DS9's Nana Visitor Pitches An Explosive Star Trek Crossover With Captain Sisko

Is DS9 big enough for these two Star Trek icons?

...to bring into the show… I would love to work with Kate Mulgrew. She has the whole Captain command aura and presence about her, and that would be a real upheaval to the show. How would that work out? I see sparks all over the place, and with Captain Sisko. Not sure they’d get along. Those are two alphas. I think that would be really interesting.

So which two Trek characters would you like to have seen meet up? Would they argue or cooperate?

Although they actually co-starred together on Deep Space Nine, I always thought it would have been interesting to have Kira and Worf double-teaming, which to my recollection they never did. (Feel free to correct me, but there’s no particular Kira/Worf dynamic established, and I’d have liked to see how one played out — not romantically or anything, but given their respective but differing martial backgrounds.)

Ezri Dax and B'elanna Torres.

Same show, different universes -- Chief Miles O'Brien and Captain "Smiley" O'Brien. You can never have too much Colm Meaney.

DS9 writers loved pairing Garak with main characters, forcing them to question and defend their values. The meeting that should take place on screen: Garak and Picard.

See a recent TNG novel, Pliable Truths by Dayton Ward, which features just this.

Indeed, Picard and Garak are both on the cover.
