Section 31 Will Shake Up Star Trek’s Status Quo, and That’s Exactly What The Franchise Needs
When Star Trek: Discovery debuted in 2017 on Paramount’s streaming service (then called CBS All Access), the legendary Michelle Yeoh played a key role. A year later, news broke that Paramount wanted her character, Philippa Georgiou, for a spinoff series. Star Trek: Section 31 is the result of that effort, but in the six years since it was first imagined, much has changed.
Michelle Yeoh became an Oscar winner for Everything, Everywhere All At Once. Discovery continued for four more seasons, ending its five-year mission in 2024. Numerous other series, from the animated Lower Decks (also now ended) to Discovery spinoff Strange New Worlds and the forthcoming Starfleet Academy joined the ranks. The biggest change, however, is it’s no longer a series, but rather a standalone film. The only thing that remains unchanged, however, is that Section 31 was to be unlike any Star Trek before it.
Star Trek: Discovery Faced Backlash from Fans for Its Differences
This Is Not Unique to the Series, but Social Media Amplified It
Despite critical praise, Discovery immediately faced backlash from Star Trek fans upon its release. This should not have been a surprise, since such a reaction fits a long-time pattern dating back to the 1970s. What was unique, however, was the advent of social media, YouTube and a cottage industry of content creators who stoke bad faith critique and a sense of entitlement felt by long-time fans of these generational universes.
Ironically, Star Trek: Discovery emulated Gene Roddenberry’s approach to creating the first live-action sequel, Star Trek: The Next Generation. He realized for The Next Generation to work, it needed to look and feel drastically different from Star Trek: The Original Series. This meant everything from production design to the way stories were told had to feel unique. Even the ethos and tone of the show changed, becoming more evolved and “perfect” in the next century. Yet, the show still needed to have the “DNA” as its predecessor. Discovery did this, too, though as a prequel to The Original Series, the characters and tone were less perfect than The Next Generation’s.

Star Trek: Section 31 Stars Tease Their Characters and Praise Co-Star Michelle Yeoh
EXCLUSIVE: The director and stars of Star Trek: Section 31 speak about the upcoming film at New York Comic Con.
While there remains plenty of bad-faith hate aimed at the series, many long-time fans had legitimate complaints. From the war with the Klingons to the behavior of Jason Isaac’s Captain Lorca, things felt “off.” It wasn’t until the connection to the Mirror Universe was revealed that it all began to make sense. The popular alternate timeline also brought Yeoh back as Empress Philippa Georgiou, the cruel tyrant who ruled Star Trek‘s evil universe. This is the character who appears in Section 31.
Section 31 Will Not Be a Traditional Star Trek Story, Nor Should It Be
In Its Sixth Decade, Gene Roddenberry’s Universe Must Evolve to Continue
Georgiou’s past as a xenophobic despot is not the main reason the film is even more of a departure from traditional Star Trek. After all, over three seasons on Discovery, her character evolved, softening in some ways and retaining hard edges in others. Fans’ first look at Section 31 in the official trailer sent a clear signal that this film was going places the universe never traversed before. In fact, it’s a corner of the galaxy where the beloved Federation isn’t present at all.
“I’m terrified of how it’s going to be received because it’s not the Trek people want. The Trek that people want, the Trek that we all want, is just 1,000 more episodes of TNG.” — Robert Kazinsky in an interview.
Introduced in Star Trek: Deep Space Nine and expanded upon in Star Trek: Enterprise, Section 31 is a black ops division of Starfleet. Their mandate is to protect the Federation and the galaxy, which feels like a very traditional Star Trek idea. However, the way they go about it is not, with the clandestine organization often behaving more like villains than idyllic heroes. The genesis of this story came from Michelle Yeoh herself, and the project “fell apart” more than once.

