Season 2 of Picard and Season 4 Discovery Connected?

ryuranger

I just watch Season 4 Trailer of Discovery and I come to thinking what if the two shows are some how Connected and how Q might actually is using this conflict as a Test for Picard to make things right in Season two to see that he still has his Space Boots and that the Anomaly happened in Early 21st Century that spand in to the future and some how the events in Discovery might collide the events with Picard in a strange way it might not be the Crossover we all be hoping for but what if this is a kind of story that both crews of the "Past(25th Century) and Future(32 Century)" has to solve to save the Universe

Sounds like a convoluted, overly complicated version of the All Good Things Anti-Time anomaly. Which makes no sense honestly because we saw that the timeline changed before Picard goes back to the 21st Century. The anomaly in the 32nd Century, as far as we know, is not temporal in nature.

Q may be taking advantage of paradox splits in the fabric of quantum time to run Picard around the maze one last time.

In fact, he might be there to relieve some of the stress from the Intrepid paradox, Burnham's domino search and possibly some other time travel incidents at an elegant and convenient node point in time, and being able to test Picard in the process could be gravy to spice up an otherwise dull task for him. I doubt if they are spinning it that way however, subtlety and intricately crafted plots are not Kurtzman's forte.

If CBS wanted to really draw in Trek fans and end the rift in the fanbase without losing the action movie fans who may still be hanging around they could use it to normalize things and retroactively broaden the setting shown in first season DSC to actually include updated Cage/TOS style content to set the stage for SNW instead of specifically exclude it the way DSC s1 tried to do. Alas, that is even less likely than the second point.

I am afraid that ship has sailed...you are not getting those massive numbers. Every attempt to announcement a film project, is to drum up potential investors...and mostly are staying away, for they see the fanbase divided and you cannot make money on that.

Which is exactly why healing the split in the fanbase is vital for the health of Star Trek as a whole. The problem is that the longer they ignore the problem the more set-in-stone the split becomes, and it may be too late to close it already in which case it is unlikely that Trek will ever regain the momentum it once had and those investors will keep staying away.

well, another reboot might do it, and get rid of kurtzman. Did they really think they were going to excite fans by destroying Vulcan? Gee, Star Trek has been using beams forever with the exception of TWOK, but sure lets go with the Star wars laser bolt spray and pray effect... and don't get me started on the abortion called the kelvin connie... they could easily have chosen one of the better TOS episodes, twisted it a bit and cleaned up the shots and had a hell of a good movie.

I really hope not. It made me so unhappy when they had the whole planet destruction reuse of footage in Picard, because I was fearful of a crossover.

The only crossover I ever hoped for was in DS9, with a mission into the Badlands to find Voyager...and then a lovely bit of interaction with the Maquis, who were searching for the Val Jean.

There would appear to be absolutely no relation between the two. And all the better for it, IMO.

There was the Birthright Part 1 episode from Season 6 of TNG that was the closest to a TNG/DS9 Crossover that we got. Although more accurately, it is a Data&La Forge/Bashir Crossover.

I don't think they ever did explain what that device was...and then of course, it wasn't that Data had reached a certain level of consciousness, it's just that his dreaming ability was switched on after being zapped by it.
