Tonight’s installment of CBSAA’s “Short Treks,” set 1,000 years after the events of “Star Trek Discovery,” was co-written by Michael Chabon, who co-scripted also 2012’s big-screen space adventure “John Carter.” Chabon, who won the Pulitzer for fiction 17 years ago, joined the staff of “Star Trek Discovery” after its showrunners were sacked earlier this year.
NBC says of tonight’s “The Lizard and the Owl”:
Michael helps Eleanor recall forgotten events from her past with Chidi, causing Eleanor to fixate on the philosophy of determinism.
