With the premiere of Star Trek: Picard less than two weeks away, CBS has revealed that former Star Trek: The Next Generation star Will Wheaton will host the series’ after show, The Ready Room.
The series will air following the conclusion of each new episode of Picard on Thursday nights for a deep dive into each episode. The Ready Room was previously hosted by Naomi Kyle. The series replaced the original Star Trek: Discovery after-show After Trek last year, which was hosted by Matt Mira.
Wheaton’s duties on The Ready Room will mark his return to the Star Trek franchise, as he was last seen as Wesley Crusher in the 2002 film Star Trek: Nemesis. He also voiced a Romulan (although uncredited) in the 2009 Star Trek reboot.
Following his role on Star Trek: The Next Generation, Wheaton has appeared on television series Supergirl, The Big Bang Theory, Dark Matter, and Eureka. Additionally he has lent his voice talents to the animated series Teen Titans Go!, Transformers: Power of the Primes, and Stretch Armstrong and the Flex Fighters.
Star Trek: Picard and The Ready Room will premiere on CBS All Access in the United States on January 23.

This is great news. He will be able to provide nice insights. He’s a very cable and bright media savvy person and to use a ‘shut up wesley’ style photo that’s literally 30 years old is dismissive and disrespectful and not something I would expect out of a web site that caters to fans. Maybe loss the tired and tiresome worn out cliches behind? TSM.

Great news about Wil Wheaton. He is an excellent host, and as part of the Trek family, will add a fun extra dimension with the show’s guests. Hopefully he will also do hosting duties for Discovery’s Ready Room whenever that premieres.

Again with the rage? Seek help from a friend. Get out of the house. Go for a stroll and sniff the flowers. Life’s too short for all this anger you express online. We all just want you to be happy. Please be happy. There’s enough suffering and misery in the world without getting upset over a fucking TV show.

You are about as clever as a disease plagued skunk fume, you know that right? You aren’t making me mad, and I was never raging. Moron!
