    After those unfounded rumors of a new Trek show, some Redditing, the fake shows on Community, and too much television in general, I'd like to propose a game: make a pitch for a show that combines Star Trek with stereotypical TV show conventions, or a show-in-a-show. They can be any genre, from dramas to sitcoms. The more outlandish, the better. Bonus points if you have a title!

    I'll start:

    "Daniels is a no-nonsense Temporal Agent from the 31st century. Rasmussen is a wacky history thief from the 22nd century. Daniels has arrested Rasmussen, but can Rasmussen help Daniels find true love in all of time and space?"

    --Or--

    "Working class hero Miles O'Brien goes home every night to his loving wife Keiko and his two children Molly and Kirayoshi. But their lives are turned upside down when Admiral Archer's prized beagle mysteriously beams into their living room after being lost for 120 years! And he can talk!"

    Star Trek Pawn features Captains Picard and Sisko managing their shop, Space Pawn, aboard an interplanetary trading post station.

    In our first episode, Quark brings in a 3782-year-old statue of Grand Nagus Gint which he claims to be made of 25% latinum. Then Q brings the first single-celled organism to arise from the primordial ooze on Earth, only to realize that the shop has vanished.

    In episode seven, Larry Mudd brings what he claims to be a lost Soong-type android into the shop, but is this android the real deal? Later, a sentient cloud brings in a tiny universe which has been suspended within a glass marble.

    At the end of the first season, Picard and Sisko become the center of controversy when it is discovered that the experts they call into the shop to verify and appraise items are really just Odo.

    A ferengi is traveling to earth to conduct business with a cardassian after the war ends. The ferengi is trying to sell a weapon to the cardassian that accidentally switches their consciousness after a freak accident that destroys the device. They then have to work together along with the aid of a star fleet drop out to find a way to fix what has happened.

    The Odd Couple:

    Quark and Odo both spend the night with a woman whose species bears daughters with 100% maternal DNA. The woman had a child and then dies, and the daughter shows up on their doorstep, and they don't know which one is the father.

    They must move into an apartment and raise this child together.

    I just love that we already have three pitches with Ferengi, and two of them are with Quark. And the hijinks ensue :)
