And then not a single fucking word about Discovery. No news about the new season despite the writers strike preventing the cast from promoting the show. No shots. No celebration. No fucking nothing.

I'll give them a mild defense here - they did discuss Discovery, albeit briefly:

“We have finished it. It will be airing early next year. It’s an incredibly satisfying ending to a show that is so near and dear to my heart. Sonequa Martin-Green gave the performance of her life. I think you guys are going to love it.”

It's very likely that they planned this panel to be non-WGA in the event that the writers' strike hadn't ended by the time of the convention, which would explain why the only panelist of note, besides Kurtzman himself, was Mike McMahan.
