TREK IT OUT Edited by Thomas Reynolds Prodigy Pulls Some Great Cast Gets By Elio Lleo The newest iteration of Star Trek, Nickelodeon's animated series Prodigy, is making news this week with a couple of big announcements. First up: casting!  Two new actors have been added to the cast announcement with Jimi Simpson and John Noble both playing antagonist characters. According to Deadline's Alexandra Del Rosario, Noble (The Lord of the Rings, FRINGE) will voice the character known as The Diviner: “a ruthless tyrant who controls the asteroids of Tars Lampora…and will stop at nothing in his hunt for the Protostar ship, no matter the cost.” Simpson (It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, Westworld, Breakout Kings) voices Drednok, “the Diviner's deadly robotic enforcer…heartless and cold.” ...yeah, checks out.

Now, if talent isn't enough, then be sure to watch the main title sequence for the show–available now on YouTube and other Star Trek social media channels.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bm9Zv8D70hA Lining Up The Milestones By Rosco McQueen Panels, panels and more panels are coming your way for the Trek franchise's 55th anniversary.  On September 8, the Star Trek Day celebrations will be hosted by The Next Generation's Wil Wheaton and actress and host Mica Burton.

STAR TREK GAMING NEWS Edited by Thomas Reynolds Time Is On Our Side By Cat Hough Well, the time has come at last [again–Ed.]! Star Trek Online announced the Temporal Recruitment Event returns on all platforms, just in time to celebrate Star Trek Day on September 8th. Since we're playing through the Original Series-era content for this event, the devs have gone through and made some visual updates and updated cutscenes as well as improving the missions themselves. Plus, Temporal Agent goals have been updated to include some new ones, and removed some goals from missions that are no longer in the game, so you don't have to worry about finding Temporal Probes in places that you can no longer reach. You'll be able to earn bonuses for reaching level 60, marks for all of the reputations that have been added to the game, and rewards for engaging in R&D and specializations. Existing Temporal Agents will be able to complete these new goals as well, and if you've already finished them, you can claim the rewards immediately. Tell me they changed the prefix code, at least. Image: Cryptic Studios. Remember, to become a Temporal Agent and gain access to the rewards, you must make a new TOS Starfleet character, during the event, then you must play the tutorial until you receive your special Temporal Agent transceiver device. Once you receive the device, your character is a Temporal Agent and you can complete the goals any time and claim the rewards, even after the event ends. Good Old (Star Trek) Games Coming To Good Old Games (Galaxy) By Rosco McQueen Do you pine for the days when Star Trek games weren't vast, expansive, massively multiplayer worlds?  Maybe you're more of a LAN party player (as long as some else brings the snacks)? A number of classic Trek games, including Star Trek Armada 1 & Armada 2, Star Trek Bridge Commander, and Star Trek Voyager: Elite Force and Elite Force 2 could be due for re-release on GOG Galaxy. Gamefront reports the game cards for titles on the platform recently being updated with new CBS copyright watermarks. Start a Star Trek Game Night for your retirement home today!

Dancing Data in Fleet Command By Rosco McQueen Star Trek Fleet Command just dropped a new teaser featuring Brent Spiner loosening up for co-star LeVar Burton after playing “an emotionless android for years.” [same–Ed.] This continues Fleet Command's ongoing efforts to bring in Trek celebrities for their promotions: earlier this year they had Sonequa Martin-Green and Karl Urban. Recent promos have leaned into TNG to showcase the latest updates to the game; in addition to Spiner and Burton, Jonathan Frakes also shows up in the promo.

