Pitch terrible ideas for episodes

"Made of flesh." (TAS)
An episode of the cartoon series where the art team tries an experimental approach resulting in proto-Roger Rabit effects. Captain Kirk is hit by a space beam and becomes extra-dimensional -- to the point where anyone who looks at him becomes confused, not being able to comprehend him. After he's hit by the beam he's played by a live action William Shatner inserted into the show.

"Khan: The Eternal Vengenace" (A TOS movie.)
Time traveling genetic engineers clone a replica of Khan and don't let him in on the fact he's not the real Khan. They convince him they saved him from the jaws of death so that he could once again lead genetic engineered beings again. The Federation, in desperation, turns to the one man who beat him twice before: Captain James T. Kirk!

"The Wise Man's Son" (VOY) Alternate Series Finale
While exploring the Delta Quadrant the Voyager comes across what appears to be a Federation space station -- Deep Quadrent One. It was a secret long-term project of establishing Starfleet bases in each quadrent and then moving inward. They get a tour of the station. Then the Admiral tells Janeway he was 'just joshin'' her and actually, she was in the Alpha Quadrent the entire time. The Voyager's sensors had been fooled to think it was in the DQ and had been flying in a circular loop with occasional encounter played by actors. (Why'd ya think ya kept seein' so many AQ aleins, huh?') This was a secret project by Starfleet to see how your average starfleet starship would psychologically handel being straned far away.
 
^^ And it needs alien Nazis. :bolian:

I bow to your superior vision ;)

That's almost so "grrr!", I can't believe they didn't use it Kinda like a sequel to Projections, bringing the series almost full circle. It needs lacking about 47 retcons, but I think you're onto something with that :D
 
"2368 Summer Olympics"

A different episode where the crew watches highlights from the 2368 Summer Olympics on the bridge viewscreen. Some highlights:

100 meter race: A Vulcan takes the gold medal, a Klingon the silver and a Romulan the bronze. No human even makes it to the quarterfinals.

Gymnastics: Alien races takes all medals; all humans consistently show up at the very bottom of every standings list.

Swimming: Aqua-aliens from ocean planets win all medals; all humans come in dead last of course.

Marathon: Since the Olympics are held on Vulcan with its thin air and very hot climate, no human even makes it past the one mile marker let alone crosses the finish line before dropping almost dead from extreme exhaustion or heat stroke.

...I think y'all get the idea of sports in the 24th century.

The Enterprise turns up at Simmonsonia, a planet filled with Richard Simmons clones. The whole crew is then exposed to weight loss plans, causing Picard to become bullimic, which the senior staff have to combat.
 
Because you can't have too much of a good idea...

The Naked Nine (DS9)
"The Naked Time" is remade for DS9.

The Naked There (VGR)
"The Naked Time" is remade for Voyager.

The Naked Then (ENT)
"The Naked Time" is remade for Enterprise.

Make it Globogym and throw Ben Stiller in there and I'd pay to see that.
 
Humanity of the 24th century finally realize they're full of crap and apologize to every alien race they've ever imposed their morals on. Meanwhile, Data explores his sexuality... with a hologram of Joe Piscopo.

Yet another suggestion in this thread that's so out there that it just might work.

"The Wise Man's Son" (VOY) Alternate Series Finale
While exploring the Delta Quadrant the Voyager comes across what appears to be a Federation space station -- Deep Quadrant One. It was a secret long-term project of establishing Starfleet bases in each quadrant and then moving inward. They get a tour of the station. Then the Admiral tells Janeway he was 'just joshin'' her and actually, she was in the Alpha Quadrant the entire time. The Voyager's sensors had been fooled to think it was in the DQ and had been flying in a circular loop with occasional encounter played by actors. (Why'd ya think ya kept seein' so many AQ aliens, huh?') This was a secret project by Starfleet to see how your average starfleet starship would psychologically handle being stranded far away.

As jongredic already pointed out, this might have actually worked.

If I may, I'll add one to your list:

The Nekkid Time (Any series)
Not only is the crew nude, they're also Up To Something.

:lol: Makes so much more sense. I'd watch that.

Yeah, I'd quite like to see that... :)
 
Steve67: The U.S.S. Gloria Steinem? I could see a star system named in her honor, but I have difficulty figuring out what ship-class that would be and the registry. Perhaps an outpost in a DS9 relaunch-era fan fic. The Steinem System, the next M-Class star system after the Idran System at the end of The Bajoran Wormhole. Then again, would it be completely implausible to suggest it ~could~ be part of the Legacy-Class production run?

U.S.S. (Gloria) Steinem
NCC 79228
Legacy-Class

Suggestions for the dedication plaque?

Steinem II: A small Wild West-style town with Federation creature comforts (replimat / ten forward rather than a saloon,) and visible livestock (chicken, cows, etc.) roaming within the commercial area. Kids flying crude, home-made kites in a nearby community park as the Dads keep a leisurely eye on them. An art-sculptor / mechanic makes bicycles or shoes horses, while building custom carriages for grocery shopping or shuttling kids/pets around behind both either the bicycles or horses, to pay for supplies to create his/her less-'commercial' projects.

"Nature of Force" (TNG)

A sequel to "Force of Nature," this episode is about the Enterprise being stranded in a parallel universe where Starfleet dealt with the threat to subspace by destroying all other warp-capable ships. The races of the Alpha and Beta Quadrants are now confined to their respective homeworlds. It's up to Picard and crew to set everything straight.
 
Mr. Scott goes to Alcoholics Anonymous, gets a Vulcan sponsor and rights all of his wrongs committed on the drink, including finding the Klingon he hit in the Tribble bar. Towards the end though, Scotty finds the Klingon, hit it off, and go bar hopping in all the bars on Quon'os.
 
"Seven of Sixty-Nine"

Seven, Ezri and Jadzia Dax (who somehow co-exist), Deanna, Kira, Leeta and Robin Lefler get together for a girls night out and the Daxes teach Seven the delights of sapphism.