Star Trek’s Section 31 Is a Test Case for the Future of the Franchise
As Star Trek: Section 31 went from spinoff series to feature film, the Michelle Yeoh-led project is a test case for the future of the franchise.
Despite setbacks, Yeoh remained “completely committed” and her Oscar win likely saved the project. Already a legend, her Academy Award clout even further strengthened the willingness to take a risk with the film. Instead of seeing familiar heroic archetypes on a Starfleet vessel, Section 31 will introduce a group of galactic creeps in a brand-new region of the galaxy. Still, no matter how different the film will be, they band together as a crew to save lives and protect the Federation. It doesn’t get more “Star Trek” than that.
Star Trek Always Ages Well as Controversial Entries Become Classics
Tonal Shifts and Design Changes Eventually Feel Like They’ve Always Been There
Image via Paramount In the 1970s, Trekkies actually picketed the network that canceled The Original Series for more episodes. When NBC ordered Star Trek: The Animated Series, these same fans revolted and picketed to have them cancel it. Yet, the Filmation series remains the only Star Trek show to win an Emmy for the substance of its storytelling and not visual effects or makeup. Similarly, The Next Generation was derided in fanzines and at conventions, but at least the fans showed up to make the sequel a ratings hit for every network that picked up the show.
After Roddenberry’s death, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine was created, and the cycle began again. Fans complained about the design of the Cardassian space station, the dubious morality of the characters and the dark tone of its stories. Star Trek: Voyager was also criticized, and Star Trek: Enterprise after it. However, once Paramount canceled Star Trek in 2005, fans realized how good they had it. In syndication and, later, streaming, new and old viewers fell in love with these now-classic series.

Contrary to Fan Opinion, This Lower Decks Joke Did Not Actually Break Star Trek Canon
Star Trek: Lower Decks included a joke in the series finale that caused some fans to question Discovery’s place in the Prime Universe’s canon.
The smart gold-pressed latinum says that, eventually, Discovery will get credit for saving Star Trek as time goes on. Critical fans may soften their opinions, especially since shows like Star Trek: Strange New Worlds and Star Trek: Prodigy feel more traditional. Yet, these series bring in a new generation of fans for whom The Next Generation era and the third wave were “always Star Trek.” That cycle ensures Roddenberry’s universe lasts another 60 years. Stories like Section 31 are necessary.
Despite Its Differences, Section 31 Will Still Fit Into the Larger Saga
Risk Is Star Trek’s Business, and Section 31 Will Take Big Ones
Image via Paramount The 21st Century has made the universe stronger than ever before. In fact, the old Paramount regime couldn’t afford to keep up with the demand for new Star Trek series. While Yeoh may be even more in-demand as an actor, Section 31 more likely became a movie because it’s all the beleaguered studio could afford. It’s a blessing in disguise. Section 31 will need to tell a tight story, meaning it will get to the hopeful, aspirational part of the narrative sooner than Discovery did. Rather than being forced to sustain tension for ten episodes, it could leave fans wanting more.
Paramount studios was in dire financial straits, specifically because of major box office losses and is in the process of being “sold” to SkyDance Media.
Section 31 director Olatunde Osunsami seems to agree, wanting more Star Trek movies like this. It’s also good for business, since rather than investing in an entire season, Paramount can allow filmmakers to take risks, develop new characters and introduce new parts of the galaxy. Similarly, those not already fans of the universe are more likely to commit to a single film rather than invest in a full series right away.

Lower Decks’ Tawny Newsome Shares New Update on Her Live-Action Star Trek Workplace Comedy Series
The plans for the live-action Star Trek workplace comedy may be changing since it was first announced this summer.
Left wanting more, they will turn to Discovery and then other shows and films until they’ve been assimilated as a full-on Star Trek fan. Beyond further building out the universe, Section 31 challenges fans’ assumptions about what kind of stories this universe can and should tell. It can definitely take a group of scoundrels and turn them into heroes, as Deep Space Nine already proved. There will be an outcry from fans shocked at how different Section 31 is from what they already know. Yet, that’s the magic trick this universe constantly pulls.
Star Trek: Section 31 will debut on Paramount+ on January 24, 2025, and Strange New Worlds Season 3 is expected to debut sometime in 2025.

As a longtime fan of Star Trek, I have always been intrigued by the mysterious and secretive organization known as Section 31. This covert group operates outside the bounds of Starfleet regulations, using any means necessary to protect the interests of the Federation. And now, with the upcoming release of the new series, “Star Trek: Section 31,” I can’t help but feel excited about the potential impact it will have on the franchise.For too long, Star Trek has been criticized for being too formulaic and predictable. While the series has always explored important themes and moral dilemmas, it often followed a familiar pattern of exploration, conflict, and resolution. But with Section 31 entering the scene, that could all change.
Section 31 brings a new level of complexity and intrigue to the Star Trek universe. With their shady dealings and questionable ethics, they challenge the very ideals that Starfleet stands for. By shining a light on this dark underbelly of the Federation, the show has the potential to explore themes of power, corruption, and morality in a way that we haven’t seen before.
But perhaps most importantly, Section 31 will shake up the status quo of Star Trek. By introducing a new perspective and a new set of characters, the series has the opportunity to push the boundaries of what we expect from the franchise. It will force us to question our assumptions and challenge our beliefs, all while delivering the kind of thrilling storytelling that we’ve come to love from Star Trek.
In short, Section 31 is exactly what Star Trek needs right now. It’s a bold and daring move that has the potential to breathe new life into the franchise and capture the imaginations of fans old and new. So buckle up, because things are about to get a lot more interesting in the world of Star Trek.

