Hi Dave, I don't have a problem with Discovery/Strange New Worlds being considered canon as long as it is established that it isn't so much set in an alternate TIMELINE but in an alternate UNIVERSE where Klingons DIDN'T lose their forehead ridges to an augment virus in their 22nd Century and the 23rd Century Constitution Class design was more advanced than the Galaxy, Sovereign and Intrepid Class Starships of the PRIME Universe 24th Century, and let's face it, the Discovery AND SNW Enterprise are FAR more advanced looking, at least their interiors are. In the CW DC Universe saga "Crisis on Infinite Earths," Tyler Heochlin's Superman encountered his Brandon Routh and Tom Welling counterparts in different Universes, two Supermen with different faces to his own. In the recent "The Flash" movie, Ezra Miller's Flash encounters firstly the Bruce Wayne/Batman of his own Universe, the Ben Affleck version. When he is thrown into an alternate universe, he encounters the Batman of that Universe, Michael Keaton's version, and finally when he returns to what he believes is his OWN universe, he finds that he has instead landed in one where George CLOONEY is Batman. Same with the "Spiderman: No Way Home" movie where Tom Holland's Spiderman encounters his counterparts with different faces from different Universes, Toby Maguire and Andrew Garfield. So, as far as I am concerned, Star Trek ALSO has a multiverse with different Kirks, Spocks, Pikes, etc, and THAT is what the Discovery/Strange New Worlds Universe is. NOTHING to do with alternate timelines.

Going by established time travel Trek episodes such as Timeless (ST Voyager) and the rather large time gap, I would consider the 32nd Century seen in ST Discovery a 4th timeline (possible future) as any event occurring in SNW or Legacy could easily change the course of events leading up to there.

@@haplozetetic9519I would comment about the "huge improvement" part, but for the rest I agree with you, although more than Alternative timelines I always though that potential divergence could be resolved with establishing different alternative reality and then we move on or tried to improve the current series to meet previous quality standard, to me apart from LD which for all its jokes, at least was made by peoplel who know Star Trek canon, the rest of Nutrek doesn't deserve to be considered Canon or at least not the main Canon, also right now to be fair even Prodigy seem to have a different style and atmosphere compare to "Picard" that make me doubt that they are in the same timelines or even ENThas some, minor in my opinion, but still some divergence that divided it from TOS, in fact I always though that in ENT they made an error to not reveal that Daniels work for the 31st century version of Section 31 and that he has in fact actively change the timelines multiple times in order to create a more stronger Federation in Section 31 mind, after all don't you think starnge that for all their technologies Daniels doesn't actively help Archer and his crew but, it seem far more willing to use them as basically "pawn" in the Temporal War?

Oddly I've still never seen anyone mention the xindi... Even the new shows that say Archer existed and so did the original Enterprise still never mention that earth was nearly wiped out...

@Streifi

9 ай бұрын

Agreed. Enterprise especially dealt with some issues that never were mentioned before. The Suliban terrorists, the temporal cold war, the Xindi, the Sphere Builders, Earth at the brink of destruction as you have mentioned. Remember, when in Voyager the Hirogen went through the violent history of Earth and Mankind and jumped from the third World War directly to larger, interstellar conflicts? I guess they must have just overlooked the Xindi incident... Enterprise went through a lot of never established drama, but skipped the established events, like the Human/Romulan war. It was about to begin when the series was finally cancelled. But this would have been more interesting from a lore standpoint, than everything else, they did. So, of course, when Enterprise came out it rubbed me all wrong. I felt back then like many people feel about Discovery and Nu Trek nowadays. But I never explained it away as not being canon or another timeline. I just figured that out of universe, there were many bad decisions and in-universe it was a weird "We don't talk about this anymore" issue. The worst part for me was, that the producers said, they prefered a prequel over a sequel, so they don't get tied down by years of established lore. Which was nonsense, of course. A sequel doesn't tie somebody down with established lore, but a prequel most certainly will. You can't destroy the Earth in the past, when the viewer knows it still exists in the future of the franchise. What kind of logic is this? You want to threaten the Earth and make it believable? Do it in a future era, where the outcome of the conflict is unknown. Do it in the past and either the viewer will already know the outcome, detracting from the dramatic effect, or you violate the established lore, which the viewer might not like at all. A prequel is even more binding than a sequel, so the series certainly didn't work well for me. Also the focus on the crew as the inventors of mostly everything seen on the other shows before, from the red alert, to better transporters, to forcefields, all this seemed to be a bit too much. Like all geniuses the Earth had to offer were already on board of the Enterprise and there were no other inventors left. It felt forced. So, while I didn't like prequels because of these very reasons and wasn't fond of the Kelvin Timeline either (I watched it, I found it to be entertaining, but it wasn't the timeline I grew up with, I loved and cared for), I still accepted it to be in some way, shape or form canon. I wish people would do so nowadays with all the new shows as well. I only see one additional problem and I know, it's almost blasphemous to say this, but out of all shows TOS stands out of the franchise as a rusty nail, when it comes to the look and feel of the franchise. TOS doesn't resemble a more technologically advanced future and any show set in the same era kinda struggles with exactly this issue. One solution would be to simply refrain from doing prequels and to return to the "future", continuing to explore how stuff evolved since we last saw them, instead of trying to retell stories of days gone by. Another, most likely universally hated solution would be to slowly overwrite the TOS era with a more modernized look and feel. This only would work with a new timeline though. But then again, a new timeline might not stop at TOS, but might also overwrite TNG, DS9 and Voyager. So it's far from being an optimal solution, maybe it's really just best to let the past be the past and just return to the late 24th or early 25th century. Despite me not liking prequels in general, I'll make an exception for SNW though. It's the first prequel show I actually like. But I hope Star Trek producers don't make a habit of churning out prequels.

