The author's position is basically that Pike is the Star Trek "Dad" we've always wanted.

Can confirm, although as someone close to his age bracket, he is also extremely fine.  And, somehow, that's not creepy. 

I was a little disappointed that the otherwise-excellent article didn't mention the difference he was making with La'an.  He's even got her raving about his cooking.

Episode 9, of Strange New Worlds, “Subspace Rhapsody,” streaming on Paramount+ on August 3, 2023 (this is what the article says, but I think it should be August 10, 2023) will be a a musical, with 10 original songs.

I’m hoping this episode is a  ‘Once More With Feeling!’ and less of a ‘Allamaraine, count to four, Allamaraine, then three more,
Allamaraine, if you can see,
Allamaraine, you’ll come with me…’

situation, but who knows?

Anyway, everyone seems to be kissing everyone, so perhaps the DS9 episode it’s most like will actually be ‘Fascination’ where Lwaxana makes everyone fall wildly in lust with each other.

You know, when you have a character that was previously played by a very talented singer who is now played by a Tony-nominated performer, you kind of have to do a musical episode, don't you?

Some cast members were at Dragon Con this past Friday (note how they deliberately don't mention Star Trek or Strange New Worlds)...

Modern-Era ‘Wagon Train to the Stars’ Cast Tells All
Max Caracappa   September 2, 2023 
https://www.dragoncon.org/dailydragon/2023/modern-era-wagon-train-to-the-stars-cast-tells-all/ 

Quote

When Tony Gowell gets his friends together in a room, it’s always a recipe for a good time and a good chat. Friday afternoon at 5:30PM in the Marriott Atrium ballroom, “Tony Lately” sat down for a chat with Celia Rose Gooding, Christina Chong, Ethan Peck, and Anson Mount. Why those four people? Oh, no reason. Just because. You know. It turns out that Gowell also invited about 2,000 other people to sit in on this intimate chat, and his guests did not hold back.

One of the topics on everyone’s mind is, of course, the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes, and Gowell gave the group a chance to say whatever they wanted to about it. Gooding, Chong, and Peck gave the floor to Mount to speak. Mount made it clear that we are all just at the beginning of this strike, suggesting that the AMPTP is a “clown car of divergent agendas” and they are all at war with each other. Further, what the AMPTP is selling as a tough stance is really an inability for them to come to the table with any kind of a coherent offer. He said, “This is the last point in time that we have to negotiate away from the robots taking over.”
*  *  *
The rules surrounding the strikes meant that the questions from the audience had to get creative, and we all got a chance to get to know the guests a little more as people. For instance, we learned that Mount doesn’t really cook much for himself except to roast some ducks over a campfire with his buddies and that Gooding is a “GrubHub girlie.” Chong, however, has a lovely recipe for a baked salmon that she serves with stir-fried vegetables or brown rice.

This is the first Dragon Con for Chong and Gooding, so one of the questions was regarding anything that might be on the guests’ Dragon Con bucket lists. Chong said that her bucket list item had already been ticked when she saw someone cosplaying in a Princess Thalia dress. Peck laughed and said that his bucket list item is to NOT get drunk at Dragon Con, while Gooding said that she would like to do the opposite. All that Mount wants is a fully staged production of “Subspace Rhapsody” (a recent musical episode of the “Wagon Train to the Stars”). Gowell extracted a pinky promise that if we managed to pull that off, Mount and friends would come back to Dragon Con.
*  *  *
Peck was also particularly excited to learn that Dragon Con has a Magic: The Gathering tournament since he plays MTG to relax. He said that if he finds the time he might have to school some Dragon Con attendees.

...
The Paramount+ show’s sophomore run was a crowd-pleasing affair that gave us a little bit of everything. From Una Chin-Riley’s thought-provoking ethics trial to that charming musical episode that had us singing its praises (and proved this cast has serious vocal chops) — and let’s not forget that bonkers crossover with the animated series Star Trek: Lower Decks — Season 2 took big creative swings that elevated the show to bold new heights and yet, never forgot its roots. — Keisha Hatchett

Paul Wesley (Star Trek: Strange New Worlds) won the Saturn Award for Best Guest Star in a Television Series...

Star Trek Wins Big At The 2024 Saturn Awards
BY MARK DONALDSON    FEBRUARY 5, 2024
https://screenrant.com/everything-star-trek-won-saturn-awards-2024/ 

Quote

Paul Wesley beat some stiff competition to win the Best Guest Star in a Television Series award for playing Lt. James T. Kirk in Star Trek: Strange New Worlds. Nick Offerman was nominated for his devastating performance in The Last of Us episode 3, while Amanda Plummer's performance as Star Trek: Picard villain Vadic was also nominated. It's not hard to see why Wesley was honored for his performance as Kirk in SNW, given that he's played two alternate-reality versions of the character as well as the Prime timeline version. Paul Wesley accepted his award from Star Trek: Lower Decks' Tawny Newsome and you can watch his acceptance speech below:

Jonathan Frakes on Directing ‘Star Trek’: Looking Back on ‘Discovery’ & Ahead to ‘Strange New Worlds’ Season 3
Meredith Jacobs   MAY 25, 2024,

What else is coming up for you? What else have you directed that’s still to come?

I just finished a fabulous episode of Strange New Worlds that we actually finished editing last week, so that’s for next season. And I’ve got a couple of pilots that I’m trying to get developed and up and out, and I’ve got my son’s wedding that we’re planning and I’ve got a whole pile of conventions to go to, and then I’ll look forward to Starfleet Academy, which is coming up in the fall.

You said Strange New Worlds. Anything you can say about that?

I can say that it is maybe the best episode of TV I’ve had the privilege of directing. The story, as you’ll see, ends up being a Hollywood murder mystery, and that’s about all I’m allowed to leak.

Unconfirmed...

Cillian O’Sullivan To Play Roger Korby in Strange New Worlds
Connor Schwigtenberg   July 17, 2024
https://trekcentral.net/cillian-osullivan-to-play-roger-korby-in-strange-new-worlds/ 

Quote

EXCLUSIVE: Another Star Trek legacy character is set to appear in Star Trek: Strange New Worlds Season 3. This is none other than Dr Roger Korby, who is set to be played by Irish-American actor Cillian O’Sullivan. The reveal of Korby’s appearance in Season 3 would be no surprise to anyone paying attention through Season 2. Dr. Korby, in particular, his future with Nurse Chapel (Jess Bush), was the focus of a major story arc.
*  *  *
While Korby’s casting is unofficial, we can now confidently say he’ll be played by Cillian O’Sullivan in the upcoming season. The actor’s presence in the season is confirmed by IMDB listings for a stunt coordinator responsible for doubling O’Sullivan across four episodes in Season 3. The team here at Trek Central also used a little social media sleuthing to ascertain that the actor’s role is set to be Roger Korby.

Not only is this a recurring role through about half of the season, but Korby seems set for some pretty cool stunt scenes as well. It’s nice that his role will be felt throughout the season, emphasizing the importance of his connection to Chapel’s story arc. Interestingly, this stunt coordinator isn’t listed until episode 2 of the season. So Chapel and Korby’s relationship may well play out on the Enterprise, complete with major Spock angst.

O’Sullivan even confirmed his own presence in Toronto, where Strange New Worlds is filmed. He posted photos and videos on his Instagram account, stating he’d been filming there for the last 5 months. You can see the post below that was posted on May 27, just days after series lead Anson Mount confirmed that the season had wrapped filming.
