A 90 minute animated streaming movie for either Netflix or Paramount could be great.

I suspect you’re correct on this.

I have been looking for a ‘special presentation’ on CTV linear as they have a track record of inserting those when they’re out of alignment with streaming releases.

Checking the CTV Sci-fi schedule on Thursday, July 5th at 9 pm - the usual slot for new Star Trek - Snowpiercer is shown. The rest of the evening has the usual Star Trek Voyager reruns.

Sigh.

The closest Chapman’s flavour to that might be Premium Chocolate & Brownies Ice Cream, but Rok herself might like the classic Rocket ice Lollies.

TrekCore is saying that in Canada season 1 will be available on the CTV app.

😞😢😭😿😿😿

😞😞😞😞

The app won’t carry any new episodes On Demand until one day after they run on cable.

But the second season isn’t showing as a future option so that’s concerning.

I’m ever hopeful, but Prodigy isn’t a great fit with CTV Sci-fi Channel given theirs advertisers.

I’ve been checking CTV Sci-fi forward schedule in case a ‘special event’ might show up.

Complete void.

I take it you haven’t seen Prodigy yet.

As Hologram Janeway says in Prodigy, “We’ve only just begun.”

Because Prodigy had to be about Janeway and more timey-wimey stuff.

I first heard of the sweater curse more than 30 years ago.

It’s been a thing in knitting circles for generations as far as I can tell.

Experienced it.

The curse is likely based on the item being too much pressure on a relationship that’s not ready for it.

If you’re a really experienced and fast knitter that’s regularly knocking of sweaters for yourself and perhaps have done small ones as gifts for friends kids, it wouldn’t be the same.

But if you’re looking for love to motivate you through your first big project, it’s a disaster waiting to happen. All the more so if you’re toting your project with you and knitting in public.

Some interesting stuff in this article.

It looks like Skydance thought that getting the non-voting class B Paramount shareholders on board would put pressure on the voting ones.

But it seems like Redstone was sensitive to the minority group of voting shareholders and that they were not on side. That is, it wasn’t enough to have the Redstones as the majority holders of class A NAI shares, and the majority of non-voting class B Paramount shareholders, Shari Redstone felt she had to have sufficient support from the minority of voting NAI shareholders to avoid problems such as accusations of imposing losses on a group.

“According to a source familiar with the talks, Redstone’s request for a “majority of the minority” vote, in which other Class A shareholders could vote to approve or nix the deal, was a nonstarter for Skydance, and the studio was anticipating a regulatory review of more than a year, which gave Redstone pause given the constraints it would have required of the business in the meantime.”

I believe their licence for Star Trek has expired so what’s already ordered is it.

Mine hasn’t arrived yet but it’s on the way.

I have no idea what the second is, but if Marvel has hired her, they are very smart.

I was surprised that Gersha Phillips wasn’t the head costume designer for season 5.

Do we know if she was tapped for that for the S31 movie instead?

Short Treks season 1.

Should be available on Paramount+ but you may need to hunt for it.

Some context on the Saskatchewan aspect that puts helps to understand the concerns being raised:

“Weekes also said Harrison once sought permission to bring a gun into the legislature. Harrison initially denied the allegation but resigned last week after admitting he had forgotten about the incident, which happened more than a decade ago.”

The CP photo caption says the incident happened in 2016.

While I’m still burning that SNW introduced the first main cast person with disability and killed them off just to lean on the crutch of development-by-death-of-mentor for Uhura, I’m super happy that Bruce Horak is now being regularly cast in guest star and recurring television roles in Canada.

It’s a long way from a Star Trek stint being a career-limiting choice as it was viewed in the past.
