Short Treks

Before Star Trek: Discovery starts tonight in the US and later today on Netflix, they now have the Short Treks.

Runaway could easily be the TNG-style B story in a regular episode, with Tilly on the Discovery getting a chance to work through some issues.

Calypso is a much more high-concept episode, with the ship AI saving an escape pod a thousand years in the future.

The Brightest Star is an origin story for Saru. And a surprising one after the Mirror Universe had Kelpiens not uncommon on Empire ships.

Escape Artist brings back Harry Mudd, in a more TOS funny SF conman version than his previous Discovery appearances.