You don't need to be afraid because the entire premise of this KZread video is false. The whole "third timeline" thing is, despite the video title, not official, not acknowledged, and not canon. The official stance is that there's just the prime timeline and Kelvin timeline. This video takes retcons and tries to argue they represent new timelines, but the examples given (like SNW pushing Khan forward) is hardly new. DS9 traveled to 2024, no Khan or eugenics wars. Voyager traveled to 1996, no Khan or eugenics wars. Star Trek 4 traveled to 1986, no sign of an impending eugenics war. Star Trek has been retconning itself since the original series, and it's silly to argue that every single time travel episode (of which there are nearly 50) created an alternate timeline. Strange New Worlds was simply trying to provide an in-universe explanation for why the original 1992 date kept getting pushed back.

@@johntetreaultI’ve been saying NuTrek is a different timeline since the end of STD S1. It was obvious the marketing was using JJ’s slight of hand in his film to imply the divergent Kelvin timeline originated from what came to be known as the Prime timeline, from which Spock played by Nimoy emerged… just one problem… At the time of making that film, JJ wasn’t allowed to use the Classic Spock from the Classic timeline spanning the decades between TOS to ENT. Thus JJ created the Prime timeline, and as he admitted through the conversation between Spock and Spock at the end of the film… “Oh, I… implied” where on he refers to a conversation between himself and Kelvin Kirk that did not happen… that implying a thing meant Kirk and by extension the audience filled in the blanks without hard proof, or verbal confirmation of was actually happening. Thus people believed Prime to be Classic canon when it was not. Prime was just a timeline yet to be invented that began when STD aired its first season, when the split rights negotiations to move a trek under one production roof were still ongoing. It was later those rights came together under Secret Hideout but by then they had made Prime alternate continuity and were actively pushing away anyone from the scriptwriting team scriptwriters who might accidentally make NuTrek feel like Star Trek because they needed to build a new Trek brand for a new generation. They presented an alt continuity but refused to admit it in hopes of keeping the old fans aboard… because like Dr Who they knew… even if you aren’t catering to the old fans, their watch time still counts on streaming analysis so they would not actively chase them away in marketing. But the mask slipped years ago, and now with 15 seasons of NuTrek to it name people have more than enough evidence to see NuTrek is not only alt continuity… but in something I did not expect… many of their series don’t even line up with their own continuity, making Kurtzmans ‘multiple universes, same character’ Countdown comic the smoking gun of how he intended to approach his NuTrek.

Just an FYI, I am told by a good friend of mine, that in the novelization (audiobook version) of the original Chris Pine “Star Trek” 2009 Reboot, the reason certain characters met up with each other (I think Scotty and Kirk on the ice moon/planet) was “because the timeline was trying to correct itself.” (On the idea that “This is a *totally* new concept for Star Trek.”-10:05) Thanks and love your stuff.

Lower Decks belongs in the new timeline called the Red Angel Suit Universe with information provided by a time traveler who has interest in historical media.

