So apparently this is from the guy who did the “Too Many Cooks” special, which is kinda awesomely weird. It will be interesting to watch!

Neat!
I am a bit disappointed that these are going to be explicitly non-canon, though.
ValueSubtracted@startrek.website 9 months ago
I refuse to accept that, and will only ever refer to the very Short Treks when debating the finer points of Star Trek.

I’m tempted to go back to Reddit just to make a nitpicky Redditor’s head explode with this:

I expect that the Very Short Treks won’t be entirely non-canon. For instance, some episode might introduce an event, place, or technology that is actually canon even if the events of the episode itself are not canon.
Alternatively, they could be loosely canon in the same way as the Lego Star Wars shows/games, with the rough events and plots being canon even if exact details are not.

I mean someone will create one anyway I think so why not have a pinned one?
ValueSubtracted@startrek.website 9 months ago
Yeah, I came to the same conclusion pretty quickly - hence the deletion!
ValueSubtracted@startrek.website 9 months ago
There are a couple of nice surprises on that list.

Trip Tucker is definitely the one that shocked me the most. It’s nice to see Enterprise getting more love lately with the Archer Spacedock in Discovery and the references in Strange New Worlds. Bring back the crew. I wanna know what happened to Porthos. They found a way to make him live forever, right?
Right?

I actually liked Enterprise, sloppy Temporal Cold War part aside. Even the Xindi arc redeemed itself eventually and the show was taking off after that.
I even liked the opening song. Fight me. picard-direct-action
