Not a trekkie, but learning about the character's legacy and story kinda got me searching more about star trek. Anson's version of Pike is that charming and effective.

ANSON MOUNT IS BETTER THAN JAMES T KIRK( CHRIS PONE)

Fascinating to contemplate his 'march to tragedy'. He knows the major career steps that will lead to it. Even the accident itself, when it starts he knows he has seconds left ... The courage it will take as time winds down.....is mind bending. It's the single most haunting event in Star Trek, but also nice to know it ends in peace and happiness. 'Reality' to the mind is nothing but stimuli, whether actual or simulated.

Anson Mount is perfect as Pike.

What happened to Chris Pike is physically EVEN WORSE than what happened to Darth Vader. With the aid of his cybernetics he was very powerful and could still walk and sword fight and function and he needed help for it but he could still see,hear and talk. He suffered an arguably WORSE fate than Anakin Skywalker.

They are very very different characters. Anakin became consumed with anger and fear and made bad decisions that lead to his fate. Pike did what he did to save innocent people and was only a victim of circumstances. Their outcome doesn't seem related

This actually makes me want to cry at how sweet it is.

Finally Star Trek is back Anson Mount is fantastic he killed it in Hell on Wheels and he was the best episode of Discovery he is going to save Star Trek

And why Kirk went back for Spock when everyone thought he was dead.

It all fits together so beautifully. It's like an intricate puzzle. Like fate itself. Incredible character journey.

CAPT Pike is the closest thing I’ve seen that perfectly depicts some of the better US Military commanders I’ve had. Certainly the most charismatic.

Pike is so heroic. What the video glossed over, but was clearly states in "The Menagerie" is that during the incident where Pike is exposed to the crippling Delta radiation, he stills manages to save the lives of many junior officers who are in that section of the ship. When he leaves the gem on Vulcan he saves their lives in the process.

the current pike is one of the best captains ever

What a touching story.

always did want to see more of pike outside of the original pilot then him returning for the illusion. The new show gives that

Pike seemed to be a man who kind of fell into the hands of Fate after the Enterprise received the " distress call " from planet Talos 4 in 2254. He left Vena behind on that planet, knowing her disabled form, hidden by illusion, only to return to Talos 4 years later in the same condition. Those Talosians sure are match makers.

It was to repair the hemorrhage.

Little known fact but Pike spirelled downhill after this meeting , got in with the wrong space crowd , became a space pirate and worked his way up to command ... he changed his name to captain Davros but later became absolute ruler of the daleks and was known simply as ....Davros

What you should ask.. Is how far can the Talosians project an illusion..As Commodore was an illusion half way across the Galaxy.. And they knew Spock needed help. As they told Kirk he was persistent. And might get back control of the Enterprise. Before they reached Talos IV to complete Spock mission...

I'd be fine with retiring to Talos IV right now

That's was great man just wonderful

Episode 10 finally tie it all together, wow.

One question still remains, what year did he start with the pompadour?

finally thank you for the history lesson!

This new star trek can be go in two ways. Anson mount Pike has two choices now 1. Accept his fate. Then it is Original star trek timeline. 2. Fight with his fate and win so that totally a new star trek universe timeline can be created or branched. ( This new timeline can be created by mixing temporal wars story or by Q)

Loved this! Would be hella cool if they Captain America this dudeeee!

His story continued, after a fashion, in the Starfleet Academy comics from Marvel.

Jeffrey hunter did not reject Star Trek. His wife told him not to do it and he went to Europe doing movies. He got hurt and back in America died in 1969 from brain bleed that was originally triggered in Onset accident in Europe. Hunter did want the part of mike Brady that David hedison turned down. With part going to Robert Reed.

My head canon for the 4 years war is that the USS Enterprise was involved in the war with Robert April as the one captain for the ship as an active fleet command ship(as indicated by Star Museum website) on the final 2 years and then Pike was new XO on the final year and removed from the front to be overhauled and start its 2nd five mission.

That’s one complicated origin story!

Will Strange New Worlds be remaking the original TOS pilot episode before showing how he gets severely injured?

Sadly no has they already depicted what happened after in Discovery season 2 has the video trained to explain. They recast Vina for a few scenes in the episode "If Memory Serves" shared with Burnham and then one vital scene with Pike. Has you can imagine Discovery's make up department wasn't so loyal to the Talosian's alien design but they did have them for few scenes. Wasn't that exciting of an episode to me.

The Cage was filmed November/December 1964. It aired on television in September 1988. That’s 23 years not over 30.

Hopefully we go back to Talos in Strange New Worlds

Wonder if there will be an Episode where a Little Bird from the Future who chirps Spock Pike's inevitable fate into his Ear and that he plays an important role in the future of the Talosian? Spock must known what be happning and contacted the Talosians to develop with them this plan in The Menagerie.

At this point it seems like his surviving (barely) the accident and continuing on to the events of "The Menagerie" are pretty much baked in. But I'm sure that if the series continues for a few years they will flirt with the concept that he can somehow overcome fate, but in the end cannot.