A video showing the husband of a Republican senator refusing to shake Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris‘ hand took off online Monday, after the awkward moment in the Senate on Friday.
The clip, showing Senator Deb Fischer’s husband Bruce turning down Harris’ offer, was shared on X, formerly Twitter, by political commentator Brian Tyler Cohen, who said it showed “the level of class you can expect from MAGA”.
Newsweek reached out to Senator Fischer’s office via voicemail and the White House via email for comment Monday afternoon.
Why It Matters
Bruce Fischer accompanied his wife, first elected as a Senator for Nebraska in 2012, to the ceremony in Washington, D.C., on Friday and his refusal to shake hands with the vice president clearly surprised her as she oversaw the event, marking the beginning of the 119th Congress.
Fischer, 73, has met or interacted with Harris multiple times over the past four years, with the latter’s role as a tie-breaker in votes in the chamber.

What To Know
The video showed the Senator with one hand raised, the other on a Bible held by her husband, as she finished her pledge to serve the people of Nebraska once more.
Harris then shook her hand, saying, “Congratulations. Thank you for your work”. Turning to Bruce, Harris said: “May I give congratulations to you?” while holding out her hand. He simply said, “Thank you”, but did not accept the handshake.

Harris visibly raised her eyebrows and grimaced as the group then turned forward for a photo, in which Bruce did not smile. Cohen’s sharing of the video Monday then sparked a reaction, with followers saying Bruce had not been taught manners or was showing the GOP’s true colors.
A video of the same ceremony following 2016’s election, when Vice President Mike Pence was overseeing the event, showed Bruce shaking the Republican’s hand.
Some followers pointed out that he had not relied on a cane at that time.
UPDATE: After some digging, I finally found the video from six years ago of Senator Fischer being sworn in by Mike Pence, with her husband by her side. To my expectations, after the oath, her husband gleefully shook Pence’s hand and thanked him for his leadership. Before they… https://t.co/Tz02HDSNcW pic.twitter.com/MnevNeaeeP
— Chris D. Jackson (@ChrisDJackson) January 7, 2025
Harris’s job, as vice president, is to oversee the swearing-in of all new and re-elected Senators following an election on January 3. During Friday’s event, she had conversations with Senators on both sides of the aisle, including quipping to Vermont Independent Bernie Sanders about where he should stand.
“Stand right here. Although that is not your nature, to just stand where you’re told to stand, but give it a try,” she told him, prompting a soft laugh from the long-time lawmaker.
What People Are Saying
Senator Fischer, in a press release: “I’m humbled by the faith and trust Nebraskans have placed in me as I take this oath for the third time. I will not break that trust, and I will not betray that faith. I ask for your prayers for wisdom and strength that I may know and follow God’s guidance as I continue to serve the people and the state I love.”
Republicans Against Trump, on X: “GOP Senator Deb Fischer’s husband, Bruce, refuses to shake Vice President Kamala Harris’s hand after her swearing-in. Truly classless.”
Princella D. Smith, a filmmaker who shared the video on X: “Bruce Fischer is exactly what is wrong with American culture right now. We have put civility on the shelf.”
What’s Next
Senator Fischer now resumes her work on behalf of Nebraskans, promising she will “build a stronger Nebraska” alongside her constituents, as she shared a photo taken just after her husband’s interaction with the vice president.
Update: 1/7/25, 12:21 p.m. ET: This article has been updated with more information.
In a recent viral video, Senator Deb Fischer’s husband gained attention for refusing to shake Vice President Kamala Harris’ hand at a public event. The clip, which quickly spread across social media platforms, shows Harris extending her hand to Fischer’s husband as she greets attendees, only to have him ignore her gesture and walk away.The incident sparked a heated debate online, with many criticizing Fischer’s husband for his apparent disrespect towards the Vice President. Some viewed his actions as a deliberate snub, while others argued that he may have simply missed the handshake due to the chaotic nature of the event.
Senator Fischer has since issued a statement addressing the incident, expressing regret over her husband’s behavior and emphasizing her commitment to civility and respect in political discourse. However, the video continues to generate controversy and discussion, shedding light on the ongoing tensions and divisions in American politics.
As the video continues to circulate online, it serves as a reminder of the importance of mutual respect and courtesy in public interactions, especially when it comes to engaging with elected officials and political figures. Regardless of one’s personal beliefs or affiliations, maintaining a sense of decorum and civility is crucial in fostering a healthy and productive political environment.

