Summary[]

Background information[]

• On 27 February 2019, it was announced that the series had been renewed for a third season. [1]
• On 18 March 2019, it was announced that Season 2 series regular Anson Mount (Christopher Pike) and guest star Rebecca Romijn (Una Chin-Riley) would not be returning for Season 3. [2]
• On 20 July 2019, it was announced that David Ajala (Cleveland Booker) had joined the cast.
• As of 5 May 2020, Composer Jeff Russo was working on writing the fourth episode of this season and spotting through episode 8. [3]
• As part of a celebratory series of virtual panels on "Star Trek Day" this year (i.e., 8 September 2020), it was announced that this season would introduce a new font for the show's title. [4]
• On 14 October 2020, it was announced that the opening titles for this season, as had been the case for those used in the second season, would feature new animations. [5] Robots featured in the opening credits sequence for this season are identified in the Netflix audio description track as "maintenance robots".
• The third season, consisting of thirteen episodes, premiered on 15 October 2020, following the ten-week run of Star Trek: Lower Decks.
• The premise of this season has similarities to the unproduced concepts Star Trek: Federation and Star Trek: Final Frontier. In the former, the Federation, circa the year 3000, had collapsed to a handful of worlds, and a single ship represented Starfleet's original values. In the latter, the Federation was fractured after an attack in the 2460s by unknown parties with Omega molecules caused vast areas of the galaxy to be considered impassable, and the crew of the latest starship Enterprise, circa the 2520s, had to remind Starfleet of the higher ideals which that organization, and the Federation, were founded on.
• In effect, the premise has even more in common with another Gene Roddenberry production, Andromeda (2000–2005), a science fiction television series in which the namesake starship is transported into the future to find the intergalactic civilization from which it was derived has collapsed, after which the crew embarks on the mission to restore said civilization.
• Both review critics and fans have concurrently pointed out that the season three plotline constituted a reboot of sorts, as indeed announced by the series producers after season two, and that it was reminiscent of the "orphaned ship and crew" premise of Star Trek: Voyager, thereby becoming a "Voyager 2.0" as one Discovery sympathizing reviewer had put it. [6]
• A series of "Star Trek Logs" are being released on Instagram throughout the season. These short videos consist of in-universe personal log recordings from the main cast, posted after each new episode. [7]
• Principal photography was reported as finished on 19 December 2019 with the last scenes filmed at Kingston Penitentiary, Ontario, Canada. [8]
• However, two months later, on 24 February 2020, season three was again reported finishing up principal photography. [9] This was indicative of extensive reshoots, something that by now had become commonplace for the series, as the two previous seasons have been reported to have undergone extensive reshoots as well. Considering the sense of finality of the season finale (underscored by the closing Gene Roddenberry quote in the episode), it has given rise to internet rumors that the series had run its course, the announcement of a renewal for a fourth season notwithstanding. [10] Furthermore, season three did not end with a cliffhanger, contrary to the two previous seasons.

Awards[]

The season was nominated for a 2021 GLAAD Media Award on 28 January 2021. [11] After having already been nominated twice for the preceding seasons, the award was this time won by the franchise on 8 April 2021. [12]

The CAFTCAD "Special Effects Costume Building"-category award was a tied win with the first season of Odd Squad Mobile Unit. [13] Keith Lau was a three-time nominee out of six in his individual "Costume Illustration" award category – besides Discovery, for Altered Carbon and Snowpiercer as well – , but did not manage to secure a win (neither did his Discovery colleague Ciara Brennan for that matter, against whom Keith was competing too), and had to make do with the three shared awards he (and Brennan) did win. That Discovery did well at the Canadian CAFTCADs was hardly a surprise, considering its six nominations in fifteen categories, nine of which Discovery was not even eligible for. [14] It is indicative of the (economic) importance Discovery represents for the Canadian motion picture industry, as it is entirely produced in that country.

The episode "Su'Kal" became only – "only" because the preceding Berman-era Star Trek had done exceptionally well in the underlying award category during its run – the second episode of Kurtzman-era Star Trek after the second season episode "Such Sweet Sorrow, Part 2" to receive a visual effects (VFX) Emmy Award nomination on 13 July 2021, [15] which was won this time around on 12 September 2021.

The Johnny-come-latelies in the award season were the 2021 Saturn Awards (covering the years 2019 and 2020) which were only awarded on 26 October 2021, having been postponed for nearly two years due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Still, it did not prevent Discovery to win two of its three nominations, in the process beating out franchise sibling Star Trek: Picard (whose 2019 first season was nominated for the same award) in the most prestigious television category, "Best Science Fiction Television Series". [16]

Having won seven out of the twenty-seven award nominations, the third season achieved a success rate of 26%, an 1% improvement over the preceding season, though it should be noted that the previous single CAFTCAD award was this year split up into five further separate award categories.
