Paramount's Trek universe keeps expanding.
BY MARCO VITO ODDO
Producer Alex Kurtzman has revealed he’s overseeing two more original shows set in the Star Trek universe for Paramount+: one focused on Starfleet Academy and a second based on Section 31. During an interview for The New York Times, Kurtzman spoke about the recent success of the newest Star Trek series and the future projects that will lead Star Trek to unexplored corners of the universe.
Starfleet Academy will be aimed at a younger public, although Kurtzman doesn’t reveal if this will be an animated project or a live-action one. As for Section 31, the show will reportedly star Michelle Yeoh as Captain Philippa Georgiou, the character she played on Star Trek: Discovery. In Star Trek lore, Section 31 is a rogue organization born as part of Starfleet Intelligence, before parting ways with the United Federation of Planets. Showing up first on Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, Section 31 was created to explore the darker aspects of the path to creating the future utopia featured in the Star Trek universe.
Kurtzman has already produced five Star Trek projects for ViacomCBS: Star Trek: Discovery; Star Trek: Picard; Star Trek: Lower Decks, which returns next week for a second season; Star Trek: Prodigy, which will debut in the fall; and Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, expected to be released in 2022. Both Discovery and Picard are among the most-watched original series on Paramount+, evidence that the streaming platform is highly dependent on the Star Trek franchise to attract new subscriptions.
There are no further details about Starfleet Academy and Section 31, but as the projects take shape, you can expect to read all about them ... at Collider.

I mean.. it's not a bad theme, if you think about it. That's pretty much Harry Potter and friends going to Hogwart's school of Witchcraft is.
They're surely so much they can do. I just don't have confidence how well the current Star Trek TV producers will execute it.

"These are the adventures of The Red Squad..."
And of course people will watch school-themed shows.
• Veronica Mars
• Roswell
• Smallville
• The Vampire Diaries
• Pretty Little Liars
• Boy Meets World
• One Tree Hill
• Degrassi High
• Degrassi: TNG
• Friday Night Lights
• Buffy the Vampire Slayer
• Dawson's Creek
• My So-Called Life
• Gossip Girl
• Glee
• Freaks and Geeks
• Saved by the Bell
• Beverly Hills, 90210
So there's a market. I won't watch it, but there might be a need for futuristic sci-fi young adult angst that's not being met.

There's a tonne of shows set around schools/colleges etc as Taku listed many. I think if this is aimed at slightly younger audiences (as I've heard it might be) then that's a fair good market to aim for as people in the young adult age will recognise and understand the school themes.
But there's plenty of stories could be told even within that setting. I mean we had academy plots show up a few times in the main series'; Red Squad - the cadets on that Defiant class in DS9, Nova Squadron - Wesley and Tom Paris' group who got a friend killed.
There's also the Kobayashi Maru simulation which could no doubt pop up a few times.

I'll probably watch it just because it's Star Trek. But I won't be that interested if it's aimed at younger audiences,.
Now that I think about it, I'd much rather see the Klingon version of Starfleet Academy as a TV show, or even the Romulan version. I feel there'd be a lot more interesting stories to tell there than at Starfleet Academy.

Thinking about it, if the Premise of the show is Similar to the Kelvin Starfleet Academy comic I might give it a shot, it was a good read.

I liked both Season 2 and 3 of Discovery and look forward to a Academy setting series and kinda of like Babylon 5 it could be a series that is written for a set time. Only having four seasons like the four years of the academy. Pike i'm interested in too
