I do not want a Section 31 show using any kind of concepts they developed in Discovery.
S31 is supposed to be a secret clandestine organization, not some fucking advanced bullshit literal massive fleet with TNG tech in the TOS era.
I have zero hope for this one. Section 31 was cool because they were so secretive and had their fingers in so many pies. Giving them a literal fleet is the antithesis of how S31 should work which is: privately, secretly and across the entirety of Starfleet.
On one hand, I am glad Trek is still alive and kicking. On the other hand, I am worried all these new shows and spin offs, and spin offs of new shows will cause the franchise to go the way of Star Wars, constantly churning out new mediocre shows leading to viewer fatigue and disengagement.
One thing I think they’ve done exceptionally well is give each project its own tone and premise - that goes a long way to help prevent that feeling of oversaturation.
Except to use that analogy, all those star wars spinoffs gave us quite possibly the best piece of star wars media out there (Andor)
Notably, Andor was NOT run by Dave Filoni. I worry that having Alex Kurtzman as the “Star Trek Czar” is going to backfire. He’ll get overextended and he’ll want all of his projects to interact (please for the love of god please keep series comprehensible as a standalone). You see it happening now with all of the mediocre Star Wars content.