This week on Episode 477 of Priority One --- We ‘Trek Out’ STAR TREK DAY. More specifically, we dive deep into the Discovery, Picard, Lower Decks, and Strange New Worlds panels and discuss what was discussed during their discussions! In Star Trek gaming, Scopely indulges in shrooms and Timeline celebrates Star Trek Day with Giveaways - and takeaways! Of course, as always, before we wrap up the show, we’ll open hailing frequencies for your incoming messages Let us know on social media like Facebook, Twitter, or by visiting our website! This Weeks Community Question Is: CQ: How did you celebrate the first OFFICIAL Star Trek Day? AND CQ: If you’re not currently playing Fleet Command, does new Prime Timeline content make you more likely to pick it up? TREK IT OUT by Jake Morgan Star Trek Day Star Trek fans are, sometimes,  a bit entitled - and at Priority One we’d argue rightly so. Star Trek’s original series received a third season - and a ticket to syndication - because of a write-in campaign led by the incomparable superfans Bjo and John Trimble. Star Trek fans helped start the modern-day Mega-Convention when, in 1972, over 3000 Trekkies gathered at the Manhattan Hilton Hotel in New York City to celebrate our beloved franchise. We passed content droughts by writing fan-fiction and creating fan-zines - the precursor to the modern day internet fan-sites. Our unequaled enthusiasm helped spawn an animated series, a movie series, television spin-offs, more movie series, and even helped launch a network - UPN - and a streaming platform - CBS All Access. That’s not even mentioning the countless hours of reading, listening, and viewing content the community has generated - for absolutely free. We’ve even celebrated a couple of unofficial holidays. June 16th has long been recognized as Captain Picard Day - thanks to its appearance in the NextGen episode “The Pegasus”. And September 8th’s air date of Star Trek's first episode, “The Man Trap” - has been our unofficial Star Trek Day This year, the newly reunited ViacomCBS seemed to validate and recognize its fans by acknowledging September 8th, the most holy of Star Trek days - an OFFICIAL Star Trek Day! The day was spent streaming Star Trek - episodes, panels, and discussions - to celebrate the franchise. But it wasn’t PURELY a corporate advertisement. It celebrated the heart of the IP by once again instituting the StarTrekUnitedGives hashtag on its social media platforms. For every #StarTrekUnitedGives ViacomCBS received, the company would donate One US dollar to “Charities that champion equality, social justice, and the pursuit of scientific advancements”. This week we’re going to cover the virtual panels of the newest Star Trek series - Discovery, Picard, Lower Decks, and the upcoming Strange New Worlds. But first we want to know “Star Trek: Discovery” Panel Following a streaming schedule that featured episodes from the entire Star Trek catalogue, the team turned its focus to pre-recorded panels and interviews - and the first on the docket was “Star Trek: Discovery”. The panel was introduced by series lead Sonequa Martin-Green - who presented Discovery’s official Season 3 trailer - before handing the reins to host Mica Burton. Burton moderated a panel that featured Star Trek boss Alex Kurtzman, Discovery Show runner Michelle Paradise, and series new-comer David Ajala. A central point of the panel - and frankly the whole day - was hope in a time of despair. Alex Kurtzman discussed the state of the federation nearly 1000 years in Discovery’s future, and how Star Trek’s message today jives with Gene Roddenberry’s message from 1966. The team also discussed WHY the federation wasn’t in the position of power that Discovery had left it in the 23th century. In the trailer, “Book” - played by panel attendee and Star Trek newcomer David Ajala - notes that Starfleet suffered a decline during a period called “the burn”. Kurtzman explained its effect on the current state of the Federation https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TASfgIN4ZXA Discovery Introduces Star Trek’s FIRST Non-Binary and Trans Leads! This week, news broke that Star Trek was FINALLY introducing BOTH a Trans AND Non-Binary Character to the main cast of Discovery.  