Note: Map shows the area with a shake intensity of 3 or greater, which U.S.G.S. defines as “weak,” though the earthquake may be felt outside the areas shown. The New York Times
Two morning earthquakes with magnitudes of at least 3.5 struck near San Francisco on Friday and Sunday, according to the United States Geological Survey.
A 3.5-magnitude earthquake near Concord in the East Bay shook the area on Sunday, two days after a quake of similar magnitude struck in the Pacific Ocean off the coast of San Francisco on Friday, data from the agency shows. Residents across the region reported mild shaking but no immediate damage from either earthquake.
U.S.G.S. data for both earthquakes earlier reported that each one was as strong as a magnitude 3.7 quake. As seismologists review available data, they often revise the earthquake’s reported magnitude and update shake-severity maps.
The location of Friday’s earthquake recalled one of the biggest earthquakes of all time, a 7.9-magnitude quake that nearly destroyed San Francisco in 1906.
Friday’s quake, and its much more powerful relative, likely both occurred along the San Andreas fault, said Robert Skoumal, a research geophysicist at the United States Geological Survey. Preliminary location data from the U.S.G.S. suggested that the two may have shared more than a fault line — both occurred at very nearly the same location, about two miles west of Golden Gate Park.
Mr. Skoumal said it was not possible to determine with certainty whether the two quakes shared precisely the same epicenter because of changes in measuring techniques over the last century. “Back in 1906, we didn’t have the best seismic instruments out there,” he said.
Earthquakes of similar size are also fairly common in the area west of San Francisco, he said. “We’ve had dozens of magnitude threes just over the past several decades along this one little patch,” he said.
And while the risk of earthquakes in the San Francisco area is serious, Friday’s small earthquake did not signal the imminent arrival of a more destructive quake, he said. “I wouldn’t say this particular earthquake should make anyone worried,” Mr. Skoumal said.
Aftershocks in the region
An aftershock is usually a smaller earthquake that follows a larger one in the same general area. Aftershocks are typically minor adjustments along the portion of a fault that slipped at the time of the initial earthquake.
Quakes and aftershocks within 100 miles
Aftershocks can occur days, weeks or even years after the first earthquake. These events can be of equal or larger magnitude to the initial earthquake, and they can continue to affect already damaged locations.
Source: United States Geological Survey | Notes: Shaking categories are based on the Modified Mercalli Intensity scale. When aftershock data is available, the corresponding maps and charts include earthquakes within 100 miles and seven days of the initial quake. All times above are Pacific time. Shake data is as of Sunday, Jan. 12 at 3:15 p.m. Eastern. Aftershocks data is as of Wednesday, Jan. 15 at 9:02 p.m. Eastern.
Two earthquakes in the span of just three days have rattled the San Francisco Bay Area, leaving residents on edge and highlighting the region’s vulnerability to seismic activity.The first quake, a magnitude 4.5, struck near the city of Walnut Creek on Monday afternoon, sending tremors throughout the Bay Area and prompting many to take to social media to share their experiences. The second quake, a magnitude 3.8, hit the same area early Thursday morning, further unsettling residents who had barely recovered from the first event.
While neither quake caused significant damage or injuries, they serve as a reminder of the ever-present threat of earthquakes in the Bay Area. The region sits atop the notorious San Andreas Fault, a major tectonic boundary that has the potential to produce much larger and more destructive quakes.
In response to the recent seismic activity, experts are urging residents to be prepared for future earthquakes by creating emergency plans, securing furniture and belongings, and stocking up on supplies. The importance of having up-to-date maps and resources to navigate the aftermath of a quake cannot be overstated.
As we continue to monitor the situation in the San Francisco Bay Area, let us remember the importance of being proactive and prepared when it comes to earthquake safety. Stay safe, stay informed, and stay connected.
