The comedian and former One Mississippi star will guest-star on the CBS All Access drama as chief engineer Denise Reno of the USS Hiawatha, which was briefly mentioned in a Star Trek video game as an Akula-class ship affiliated with the Federation Starfleet. As is Star Trek: Discovery custom, the announcement of her role didn't reveal how many episodes she'll appear in. Notaro is coming off of Season 2 of her autobiographical Amazon series One Mississippi, which was canceled in January (https://www.tvtattle.com/item/Why-Amazon-made-a-terrible-decision-in-canceling-Tig-Notaro-s-One-Mississippi-lRSxaq). She also directed Jessica Williams and Phoebe Robinson's recent 2 Dope Queens specials (https://www.tvtattle.com/item/Jessica-Williams-and-2-Dope-Queens-podcast-partner-Phoebe-Robinson-are-coming-to-HBO-in-February-with-Jon-Stewart-vaSL02) for HBO.
