We have a bunch of those as well as a big idea that emerged mid- to late-season one for something we want to do for season two. That&#8217;s now become the spine of what we want to do for season two. We have an emotional compass pointing toward a big idea for a second season. But given the scope of this thing, we&#8217;re also focused on finishing strong. Hopefully we&#8217;ll get an order for season two. I don&#8217;t know that we&#8217;ll have a tremendous amount of downtime between seasons. There have been many iterations of Trek that have run for a very long time. I only want to keep it going for as long as it feels fresh and like we have stories to tell. One of the great things about streaming is that we&#8217;re not obligated to twenty-two episodes, which allows us to tell more stories. So as long as we feel we are not compromising quality or scope, I&#8217;m down for whatever Trek becomes.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>If a second season is on the cards, when might that happen? &#8220;There have been preliminary conversations about when and how [a second season could air] and we&#8217;ve been very consistent in our message, which is that rather than announce a date and have to push again, let&#8217;s take into consideration everything we&#8217;ve learned from this season,&#8221; said Kurtzman. &#8220;Now we know what we can do and where the sand traps are, so let&#8217;s give ourselves ample time to announce a date that makes sense to everybody \u2014 both the needs of production and <em>CBS<\/em>. Breaking story is, in some ways, the easier and faster thing; it&#8217;s the ability to execute on it that&#8217;s much harder. We want to take the right amount of time and don&#8217;t want to rush.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>When asked for a potential date on which a second season of<em> Discovery<\/em> might air, Kurtzman said, &#8220;Ideally on the early side of 2019.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Star Trek: Discovery has only just begun airing but already there is talk of a&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":46887,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2413,8677],"tags":[2465],"class_list":["post-46886","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-cast-crew","category-star-trek-discovery","tag-kurtzman"],"featured_image_urls":{"full":["https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/DiscoveryCrew092617.jpg",580,225,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/DiscoveryCrew092617-150x150.jpg",150,150,true],"medium":["https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/DiscoveryCrew092617.jpg",580,225,false],"medium_large":["https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/DiscoveryCrew092617.jpg",580,225,false],"large":["https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/DiscoveryCrew092617.jpg",580,225,false],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/DiscoveryCrew092617.jpg",580,225,false],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/DiscoveryCrew092617.jpg",580,225,false],"newsphere-slider-full":["https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/DiscoveryCrew092617.jpg",580,225,false],"newsphere-featured":["https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/DiscoveryCrew092617.jpg",580,225,false],"newsphere-medium":["https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/DiscoveryCrew092617.jpg",580,225,false]},"author_info":{"display_name":"T&#39;Bonz","author_link":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/author\/tbonz\/"},"category_info":"<a href=\"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/categories\/cast-crew\/\" rel=\"category tag\">Cast &amp; Crew<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/categories\/star-trek-discovery\/\" rel=\"category tag\">Star Trek: Discovery<\/a>","tag_info":"Star Trek: Discovery","comment_count":"0","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/46886","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=46886"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/46886\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":46888,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/46886\/revisions\/46888"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/46887"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=46886"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=46886"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=46886"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