Trek’s first non-Binary character - portrayed by Blu del Barrio - spoke with glaad.org about the role, saying ”When we meet Adira, they're suffering from memory loss. They remember nothing from their past, and very little about themself. They know they're non-binary, of course, but coming onto Discovery they're cautious about sharing that information with anyone. They're a private person, so they aren't going to divulge a lot about themselves to a ship full of strangers. It's not until Adira has found a place of comfort with Stamets and Culber that they feel they can talk about who they are.” Regarding the upcoming Trans character, Deadline reported “Ian Alexander will play the transgender character Gray, empathetic, warm and eager to fulfill his lifelong dream of being a Trill host, but he will have to adapt when his life takes an unexpected turn.” Photo Courtesy of Deadline Both characters were under TIGHT wraps during the panel, but Michelle Paradise was able to give a small bit of information regarding their roles! The panel is CHOCK FULL of great information - like why Discovery has a new Logo. Trek out the hope-filled trailer and hope-ier panel interview by heading to priorityonepodcast.com “Strange New Worlds” Panel We’re going to skip over a few panels this week and cover the “new” stuff coming down the...PIKE... Sorry We’d certainly suggest you trek out EVERYTHING offered on September 8th, but since OUR time is limited, we’re going to skip ahead to the history, and see what the “Strange New Worlds” crew had to say about the upcoming show and Star Trek’s future’s past! Mica Burton once again moderated the panel, this time with series leads Anson Mount, Rebecca Romijn, and Ethan Peck as well as series EP’s Akiva Goldsman and Henry Alonso Myers and writers Akela Cooper and Davy Perez. After some really interesting - and fun - anecdotes about how the show came to be, Series EP Henry Alonso Meyer discussed the format of the series.  Davy Perez reinforced the “morals, messages, and meanings” of Star Trek’s storytelling in regards to “Strange New Worlds”. We may want to put that info into the “Mission Log”? Do not skip watching the full panel. Anson Mount recalling his conversation with an apple-eating-Alex-Kurtzman is worth the price of admission. We’ll embed the video on our website, so be sure to head over and trek it out!  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kY4RvbEGLFE “Star Trek: Picard” and “Star Trek: Lower Decks” Panels Star Trek: Picard’s panel was moderated by Wil Wheaton, starred Sir Patrick Stewart and Jonathan Frakes, and was titled “Picard & The Next Generation Panel”. So if you’re thinking “the news might not be groundbreaking”, you’re probably pretty perceptive. BUT that’s not to say Sir Patrick didn’t deliver. When asked about what’s to come, Stewart unleashed some pure hype. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0sSPajpSRiM Where things got interesting was the “Lower Decks” panel. Yes - we’re half-way through the season. But that doesn’t mean there isn’t more story to tell. Prior to releasing the mid-season teaser, showrunner Mike McMahon spilled some Trek-nuggets ripe for the dunking. The “Midseason” trailer shows the aforementioned “legacy actor”, and offers a look at the back nine of Star Trek’s newest animated offering.We’ll, of course, have a link in our show notes, so be sure to trek out both panels. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4jRSC8_lNCs Star Trek Gaming News by Shane Hoover and Thomas Reynolds Star Trek Fleet Command Hits The Space Shrooms Consider the following scenario: you have a successful Star Trek-themed mobile game set entirely in the Kelvin Timeline. You want to add content from Discovery (whose third season starts this October), but your game is Kelvin Timeline-only. And to not be Kelvin Timeline-only, you have to add that content from Discovery. That, captains, is called a Patch-22. Now we know 2020 has been...a bit much. Believe it or not, it’s only been two weeks since ViacomCBS gave Fleet Command developer Scopely free reign of the franchise’s TV and film content, and we weren’t expecting anything to follow so soon. Surprise! Fleet Command Patch 22, which Scopely announced on September 8th, will begin the game’s first Prime Timeline story arc in the era of Discovery. Michael Burnham, Stamets, Saru, and the NCC-1031 itself join Fleet Command’s playable roster, with new random Anomalies and story missions available through a Disco-specific Battle Pass. The patch will also improve the user interface for Battle Report storage and guarantees an Exchange Armada spawn rate in all Exchange systems. Star Trek Timelines Giveaways and Takeaways Fleet Command isn’t the only Trek game getting in on the Star Trek Day festivities. Until September 15th, Star Trek Timelines is bringing back player-favorite temporary achievements for increased grind rewards. However these achievements now have tiers, so the more tasks you complete, the more dilithium and premiums you earn. The Timelines team also put together a special version of their biweekly in-game care package, and took the time to share their thoughts on what working with the Star Trek property means to them. For Timelines Communications Lead Shan, Star Trek represents hope. Hope for a better world, a better future - one we can all have a hand in creating.

