It's not public yet, but I'm getting word the Khan Prequel idea is dead in space. Effectively all prequel ideas are dead from this point forward.

For what it's worth STD will be rated TV-MA in the states. Fun fact The Walking Dead and Hannibal didn't even get that.

Okay, dreddzilla, as you post many negative links about new show. And you still want watch it?

Nope!

"I only 'don't care' about them in the sense that I know they're all going to watch anyway."

Apparently he believes Trekkies will watch anything with the name "Trek" attached to it. Star Trek ENT proved the opposite.

Of course they are "terrific".

Bad news for all the outgoing CEO's pet projects.

Quite. I believe the standard Hollywood tactic is to immediately cancel all your predecessors projects, since they'll get the credit if they are successes and you'll get the blame if they fail.

So should we go ahead and and declare this show "Aborted" then?

ENTERPRISE: THESE ARE THE VOYAGES...  as it is finale but it about Riker not about Enterprise.

Agreed, Easily one of the WORST episodes of any Trek series Ever. It's in my top five worst episodes of Trek.

  Yeesh, Klingon women weren't exactly attractive before, but Jebuz, they got fugly!  http://www.treknews.net/2017/08/01/star-trek-discovery-photos-mary-chieffo-lrell/

It's confirmed STD is it's own continuity not related to Prime.  http://deadline.com/2017/08/ep-alex-kurtzman-explains-initial-delay-in-air-date-with-star-trek-discovery-tca-1202139794/

I guess CBS realized the jig was up.
It probably dosen't help that the latest rumor going around is Spock dosen't even exist in this series timeline.

Is anyone really demanding a KHAN series?

Unconfirmed, but several sources are saying STD is done and further episodes won't be filmed. The CBS execs are said to be having an emergency meeting on Monday.
Word is Moonves will be asked to step down.

All the rumors were true.  http://trekcore.com/blog/2017/07/new-ew-issue-details-bryan-fullers-discovery-departure/

Nothing announced, I asked if there would be any surprises for SDCC but got no answer. I didnt expect 'the surprise is' but a teaser would have been exciting. I'd love to see some good news on upcoming releases, maybe CF can get something out of them. If nothing else comes in 1:12th other than Fire I'll be gutted.

At least we have 1:6th Dredd to look forward to.

The Klingons are no longer a representation of the "Russians" but of ''Americans".     http://trekmovie.com/2017/07/24/sdcc17-interview-star-trek-discovery-showrunners-on-why-the-klingons-arent-the-russians-anymore/
