Interesting - it’s possible we’re drawing from different sources. I found this TrekMovie piece:

He was supposed to be directing Genesis’s episode, actually, in season 2, but there was some conflict going on, and hopefully he’ll be back again. He’s the warmest, kindest person.

Yeah, this is already something they can (and do) do under the terms of NORAD.

(The actor who plays Genesis recently let slip when asked about Jonathan Frakes, that he’d been originally scheduled to direct her character’s second season feature episode but there had been “fighting going on” and Frakes was pushed back to directing a later episode!)

Oh interesting…I tracked this down, and it looks like she said “conflict,” which could mean…just about anything, right down to simple scheduling conflicts.

One thing’s for certain: making TV is hard.

My first thought was debate class or something like that.

a cadet is forced to confront his past and strained relationship with his family.

The obvious candidate for this based on what we’ve seen so far is Darem, but…

What if it’s Jay-Den? He’s certainly featured in a number of the stills.

Yes, indeed.

This strategy will include measures to implement unit price labelling so Canada can compare easily in this era of ‘shrinkflation,’ as well as support for the work of the Competition Bureau in monitoring and enforcing competition in our market," he said.

This would be a welcome requirement in my books.

The whole situation is rather odd, but I’m not comfortable speculating about what may have happened.

I’m just glad that things seem to be okay between Wiseman and production, and there at least seems to be a chance that we’ll see more of her in the future.

“All Is Possible” was really not a favourite of mine, though.

He’s a central character in the upcoming comic book so I’m guessing that means we will.

He’s got some serious chemistry with Jay-Den, too.

Yeah, I don’t get where the “appeasement” narrative is coming from.

Where is Sylvia Tilly?

She was only ever announced as a guest star (which is bizarre), and one report has suggested that she’ll only be in one episode this season (which is…bizarrer).

Mary Wiseman was at the premier though, so I assume she’s on good terms with everyone. Maybe we’ll see more of her in season two.

Honestly, healthy choice!

In general, I’m a firm believer in “stardates were made to be nonsense, and should be treated as such,” but they’re fun to puzzle over once in a while.

stardates in the DIS era have been all over the place

I don’t pay a lot of attention to such things, but I was under the impression that they switched to the TNG-era stardate system following the time jump. Did things smooth out after that point?

Kurtzman has made some nebulous comments about there being some overlap, so I was open to the possibility that this was happening between seasons or during season five or something.

Not a lot to say about this one - I’m just glad Reno found someone.

And we have a stardate!

868858.7 - that puts it pretty definitively after DSC season 5 (coda excepted), assuming stardates are, you know, linear.

this time we’ll get it right i swear

Unfortunately, that’s also made me wonder if his days are numbered…

A lot of the CentrePort initiative has relied on the province being a good export route from the US, though.

I don’t think it’s clear what he means, tbh. I don’t see how it could mean anything other than a permanent military presence there, which…isn’t currently on the table?
