New details on Discovery. Set 10 years before TOS!
http://variety.com/2016/tv/news/star-trek-discovery-gay-character-cbs-all-access-1201835052/yeah, I got a bad feeling about that show. I think it is a mistake to have it in the original universe.
- that universe no longer exists due to the events in Star Trek 09. Therefore, they are technically doing a whole series that never happened.
That’s like telling someone they shouldn’t watch TNG because it never happened according to the J-brams films.
There is a difference between a show set in a universe that ceases to exist due to something made after the show and show that takes place in a universe that already has ceased to exist due to something made before the show.
The original universe still exists. That’s why the current film series timeline was given a specified name. There are two alternate timelines existing in ST cannon.
EDIT: I guess I typed to slow…
That is not my understanding of things. I thought that the events in Star Trek 09 changed history and turned the Prime Universe into the Universe of the new movies.
