Looks like it's (accidentally?) region-locked: https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/star-trek-starfleet-academy-official-trailer-1236398403/

January 15 for SFA!

NP - I'm trying to hunt these things down as quickly as I can!

I think Kurtzman's mic skills have improved - at the very least, he's well-prepared.

I'm just grateful that NYCC does livestreams...

Ah okay, I was afraid you had something more insidious in mind that I hadn't thought of.

I guess I feel like the "rule of threes" is more pleasing to the ears and eyes, and "Star Fleet" has certainly been two words from time to time over the years.

But really, as long as no one's being a troll about it, I think it's all good.

There's some fun to be had in here - one of the "Distinguished Heroes" is Chwolkk, Class of 2376 - a Horta who served aboard the Titan in the novels.

Not sure I’m entirely comfortable with SFA as the acronym for Starfleet Academy.

Oh? Is there something I'm not thinking of?

I think it's a decent evolution of the ENT aesthetic - the warp delta in particular - at a smaller scale.

Not exactly awe-inspiring, but as a glorified commercial transport...

They probably won't, especially considering that the first version of the pitch has already been rejected.

But...the reason for that rejection has been addressed, and this seems like this show would have a unique identity, which has been a priority.

And frankly, this seems like a more interesting concept to me than any of the other not-quite-pitches that have come from creators over the last few years.

Far too rich for my blood, but their SNW boot pretty eye-catching.

Professor Stamets would be a sight to behold, second only to Professor Rayner.

I agree, but...legally speaking*, I think they have a decent case?

*I'm not a lawyer, just your standard online idiot

My best guess is that they consider her that radioactive.

Boy, is it ever!

I didn't expect Ceti Alpha VI to go "boom" quite so soon but here we are.

If anyone was still concerned that Khan would be somehow lionized by this series, his immediate decision to attack the crashed aliens should put that to rest.

Marla continues to be the most interesting character, trying to be the voice of Starfleet in the situation.

The framing story is beginning to get more interesting, as well, continuing to explore what the heck caused Ceti Alpha VI to explode in the first place.

Pour one out for the Argos - I feel like they didn't get a fair shake this year.

It will be very interesting to see how the Bombers fare coming off the bye - the Elks have improved a fair amount as the season progressed.

Unfortunately not - and it's a damn shame, since I agree that it's one of the better ships-of-the-week. Maybe some day...

The way they've been talking, it sounds like they're playing with the idea that Kirk seemed pretty comfortable on the Enterprise in his first episodes, so there may be unseen stories to be told before TOS season one.
