It’s pitch week! Anthony and Laurie are joined by Trev and Stanley from The Salon to talk about all the Star Trek TV pitches out there—but they start with an in-depth look at the brand-new clip from the first episode of Star Trek: Starfleet Academy. They talk about Paul Giamatti’s insights into his SFA character, Nus Braka, and Robert Picardo’s confirmation on which version of The Doctor is in the show. They discuss the sentimental posts from Strange New Worlds actors as production heads towards its end, and the imminent departure of Prodigy and other Trek shows from Netflix across the globe. Then it’s time for the main topic: all the TV pitches out there for new Trek series from creatives who’ve already worked in the franchise. They break down each one—ideas from Tawny Newsome & Justin Simien, Terry Matalas, Mike Sussman, Akiva Goldsman & Henry Alonso Myers, Aaron Waltke, and Jennifer Muro—and assess its viability as a group. After that, each person makes their own pitch for a Star Trek show that is assessed by the others: Greenlight? Development deal? Hard pass? Listen to find out.
