Yea I like the different iterations in the different time lines. I said this on another comment but I did/do not like his look for the character I don’t think he fits the look.

His acting is good I’m just struggling to get past him not looking like James T Kirk to me. Pine and Shatner some how look similar… Pine even got some blonde put in his hair. This guy just doesn’t look anything like Shatner or Pine or how I could/would picture Kirk looking. I feel I can’t be alone on this.

I was skeptical at first, but now I can say that I have been sold on this Kirk. There's something about his confidence, quick wittedness and his ability to do whatever he sets his mind to spontaneously that I like about him. Yeah he's not Shatner and he shouldn't be, otherwise he'd just be doing an impersonation of someone else. Rather, Wesley is portraying Kirk in his own way, while maintaining the essence of the original, which feels alot more authentic to me.

@astrofan1993

@@PeachWookiee I do remember reading the novelization for the 2009 movie, and I believe it was the elder Spock (the one from the Prime Timeline) who said that the crew coming together was the timeline trying to fix itself, so it only makes sense that there are similarities between the two timelines. The novelization also had Starfleet Academy forgiving Kirk for his cheating in the Kobayashi Maru test at the end of the book, awarding him a commendation for original thinking, just like in the Prime Timeline. That being said, there is a general rule of thumb in Star Trek that the only canon material is what is shown on TV and in the movies; novels, short stories, comic books, and video games are non-canon. Due to this, we wouldn't know for certain whether or not Kirk and Spock were at the Academy together, unless explicitly shown in a TV show or movie, so we can only speculate. It would be interesting, however, to see why Spock never took the Kobayashi Maru test if he was the one who designed the thing. You'd think he would have taken the test himself to work out any bugs in the system before releasing the final product. Plus, you would think that Starfleet would required him to take the test, since he was in the chain of command on the Enterprise (despite being in the Sciences division), and eventually became Captain of the Enterprise in The Wrath of Khan.

The William Shatner pauses between sentences is a good touch. The first meeting of part of the legendary crew is quite something. Very well done, this series IS a naustalgic love letter to the original series, and I love IT

the video is called William Shatner analizza il Kirk di Paul Wesley in Star Trek: Strange New Worlds | Comic Con 2022

Part of me half expected to see La'An watching from across the room.

And history is made, sneaking past like a thief in the night.

This makes me wish that Karl Urban can reprise Bones in a later season of this show. It probably won't happen (I doubt Paramount can afford him), but still.

They're doing a bang-up job of casting so far, the new Scotty is taking a little from Jimmy Doohan and a little from Simon Pegg, but he's making the character his own, same as Peck, Gooding, etc.

@@christopherrosas2738 OH MY GOD! Those two would absolutely clash! I've been wondering how M'benga goes from CMO of the Enterprise to a doctor on Bones' staff.

I think the only thing missing here is that maybe they could've quietly added TOS theme. Try not to make it to obvious, but something for the fans of the original Star Trek. It is great to see 3 members of the iconic crew together though, even if they are all a new cast.

I don't know about that. While it would be a nice memberberry, I think this way it underlines the absolute normality of the scene. There's nothing special about this meeting _except_ what will come from it. It's warm, and cozy, and beautiful because because it's understated. The future is quietly acknowledged, but the characters, and the audience, are allowed to just live in the moment.

Kirk: So, you're the fella all those erotic fanfics are pitting me against uh? I thought you'd be long- Taller, taller.

Uhura's face says it all

The writing was EXCELLENT! I absolutely love how they show the beginning of a family. No romantic crap, just people who love each other as a family, who trust each other and would risk their lives for one another. Fantastic job! I can’t wait for SNW season 3!

I didn't initially buy Paul Wesley as Kirk during the finale of Season 1, but Season 2 really gave him an opportunity to shine, and I buy it. I buy that he IS Kirk. Can't wait to see more.

*Jim meeting his future crew-mates. I Hope we get a take on The Original Series like this with the ENTIRE OG crew!*

Loved the Nichelle Nichols that seeped into Celia Gooding's voice in that "Well, that was....".

Celia Gooding can channel Nichols so well. The moment I knew she was perfect as Uhura was in the Season 1 finale. She _absolutely nailed_ the Nichols posture and the delivery of her lines in that episode. She knows the source material, and she's having fun slowly building her character up to that point. I can't wait to see where she takes Uhura!

The significance and all but....THAT BAR!!!!!!! So what do you do? Me? I'm a Star-fleet bartender, first class. Graduated best drunk in my class at the academy..

And so it begins.

That was a loooong handshake

One word....NERDGASM!!!!

Would have loved to have seen Q in the background walking away smiling....

Bonded as best friends over a shared frustration with Sam Kirk, lol.

I wonder if this show will end with the original time line starting and with pike sacrificing himself in the last ep that had better be one hell of an amazing scene

I would love to see the moment before Pike runs in to save them. I want to see Anson Mount play all those emotions across his face as he sacrifices himself for the cadets, the future of the Federation, and for Spock.

I am and always shall be, your friend.

I don't know, I was expecting a handshake like when the Mania made an alliance with the Madness to form the Mega Powers.
