posts I see elsewhere wondering if it will take place in the already crowded late 24th or early 25th century is surprising. So, there’s value add to Doug Adams affirming that.

It’s interesting that Doug somewhat confirms that Starfleet Academy will be set in the 32nd century.

Wow.

The physical media merchandising team seems to be excellent.

Fans really showed up to buy the Prodigy DVDs, but they also had really put in the effort to promote them. They even came up with party ideas and recipes.

Don’t impose your preferences for doing things in sequence or being a completionist on new viewers please. This seems really bad advice and likely to turn off more potential fans than pull them in.

OP’s question is about how to figure out how to engage someone in the franchise who seems to have her own specific preferences, and things that put her off.

I’m a viewer who first saw TOS as a small child when it was in first run, and everything in first run after that. It for others, there’s a whole range of shows for different tastes, best to figure out which one suits someone’s tastes and pull them into the franchise with that.

When we wanted to introduce our kids to the franchise, we started with TAS, then curated episodes from the other series. Like many tween, Voyager turned out to be ‘their show’ and it makes sense that Prodigy is strongly tied to Voyager. Our kids have moved onto other Trek shows and other franchises as they’ve moved through their teens. TOS, DS9 & Enterprise remain shows that they’ll watch occasionally. But one can never say that they’ve not liked Trek.

Not in real life, but there’s no way that all the Temporal Incursions (TM) in Voyager wouldn’t have had dates slipping a bit back and forth.

I’m so very glad that SNW took an episode to clarify what’s been lurking in the background as ‘inconsistencies’ ever since Roddenberry took the decision to move WW3 back a half century in TNG ‘Encounter at Farpoint.’ Makes better physics sense too.

Never have been convinced that the toy branding and marketing has been targeted appropriately for Star Trek.

Playmates never quite seemed to hit the mark. They were trying to create a mass market toy but marketing for collectors.

The other side of the Paramount house has done brilliantly with Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles branding, tie-ins and toys since they took them away from Nickelodeon.

While the television franchise is in good hands with Secret Hideout, bringing in some fresh perspective from the TMNT team seems very needed.

One our kids is currently putting together a ‘Jaxi’ music box with a Christmas tree on it. Turns out to be a BlueBrixx product.

It’s fine, and encouraging us to get more from them.
