    No no I don't really want a rebooted TNG series. If they are going to make another series, just make it something more original than yet one more reboot in a popular fantasy franchise. Only one thing worse than sequels i my book, and that is endless reboots!

    I always cringe when I read the word "reboot". It generally ends in disaster. I don't think anything needs to be rebooted, we simply need a new series all together. But unfortunately, with JJ Abrams' nuTrek, I don't see another series in the near future.

    Since all the rage now is mystery solving dramas (whether it be criminal or medical or judicial or international espionage), I fully expect the next Trek series to be some type of hybrid CSI/Law&Order/House/Dexter/etc. in space.

    Pity I hate CSI and Law and Order.

    Nahh, all they need to do to cater to that is have more in-depth analysis bits.

    TNG:

    Picard: "Data, you and Geordi analyze this shit."

    (Skip to the next scene, they've already analyzed it)

    Theoretical CBS Show:

    Picard: "Data, you and Geordi analyze this shit."

    (The next scene is Geordi and Data in a lab analyzing that shit. On the side, they're having personal conversations that reveal things about them as characters.)
