Well seeing a Star Wars like character in Discovery would not surprise me. LOL
But Star Wars has never been my “thing”, I have only watched the 1st three original movies. I thought they told their story well and that was that for me.
So the rest, (except for YouTube shorts), I have never seen and have no interest to see.
I have one friend who is so hooked on Star Wars it is scary, quote him “George Lucas is a God“!
LoL, He is still thinks I am strange for not seeing the rest of the Star Wars, but he does not understand Lord of the Rings/Hobbit (the books) and why I love them so much.

The only saving grace left… is that it’s not Star Wars. Albeit barely.
Barely? In many ways Discovery has more Stars Wars in it than it does Star Trek. I think that is what happen to Discovery, CBS wanted Star Wars like money Series. Not a “Cult” Followed Series, as far as the Rest of the Trek series I will not go down that rabbit hole of debate.
Each one of them has their good points and bad points just like TOS.
But what I wonder most is there a way to “save” Discovery, or would it even be able to be save or should it be?

Yeah, I am concerned too. Like the other thing I hold close to my heart – the works of Tolkien. When Lord of the Rings came out I was happy, and enjoyed the movies (for the most part), BUT I did drive my wife nuts with my “canon talk” with it.
But still over all I was happy with it!
Then the Hobbit came out, lets just say I hope in the name of all the Seven Seas and all the Gods and Goddess of the Heavens that CBS does not do to Picard what Jackson did to the Hobbit!

Well as far as the Picard Series, I might start a small brush fire with this statement but here goes.
Patrick Stewart is great actor so I want to assure everyone that I am not knocking him. And love the basic idea of Picard coming back —– BUT it is CBS, and they did come up with/launched Discovery.
So it going to be more NextGen like or more Discovery like? That is my worry.
aka @sgtken60 "AKA Grumpy Old Klingon/Andorian
I really would like a continuation of the Star Trek canon. The next generation *after* The Next Generation, not a continues reboot and rewrite and redcon. So I’d rather have a “Pike-like” captain from even further in the future than another reboot of pre-TOS… /rant.
Yeah I have to agree, while I do like Discovery I do not feel like watching it over, and over again like I do with TOS or any of the other series. And I would LOVE for the Next, Next Generation idea happen.
But I do not think it will ever happen, IMO with Gene gone and his family, CBS, etc. are only worried about cash, that his “world” can make them.
As far as canon, I can remember when people complaining about the changes to Klingons in Star Trek: The Motion Picture, so I normally stay out of the whole canon debate.
So I guess I am trying to be a moderate again, seeing both sides of the debate.
So if this post was out of line just take it down.

Silly Newbie Question 1001 Mark 5XJ3 – Alpha: Now that all four of my toons have gotten all the prizes for the TFO, can I save up the special Zefram Cochrane Memorial Hologram Voucher for next year or do they change?

Well I thought I would share a picture of my last ship in the USN – USS Whidbey Island (LSD-41) Landing Ship Dock.
