    It would depend how it was done. Obviously Insurrection stands as an example of how not to do it. But how about:

    Our heroes get stranded on a planet (e.g. Cardassia), and are hunted through the wilderness like animals. They are finally taken in by a political underground, but then it turns out the organisation is riddled with spies (comedy scene of spies competing to turn each other in). The Enterprise crew end up in a show trial above a vast arena. After being found guilty, they are knock down into the arena, which is full of all sorts of hungry alien beasts....

    But then:

    Oh, I see. So not The West Wing or Madam Secretary in space then? :lol:

    Well, the market needs a spoonful of sugar to help the medicine go down. I'm certainly not proposing The West Wing in space. That would be even worse than the West Wing. Besides, we already had BSG :p
    I had in mind something more like a John Le Carre novel.

    Nothing is worse than The West Wing, I mean, besides everything.

    :lol: That about covers it. Although it seemed go down hill a bit after a while. Not sure if it came back from that or not.

    Save the Borg for the last movie of the 5 year mission - would make a good story line for a new movie with an all new cast (next generation of sorts)

    Khan, I said something to you before about bumping up old, inactive threads on a thin pretext. Please don't do it unless there's something of substance to be added.

    Closing.
