Strange New Worlds and the original Series , as things get referenced through out
where I've ether gone back and watch old original series episodes that tie into Strange New Worlds , or at least have had to click on Google.................lol
it's also has been , and will be fun , as they start to bring on more and of the original characters , like the last episode of season 2 we got introduced to Scotty
we already have Spock , Uhura and Nurse Chapple as regular members of the crew , we've been introduced to Lt James T Kirk , and his brother Sam in recurring rolls , Sam is stationed on the Enterprise while James is still stationed on the USS Farragut
we get introduced to Scotty in the last episode of season 2 , but I don't think he'll become the chief engineer of the Enterprise yet , but I do expect to see him in recurring roll throughout the season , similar to the the Kirk brothers
so we yet to meet Leonard McCoy , Sulu or Chekov , although Chekov never joined the Enterprise until season 2 of the original series , but they could still introduce Chekov , just stationed somewhere else for now , Kinda like what their doing with Kirk
Dr. Carol Marcus kinda got referenced in season 2 , so I'm kinda expecting her to show up in season 3 , but thats not a given ..............lol
