I would, yes - it's got the majority of the info.

The majority of the lore comes from the TNG episode - the Discovery season mostly deals with a hunt for the Progenitors' lost technology, with the main revelation being that the Progenitors had found it, not invented it, so the original life-giving entities remain unknown.

They did address this to an extent, way back in TNG's "The Chase" - the TL;DR is that most sapient life in the galaxy was seeded by an ancient race, and therefore have some common ancestry. This was expanded upon somewhat in Discovery's fifth season.

Interesting - it's possible we're drawing from different sources. I found this TrekMovie piece:

He was supposed to be directing Genesis’s episode, actually, in season 2, but there was some conflict going on, and hopefully he’ll be back again. He’s the warmest, kindest person.

Yeah, this is already something they can (and do) do under the terms of NORAD.

(The actor who plays Genesis recently let slip when asked about Jonathan Frakes, that he’d been originally scheduled to direct her character’s second season feature episode but there had been “fighting going on” and Frakes was pushed back to directing a later episode!)

Oh interesting...I tracked this down, and it looks like she said "conflict," which could mean...just about anything, right down to simple scheduling conflicts.

One thing's for certain: making TV is hard.

My first thought was debate class or something like that.

The obvious candidate for this based on what we've seen so far is Darem, but...

What if it's Jay-Den? He's certainly featured in a number of the stills.

Yes, indeed.

This strategy will include measures to implement unit price labelling so Canada can compare easily in this era of 'shrinkflation,' as well as support for the work of the Competition Bureau in monitoring and enforcing competition in our market," he said.

This would be a welcome requirement in my books.

The whole situation is rather odd, but I'm not comfortable speculating about what may have happened.

I'm just glad that things seem to be okay between Wiseman and production, and there at least seems to be a chance that we'll see more of her in the future.

"All Is Possible" was really not a favourite of mine, though.

He's a central character in the upcoming comic book so I'm guessing that means we will.

He's got some serious chemistry with Jay-Den, too.

It's important to find balance in all things. We'll keep the lights on.
