Jonathan Cohen When Gabe Saporta aligned with Atlantic in 2007 via his band Cobra Starship’s deal with Fueled by Ramen/Decaydence, he’d already been through two other major-label systems and wasn’t overly optimistic things would be much different this time around. Much to his surprise, “Atlantic was unique in always letting us be our weird little selves,” helping the group score two multi-platinum top 10 hits on the Billboard Hot 100 amid a third wave of emo and pop-punk upstarts such as labelmates Fall Out Boy and Paramore. As such, it’s fitting Saporta is again back in business with Atlantic, even though he’s long since shifted from his lead singer role in Cobra Starship to one behind the scenes in management and artist development with his company TAG Music. (Note: Saporta’s company is not to be confused with a 1990s indie-centric Atlantic imprint also called TAG — for The Atlantic Group — that featured such artists as Jawbox and Fountains of Wayne.)

Scott Mantz In just about every way, the third and final season of “Star Trek: Picard” is both about looking back and moving forward. In addition to reuniting the crew of the U.S.S. Enterprise from “The Next Generation” for the first time since 2002’s “Star Trek: Nemesis,” it also features a new starship on which most of the action takes place: the U.S.S. Titan, first seen in animated form on “Star Trek: Lower Decks” and now refit as a Neo-Constitution Class Starship. For showrunner, executive producer and self-professed “Star Trek” fan Terry Matalas, the inspiration for a retro-looking starship came while he was shopping for a car. “I missed a proper saucer section on the top part of a starship, and I couldn’t help but notice how many cars have gone retro these days. And I remember, as I was driving around, I thought, ‘What if Starfleet did that?’”

Scott Mantz Throughout “Star Trek’s” long 56-year history, the Starship Enterprise has been designed, redesigned, reimagined, blown to smithereens and then reimagined again for the various TV incarnations and feature films based on the classic series created by Gene Roddenberry.But for the prequel series “Strange New Worlds,” which recently concluded its highly-praised first season, the responsibility to get the Enterprise just right was not lost on production designer Jonathan Lee. This was, after all, the Enterprise that was commanded by Captain Christopher Pike (played by Anson Mount), which was the immediate predecessor of the Enterprise that Captain James T. Kirk first made famous back in 1966 with “The Original Series.” “We were all of the mind that the Enterprise is a star of the show,” Lee explains.
