A note about episode discussions on startrek.website
Right now, the plan is to post the /c/startrek discussion when the episode drops on Thursdays. Once the global community has had some time to watch and digest what they've seen, the /c/daystrominstitute discussion will go live on Sundays for a more in-depth analysis. This is subject to change as we evaluate what works best for the community as a whole.
You're viewing a single thread.
If my memory is correct, this episode contained more than half of the scenes from the trailers, most of which were theorized to be from different episodes.
That leaves two possibilities:
-
this episode is the most interesting episode, which would be unfortunate but not unheardof for Paramount
-
the best is yet to come, and we have no idea what's coming.
I choose to believe the second, for now, and I'm excited.
So, I used to work in TV marketing at the network level and I can tell you typically trailers are made up of the first three episodes or less. No real secret why though - usually the show is still working on the other episodes.
In one of the panels Anson Mount was saying that if you think the Lower Decks cross-over episode was the craziest thing they've done for season 2, we would be surprised what else to see, so yeah, I think we are in for a good treat.
