    Without knowing much else about the show, the casting for Pike is definitely the draw for me. He looks perfect for the role!

    He has a very old-fashioned charming look, like Shatner in his heyday, or the original Pike.

      Honestly it throws me because sometimes he seems like he’d be the perfect Kirk too. Anson Mount is a whole slab of man I’m glad we’ve tossed on the Trek grill.

      Doesn’t help that he’s an INCREDIBLE actor. Fucking love that man and his smile. Goddammit if I wasn’t already gay…

        Dude, I sit super low on the Kinsey scale, and I couldn’t agree more. I should really check out his other work; I don’t think I’d ever heard of him prior to SNW. Have you seen him in other stuff?

          I know he was in the MCU Immortals or Inhumans or whatever. I didn’t see it though. I’ve never seen him in anything other than Star Trek, although I’m sure his work in other stuff is just as good considering how established he is. However I’d follow that man into Avernus.

            Aww, now you’ve got me (Chris?)pining (sorry) for a Trek/Forgotten Realms crossover that ships Pike with Karlach. Maybe I can will it into existence, à la The Secret!
