[QUOTE]Originally posted by Lee: [QB] The thing is, we don't know what DSC was meant to be. Bryan Fuller was the driving force in its original conception, and he left before an episode even aired. The official line for that continues to be because of his commitments to American Gods (which he then had to leave because of his commitments to Amazing Stories ffs) whereas the line continually trotted out by all the YouTubing Doomsayers is that Les Moonves canned him because Fuller wanted a more retro look than we got. [i]I've recently learned that initially there was a whole different uniform planned, using the primary colours, which was a bit of a hybrid of the classic TOS look and the TOS pilots uniforms. I wonder how closely they resembled the Discoprise uniforms?[/i] So we don't know if the plan was always to go to the future - in which case, why take two seasons to do so? It does strike me as an interesting choice - if they'd started with a post-VOY set-up then sent them to the future, it might have been regarded as a cop-out (plus we know now that the post-VOY Federation isn't a nice place to begin with; sending a crew from a time when the UFP was new and bright to a time when it';s a distant tarnished memory opens up all sorts of possibilities. Basically at this stage I'm not going to worry about it. It's a done deal, whayever the Fuller Discovery was going to be is mooot. Let's see whether taking the show into truly unknown territory becomes the making of it. [/QB][/QUOTE]
