To be honest, I&#8217;ve been a &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/tvmeg.com\/index.php\/primetime\/startrek\/\">Star Trek<\/a>&#8221; fan since I was a little girl in the 60&#8217;s, and I love the entire franchise, but this is the only current Trek show, as well as arguably the most popular one in a long time.\u00a0 Unfortunately, star Anson Mount (Pike) had a personal emergency, so we didn&#8217;t get to speak to him. I think Christina Chong (La&#8217;an) was also called away (both were originally listed for the press day).\u00a0 Still, it was great to speak to the wonderful actors on this show who play Number One, Christine Chapel, Scotty, Uhura, Dr. M&#8217;Benga, and Erica Ortegas. This was a roundtable, and there were quite a few journalists there. You&#8217;ll hear many voices on the interview, asking the stars questions. I hope you enjoy it, and the upcoming season, which begins July 17 on Paramount+.
