Hey #StarTrek folks, are you wondering what the upcoming new Starfleet Academy show will be like?
Knowing #TawnyNewsome is in the room, we know there will be someone writing who knows the franchise, knows about representation, and is genuinely funny.
We’ve also know that Noga Landau got good reviews and improved ratings when she took over as showrunner of #NancyDrew.
So, seeing reports that Gaia Violo wrote the pilot for the upcoming Starfleet Academy show, and will be a Co-Executive producer, I decided to check out her previous work on Absentia. She was the senior writer on the show, which has good professional reviews.
WOW! Violo is a great writer.
Absentia is a 3- season serialized thriller that I don’t recall being available in original release here in Canada. It’s on Amazon Prime video in 4k now, and from what I see they have the US and international licence for it now.
It’s about an FBI officer who went missing and was held as a prisoner for six years before being found in horrific circumstances after being presumed murdered. Any and all trigger warnings are warranted on this one, but if you’re someone who can be comfortable watching that, it’s a show to check out.
All to say that, as with #LowerDecks & #StarTrekProdigy, I suspect that fans are going to be surprised at what a strong show #StarfleetAcademy will be.
With Violo setting the stage with the pilot & Noga Landau as the EP Co-Showrunner, having been head writer on #TheMagicians for a season, I’m thinking that the Academy show may have more suspense and action than many anticipate.
