Michelle Yeoh gets a Section 31 spinoff, Kurtzman hints at Star Trek Discovery's storyline and the PIcard show, and Star Trek Online begins its Ninth Anniversary with Captain Tilly #Silly4Tilly

In the Star Trek: Deep Space Nine episode, "The Wire," fun fact: the repetitive epic is the most elegant form in Cardassian literature. Also, Dr. Bashir is having lunch with plain, simple Garak. But things with Garak are not as simple as they seem. Kind of like the last time they had lunch. And the time before. And the time before.

In a parallel universe, Gene Roddenberry successfully used the Star Trek episode "Assignment Earth" as a backdoor pilot to launch a brand new series in the fall of 1968. With episodes needing to be produced, Gene would rely on story editor Dorothy Fontana to narrow down suitable stories and, like Star Trek, draw from existing science fiction authors. The Trek Files welcomes back Rene Echevarria to discuss a TOS favorite and what could have been.
