Yeoh's full quote:

I mean, this is like a dream come true. You know, I've been wanting to do this for so long. Even before Star Trek: Discovery was launched, I sent to Alex Kurtzman and said, ”Got to do the spin-off, got to do the follow-up on Georgiou.” This is one of the most intriguing and sophisticated characters who isn't dark, in the light, you know? You never know she's coming or going, or whether she's gonna cut your legs off.

Edit: Clarify the quote

I would be happy to see these characters again, under a different writer/director team.

My thoughts exactly.

It would be great if they could bring Kim & Lippoldt back as showrunners/EPs and get someone else to direct it.

Really like Michelle Yeoh but found the character odd. Like everyone was mourning her when she left but she had been a dick to almost everyone.

Then again I generally detest alternate universe BS myself, always have to skip TNG, Voyager etc episodes that cover it.

If you make 3 shows with the TNG formula they will all do well, ngl.

And it probably would have been a better spin-off if it hadn’t been Alex Kurtzman that she had to ask.

[–] EarMaster 2 points 4 days ago

Maybe her character would have been better if she hadn't shown interest in such a spinoff. If the character had been limited to Discovery's first season it would had been bearable because they had this whole mirror timeline thing going on. But afterwards I just couldn't understand why anyone would want to have her around - yet give her any responsibility...