If we get down to the bones of this conversation, there are several timelines (possibly hundreds). I can hang this on one episode in ST:TNG. In the episode “Parallels” Worf moves through a fissure that causes him to phase between alternate versions of his reality. Each of these phases, could very well be separate timelines. If this is true, we know for sure that each phase constitutes a different timeline. When the attempt to correct this problem goes awry, seemingly hundreds of alternate Enterprises were pulled into that current timeline through the fissure. They had different histories. This is canonically factual since TNG is canon. It may be theorized that correcting this event would destroy the other timelines, but I find that unlikely since that crew, with Captain Riker was willing to do it. I doubt they would consider suicide of their own existence, to help Worf get to one the one they knew little about. Consider this: this truth means even our reality, our timeline, is a canonical part of the series, as we’re still waiting for a Kirk or Picard, in our timeline the show is changing our world, as if Starfleet sent the idea back from a different future. We are a part of the show.

It's taken 5 years for you to figure this out? Despite the producers claiming it (The Kurtzman-verse) was the T.O.S. timeline we all knew it wasn't.

Third timeline works better. It works great if they also hold that the events of the original timeline also happened more or less the same way, but now there's a new spin on them. And this also gives them a way to do a TOS remake after Strange New Worlds.

I see this as an extension of the Temporal Cold War first shown in ENTERPRISE. ENT, the TNG era shows and the TOS films all must exist in this 'new' timeline as well. 1990's Earth is depicated in VOYAGER with no mention of the eugenics wars. The technology shown in the TOS films is more in line with DISCO/SNW as well. What's really interesting is that the date of First Contact (April 5, 2063) never seems to change. It's probably the Federation's temporally most vulnerable point so I'd imagine the era is littered with 30+ century time agents ready to thwart any temporal incursions.

I buy the idea that there are three timelines and I am O.K. with that, however another channel I saw also covered this topic and suggested that the tonal shift in "Picard" means it's part of the new timeline and not the original, and that the cannon problems in "Enterprise" also likely put it in the new timeline as well. I think I accept that reasoning a little more.

The addition of La'an was a HUGE red flag for me when they annouced the cast for SNW. It proved what I already suspected: Kurtzman & Co have no ideas. It's just recycled 'memberberries that add nothing and only prove how little they know about writing. FANS DON'T LOVE TWOK BECAUSE OF KHAN! They love it because it's a tightly-written and suspenceful character study about death and aging. It's about something real and meaningful. It's exciting and sad and thrilling all at once. But all these writers see is "Khan is cool, right? You liked Khan, so here's more Khan." Into Darkness made the same basic mistake. TWOK only works because the Enterprise crew is aging - this is clearly and explicitely the entire point of the film. It's not even the subtext - it's the neon-signed theme of the picture. I understood it when I was 12 years old and saw it in the theatre. But Kurtzman, Orci and Abrams somehow missed this- I assume because they don't understand the connection between character and story. It's a good thing nothing Kurtzman has ever done is actually part of Star Trek ...

I think we should have Q fix all the timelines as a sacrificing gesture and goodwill to all kind. Which will allow Star Trek to build a new cast with new territory to explore and new challenges, keeping all LEGACY characters as WAS and erasing bad timelines that create these terrible paradox's, remove current politics out of our shows, write new stories about different ships that make a difference, without hurting LEGACY timelines or stealing core personality traits from Captain Kirk.

Implications are vast, this way nothing is relevant, they can do whatever they want, disrespecting multiple decades of beautiful Trek lore.

Data in TNG sort of confirms this very thing when he explains about quantum realities. I think it's the episode where Worf is jumping between realities.

I think you have given this much more thought than the writers or IP holders…

Not only does changing the timing of Khan, the Eugenics Wars, etc. mess with Space Seed and subsequent events, but it also potentially messes with First Contact (the event as well as the movie). Cochrane wouldn't necessarily even exist, let alone have the idea for warp drive or the motivation to realize it (to make money). If he did all of that, would it be at the same time? Would Vulcans be traveling near by? Thinking further, would Cochrane then meet Jonathan Archer's father and the two of them work on the Warp Five Project? Would the incident in Broken Bow happen? And on and on we go.

That one line from tomorrow, tomorrow and tomorrow is exactly what was needed

I've been pointing this out repeatedly - but so many people are still determined not to accept reality. Despite what some seem to think, Trek has always recognised mutliple timelines and these have been front-and-centre of many storylines - and there are many, many more than four timelines.