This week on Episode 477 of Priority One --- We ‘Trek Out' STAR TREK DAY. More specifically, we dive deep into the Discovery, Picard, Lower Decks, and Strange New Worlds panels and discuss what was discussed during their discussions! In Star Trek gaming, Scopely indulges in shrooms and Timeline celebrates Star Trek Day with Giveaways - and takeaways! Of course, as always, before we wrap up the show, we'll open hailing frequencies for your incoming messages Let us know on social media like Facebook, Twitter, or by visiting our website! This Weeks Community Question Is: CQ: How did you celebrate the first OFFICIAL Star Trek Day? AND CQ: If you're not currently playing Fleet Command, does new Prime Timeline content make you more likely to pick it up? TREK IT OUT by Jake Morgan Star Trek Day Star Trek fans are, sometimes,  a bit entitled - and at Priority One we'd argue rightly so. Star Trek's original series received a third season - and a ticket to syndication - because of a write-in campaign led by the incomparable superfans Bjo and John Trimble. Star Trek fans helped start the modern-day Mega-Convention when, in 1972, over 3000 Trekkies gathered at the Manhattan Hilton Hotel in New York City to celebrate our beloved franchise. We passed content droughts by writing fan-fiction and creating fan-zines - the precursor to the modern day internet fan-sites. Our unequaled enthusiasm helped spawn an animated series, a movie series, television spin-offs, more movie series, and even helped launch a network - UPN - and a streaming platform - CBS All Access. That's not even mentioning the countless hours of reading, listening, and viewing content the community has generated - for absolutely free. We've even celebrated a couple of unofficial holidays. June 16th has long been recognized as Captain Picard Day - thanks to its appearance in the NextGen episode “The Pegasus”. And September 8th's air date of Star Trek's first episode, “The Man Trap” - has been our unofficial Star Trek Day This year, the newly reunited ViacomCBS seemed to validate and recognize its fans by acknowledging September 8th, the most holy of Star Trek days - an OFFICIAL Star Trek Day! The day was spent streaming Star Trek - episodes, panels, and discussions - to celebrate the franchise. But it wasn't PURELY a corporate advertisement. It celebrated the heart of the IP by once again instituting the StarTrekUnitedGives hashtag on its social media platforms. For every #StarTrekUnitedGives ViacomCBS received, the company would donate One US dollar to “Charities that champion equality, social justice, and the pursuit of scientific advancements”. This week we're going to cover the virtual panels of the newest Star Trek series - Discovery, Picard, Lower Decks, and the upcoming Strange New Worlds. But first we want to know “Star Trek: Discovery” Panel Following a streaming schedule that featured episodes from the entire Star Trek catalogue, the team turned its focus to pre-recorded panels and interviews - and the first on the docket was “Star Trek: Discovery”. The panel was introduced by series lead Sonequa Martin-Green - who presented Discovery's official Season 3 trailer - before handing the reins to host Mica Burton. Burton moderated a panel that featured Star Trek boss Alex Kurtzman, Discovery Show runner Michelle Paradise, and series new-comer David Ajala. A central point of the panel - and frankly the whole day - was hope in a time of despair. Alex Kurtzman discussed the state of the federation nearly 1000 years in Discovery's future, and how Star Trek's message today jives with Gene Roddenberry's message from 1966. The team also discussed WHY the federation wasn't in the position of power that Discovery had left it in the 23th century. In the trailer, “Book” - played by panel attendee and Star Trek newcomer David Ajala - notes that Starfleet suffered a decline during a period called “the burn”. Kurtzman explained its effect on the current state of the Federation https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TASfgIN4ZXA Discovery Introduces Star Trek's FIRST Non-Binary and Trans Leads! This week, news broke that Star Trek was FINALLY introducing BOTH a Trans AND Non-Binary Character to the main cast of Discovery.  Trek's first non-Binary character - portrayed by Blu del Barrio - spoke with glaad.org about the role, saying ”When we meet Adira, they're suffering from memory loss. They remember nothing from their past, and very little about themself. They know they're non-binary, of course, but coming onto Discovery they're cautious about sharing that information with anyone. They're a private person, so they aren't going to divulge a lot about themselves to a ship full of strangers. It's not until Adira has found a place of comfort with Stamets and Culber that they feel they can talk about who they are.” Regarding the upcoming Trans character, Deadline reported “Ian Alexander will play the transgender character Gray, empathetic, warm and eager to fulfill his lifelong dream of being a Trill host, but he will have to adapt when his life takes an unexpected turn.” Photo Courtesy of Deadline Both characters were under TIGHT wraps during the panel, but Michelle Paradise was able to give a small bit of information regarding their roles! The panel is CHOCK FULL of great information - like why Discovery has a new Logo. Trek out the hope-filled trailer and hope-ier panel interview by heading to priorityonepodcast.com “Strange New Worlds” Panel We're going to skip over a few panels this week and cover the “new” stuff coming down the...PIKE... Sorry We'd certainly suggest you trek out EVERYTHING offered on September 8th, but since OUR time is limited, we're going to skip ahead to the history, and see what the “Strange New Worlds” crew had to say about the upcoming show and Star Trek's future's past! Mica Burton once again moderated the panel, this time with series leads Anson Mount, Rebecca Romijn, and Ethan Peck as well as series EP's Akiva Goldsman and Henry Alonso Myers and writers Akela Cooper and Davy Perez. After some really interesting - and fun - anecdotes about how the show came to be, Series EP Henry Alonso Meyer discussed the format of the series.  Davy Perez reinforced the “morals, messages, and meanings” of Star Trek's storytelling in regards to “Strange New Worlds”.
