Captain >LaLondra Montgomery - After her recent promotion to become Captain of the Starship Tubman, this strong-willed girl from Alabama finds herself thigh deep in the inner Beta Quadrant. Standing 166cm tall and 88kg wide, her short but imposing presence keeps young ensigns in check through her in-your-face attitude. Commander >Lunek - A female Benzite whose strict adherence to Starfleet principles sometimes finds her at odds end with more gung-ho officers. Quiet, yet passionate about the Federation, she will stand by her captain, even without her respiration mask. Trademark reverse thumbs up when approving of a request. Lt. Commander >T'Jaina - A MTF Transgendered Vulcan officer whose "unusual habits" has often gotten her in trouble with senior officers. She believes in freedom of choice and to "live and let live long and prosper". Chief Engineer >Memory Of Larkin - The functional Central Nervous System of a deceased officer carried in a mechanical shell is capable of using his past life as an engineer aboard the Starship Castro to come up with highly innovative solutions to critically dangerous problems. While not considered a completely living person, he retains all the rights of any sentient being and is treated with respect and admiration by his fellow shipmates. Doctor >Barry Goldwater - Starfleet's first Hasidic Jew walks proudly and expects officers under his supervision to take care of their bodies / machines, especially the "sanctified" regions. Can often be seen fraternizing with Ferengi shipmates / business associates. Conn >Nissan's "Huri Gotagogo" - A fully automated position sequencing robot has an emotional interface that allows it to communicate swiftly with it's crewmembers and make split second evasive maneuvers. Known for it's off-color jokes and ability to use the bathroom to change it's lubrication system.
Any ideas from fellow fans of ST?

Since they'll insist on a female, non-white captain.

The Original Series was created by a Jew to show off a future of perfect diversity. Are you dumb?

You don't know many police officers or pilots period.
Tyler Gutierrez
And nowadays people criticize him for not being diverse enough.
Look at how much ground has been lost, when we're arguing about how many transsexuals are okay for Star Trek when we used to whine about a black woman.

Actually, my friend is an LEO but that's besides the point. Gene isn't Jewish and you were wrong. How does it feel to be the idiot this time? >"I was merely PRETENDING!" Oh, well then carry on..
Easton Wilson
I'm going to be completely honest with you, Memory of Larkin is actually a pretty cool idea for a character.
The CNS of an officer in a robotic chassis would be pretty novel for a character, last time I've seen that done was Robocop.
Oliver Martin
OP here, user..
I didn't realize until I wrote this post in complete jest (not trying to even be Sup Forums-like or piss off Trekkies, just being funny) that Memory of Larkin DOES sound pretty interesting.
Kane from Robocop 2 came to mind to me only after seeing that someone thought it was a funny idea. It truly is one of the very few ideas for a fresh character I've heard that isn't outright people screaming "progressive crews more like" or something to that nature.

About 5 minutes.

Camden Foster
Thanks, I didn't realize 'til after the fact that his description doesn't have any overt note of parody to it.
It got me thinking about a character like that. It would have an android type body but the head piece would have to be like a highly resolute display, or maybe even similar to Robocop.
Although, if they really wanted a new character for the universe that is definitely one idea they could use.
Jordan Perry
Guaranteed cancelled aftter 2 seasons just knowing they're going to pull the progressive bullshit card, and CBS's subscription way of jewing will not fly with most Trekkies for something they're unsure of.
Thanks JJ for completely ruining Trek.
Zachary Foster
What pisses me off most about that prescription service is that anyone outside of the US will be capable of watching it totally for free as it will air on CBS stations in other countries.
And the pilot is going to air on CBS as well.
Not to mention, CBS is big network so regardless of who the head writers / producers are, they can be axed or countermanded very easily by executives if the material strays too far from an accepted narrative.
My main problem with it is actually the multiple crews idea. If they do come up with compelling characters, are they just going to take them away from us because the next season / arc is based entirely on another crew?
Aaron Ortiz
Is this whole 'new crew every season' thing 100% confirmed? I agree that this is the scariest part of the prospect. Imagine if our only exposure to the TNG crew was S1 or our only exposure to the DS9 crew was S1...
Jack Allen
Nothing about the new series is 100% confirmed
Christian Bennett
No, but "new crews" implies at least that the focus of the show will not be on a single starship or team of officers aboard a space station or colony. Also, let's not forget that the trailer promised us "new heroes" and "new villains". The term "hero" i/ "villain" s reminiscent of all this capeshit that is dominating modern movies and shouldn't new characters be expected? If we were told it's simply going to be all the same old people from before just in different storylines it would be dead in the water. Just hoping the non-teaser teaser was produced by someone not directly working under Bryan Fuller or any of the other shows announced production staff.
Daniel Edwards
yes. nolan north plays every single part. always in different makeup and with a different voice
Andrew Gutierrez
>If we were told it's simply going to be all the same old people from before just in different storylines it would be dead in the water. Reusing old characters is not the only alternative to using a new crew every season.
Angel Bennett
I should've been more specific. By same old people I meant Klingons, Romulans, and possibly old characters. More specifically races and cultures we already knew.

Cooper Mitchell
I hope they absolutely shit on the lore. Lorefags don't realize they're the reason there hasn't been any star trek in so long.
Hunter Cooper
There is so much considered canon that if the franchise is to continue they are going to have to bulldoze some shit There is so little left in terms of ideas to start with, then you write a script and suddenly some small detail from a Tos ep ruins it because you scribbled over the venerated canon

bashir was the first turbanwinder but they never brought it up plus julian is a european name so obviously it was implied he grew up in england with that accent
having a full blown backwards muslim would be very progressive
Jason White
Fairly sure he was Indian heritage living in Britain? Don't think they ever said he was muslim.
Lucas Davis
Its probably not going to succeed and will fail like some other fellow Trekkies have said in this thread.