I prefer to think of Lower Decks as being in the Prime timeline based on all of the references and continuous need for them. The Time Portal was also inter-universal as well similar to the Guardian. This makes inter-universal crossovers possible.

Aye. Burnham starting the war is a misconception… but what isn’t is… she actively prevented the war ending on the day it started by turning the Klingon responsible into a martyr. Burnham says it herself. Kill him and the war won’t stop. Yet she kills him, taking a hot second to flick her phaser to kill. That implies intent instead of heat of the moment. Heat of the moment would be hitting the trigger, perhaps multiple times. The case can be made that Burnham actively wanted Starfleet at war with the Klingons and when she saw the opportunity, took every step to provoke one, but was thwarted by her Captain. Knowing she would prevent an all out war at any cost, and having lost her Captains trust, Burnham manipulated the situation so they she and her Captain would transport alone to the Klingon ship, where with no witnesses Burnham was free to carry out her plan that involved the death of her Captain who could have stopped her killing the Klingon. Once that obstacle was out of the way, and with no one who could personally sway the court system, Burnham killed the Klingon, locking Starfleet and the Klingons into war while she as the only witness could manipulate the information at her hearing to remove herself from the front lines to the relative safety of prison where she could plot her next move. Her motivation was ofc the death of her parents and her own death before Sarek returned her to life by using a hithertoo unknown secret vulcan mind voodoo. With a humans desire for revenge and the cold calculating logic calculus, Burnham played the long game. Managing to train herself into a weapon that would both strike at the Klingon Empire, with Starfleet at her spear as she blamed the organisation for her parents demise. Opportunity and malicious resolve hidden behind decades of outward emotional repression allowed her to bypass Vulcan psyche evaluations due to no Vulcan wanting to meld with a human and relying on observations and questioning. But Burnham knew if she was evaluated by a human she might be vulnerable as she lacked the knowledge of humans to be sure she could trick them. Thus to avoid Starfleet psyche evaluations she leveraged Sareks relationship with a Starfleet Captain to accept her Vulcan science training as a substitute for academy tuition. Having gotten past the screening test could have stopped her plan, Burnham would then take stock of her situation and wait for the perfect opportunity to instigate war between the Federation, and the Klingon Empire.

The difference between the Kelvin timeline and the current Prime timeline is that the former was free to alter events as much as the creators desired, while the latter has to stick to the classic canon as a general rule, if not in every particular. "Arena" may play out differently in a few ways, but "Arena" will still occur in some sense. But "Arena" didn't happen in the JJ movies: Bones was already delivering Gorn babies before it would have happened.

We can argue their are 4 timelines, the 4th being in Star Trek Online. The online timeline exists where Data was supposed to have been revived before the Kelvin Timeline was created and at a time, Data was Captain of a Starship forgot which one. We can say the events that created the Kelvin Timeline made a split, one where Data was revived early and the one he was revived at a much later date

The Vulcan Science Directorate has concluded that time travel is impossible. Captain Jonathan Archer: Well, good for the Vulcan Science Directorate. Accountants: Excellent, now we'll spend an eternity on keeping track on all the timelines .. God: Oh boy :ø)

Riker and Troi (TNG) exists in the LowerDecks, as does Tom Paris (Voyger), so they exist in 'New Trek'. The Picard Foundation is mentioned as well.

The split happened when Scotty gave the transparent aluminum formula to the "I Quit Smoking" guy in Star Trek IV.

The events in Discovery were SO contrary to what I believe is the core of the Federation and Starfleet that, after a few episodes, I couldn't watch it anymore. Until I told a friend that I could only watch it if it was in a Mirror Universe (there are more than one, for sure). He said, "Yes! Do that!". And then it all came together and I could watch it. Then Michael's speech in the finale restored the spirit of Star Trek. Watching SNW, I really wanted to put it back in the TOS universe; so I ignored Discovery references. But, La'an made that nearly impossible. THEN the Gorn. THAT made it impossible. I had to put it back in a Mirror Universe. The La'an and Khan episode officially made it a new timeline! Now I can enjoy Pike's (alternate) story. Thank you for the detailed analysis!

