The announcements were made during today's STAR TREK universe presentation in Hall H at Comic-Con(R) International in San Diego, CA. The STAR TREK: STARFLEET ACADEMY panel portion featured an exclusive conversation with executive producers and co-showrunners Alex Kurtzman and Noga Landau, as well as series star Holly Hunter, plus cadets Sandro Rosta, Karim Diané, Kerrice Brooks, George Hawkins, and Bella Shepard. Fellow series cast member and STAR TREK legend Robert Picardo moderated the panel.
STAR TREK: STARFLEET ACADEMY introduces viewers to a young group of cadets who come together to pursue a common dream of hope and optimism. Under the watchful and demanding eyes of their instructors, they discover what it takes to become Starfleet officers as they navigate blossoming friendships, explosive rivalries, first loves, and a new enemy that threatens both the Academy and the Federation itself.
Alex Kurtzman and Noga Landau serve as co-showrunners, and the series is executive produced alongside Gaia Violo, Aaron Baiers, Olatunde Osunsanmi, Jenny Lumet, Rod Roddenberry, Trevor Roth, Frank Siracusa, and John Weber. The series' premiere episode is written by Gaia Violo and directed by Alex Kurtzman. STAR TREK: STARFLEET ACADEMY is produced by CBS Studios in association with Secret Hideout and Roddenberry Entertainment. Paramount Global Content Distribution distributes the series.
Good riddance to Bad Robot, and I hope Kurtzmann never works again in sci-fi. Give the showrunner job to Matalas who has proven with Picard S3 he can write good stuff.
Good riddance is right. Nepo Baby Productions managed to crater Star Wars, Star Trek and deliver the worst Mission: Impossible film. Abrams is a TV director with no imagination outside of his influences. Now his Lost co-creator is facing backlash before Green-less Lanterns even airs.
They filmed seasons 1 and 2 back to back so this is not a surprise. The surprise is that they arent shelving season 2 for the write-off to offset their WBD purchase.
Discovery and Lower Decks and Strange New Worlds were terrible too, but somehow, Kurtzmann has outdone himself and made the worst Trek show possible, where not only nothing happens, it happens all at the same bloody location too. How each episode cost 10$ million to make, I will never know, since the big name actors like Giamatti only appears 3 times in the show.
Good riddance to Bad Robot, and I hope Kurtzmann never works again in sci-fi. Give the showrunner job to Matalas who has proven with Picard S3 he can write good stuff.

like I mean we didn't need mutlitple star trek shows happening all at the same time.......so not a surprised something lost the battle.
we don't need 45 Star Trek shows at once...like who would have thought that was a thing anyone really needed, calm yourself...one is enough.
"hey have you met my 19 dogs" ...one of them is getting fed less.
Actually this is the last Trek show that'll be running, Strange New World ends this year. Nothing else is planned at the moment. I hope they reboot the franchise and ignore everything Nu-Trek. They could go back and continue from after Voyager. No more prequels please, that only ruins the timeline.

Surprised it got a 2nd season
It didn't. This was not renewed AFTER it aired and people saw it was great (because it was terrible), this was a situation like Velma was, that it got renewed for a second season even from the get-go, before it even aired.