In some fan stuff I did (blending together several Scify franchises), I quickly came to realize ST's timeline no longer makes any sense, so I fudged things by creating a new dating system 100 years off from our current Gregorian one, and thus, I had a 'lost century', during which time you could have several Earth wars, a few space wars, and even a 'Belter' period a'la The Expanse. Since this was a tumultuous time in Earth's history, it has been 'covered up' by a clandestine group, and most people are completely unaware of the duel dating system and the missing century.

I’m not a massive fan who keeps up with every detail but I have to say SNW has brought back that feeling I got from OG, NG, DS9, and the Abrams movies.

If Spock never used the Anti-time formula in the episode The Naked Time, the Enterprise would have been destroyed, the Doomsday Machine would still be at large, and V'Ger would have destroyed Earth. In short, Spock created the first known divergent timeline back in 2266. That might be a timeline worth exploring just to see what would change.

honestly, it almost feels like the oeiginal timeline is the one where romulans tried slowing down human progress, ignoring the eugenics war, mostly focusing on the technologies (bigger ships, holograms and stuff, etc)

not to mention the events of TOS eppisode the Tholian web since ST Enteprise Mirror Darkley has lore connected to that particular TOS eppisode

I've been explaining that its three timelines the entire time with people, and NOBODY would accept it. They just kept arguing with me. It only makes sense, and protects the TOS timeline from being destroyed by not following the established mythology and continuity. We definitely are at a point, where it should no longer be a United Federation of Planets....a United Multiversal Federation. Where certain Multiversal threats can be fought on multiple fronts, from each Universe. A occurrence that maybe Q was trying to explain to Picard back in TNG. I think it should be set up, that Original Spock knew of it, when Abrams Trek occured, and Sector 31 could see taking form. So its definitely best to have 3 alternate timelines. It makes Star Trek more diverse, and larger. Plus, again...our cherished franchise won't be put to ruin this way....

New timeline started with Enterprise, not Discovery. Remember the NX-01 didn't exist in TOS, TNG, DS9, VGR, or the movies. New timeline originates from First Contact film then continues with the Temporal War in Enterprise. Why they see Romulans and Borg in Enterprise, why the technology is more advanced than TOS, why elements of the NX-01 are seen in SNW Enterprise. And Picard is part of this new timeline as elements of this timeline have shown up in the series (Pike's Enterprise hologram at Starfleet's entrance, OV-65 model in season 2, and young Picard's NX-01 refit model and refit ship at the museum)

I've been mentally filing all that post 2005 Star Trek as alternate reality Trek since the 2009 movie. Granted I liked Picard season 3 and have accepted SNW, there is no way it takes place in the same reality as the pre-2005 stuff. What I don't understand is why they are so afraid of making new Star Trek that takes place after Nemesis but features no ties to pre-existing characters.

Maybe the whole “time is pushing back” thing can explain it? Like “time” made the Botany Bay faster so it would show up at the right time?

As far as I am concerned, real Star Trek died 2005 when Enterprise was canceled. Although the 3rd season of Picard was decent to be fair.

Growing up with TOS, I always find the inconsistencies jarring - T'Pring showing up in SNW when no one knew her in TOS as well as all the other changes. What I don't understand is why they had to go back before the time of TOS for a new series. I would have loved to have seen the ramifications of questions left over from TOS. For example, in "Plato's Stepchildren" in TOS, humans can have telekinetic powers. I wanted to see how that was addressed following that episode. I am sure Section 31 would be interested. Holding opposing ships in place with your mind would have been helpful in the Dominion War. Why wasn't it used? So many things from TOS could have been a jumping off point for episodes in another series following the timeline, and yet before TNG. Instead that had to go back before and start retconning/a new timeline.

To call the sick and absurd creations since 2009 by J.J., Kurtzman and Goldsman timelines is to legitimize them. In the background of this presumption is: - Inflated egos of these gentlemen who do not even know the word respect. - An indifference without comparison to everyone and everything that came before. - Destruction for the sake of destruction. - Doing something because one is able to do it - indifference towards people and consequences. - Greedily raking in money with a brand that meant the most beloved thing ever to millions of fans for over 50 years-. Disgusting

I want to see the timeline where Pike and Crew have an encounter with Gary 7.

I don’t have a problem with a third timeline. They sort of dealt with this in Star Trek episodes of the past that every action and every timeline can cause repercussions in a different timeline and so on just let us know which timeline we’re dealing with in this episode and I don’t have a problem. I just wish I could watch some of these new Siri‘s, but I’m stuck in a place doesn’t got me get that channel.
