I've been looking at SeaQuest DSV, really for the first time, and I'm looking at season 3 now, and Michael Ironside's Captain Hudson reminds me of Captain Jellico. And it got me thinking about what if for whatever reason Picard hadn't come back, and Jellico stayed captain.
How do you all think the rest of the series would've gone, as well as the TNG movies? Would there have been a Jellico-Kirk meeting in Generations? I imagine that they wouldn't have done First Contact, at least the same way because there was no relationship with Jellico and the Borg. A youthful Jellico in Insurrection could've been fun to see. Also, would there have been a Shinzon clone of Jellico? Would Jellico have quit Starfleet over the Romulans?
For the series, I see Will Riker leaving, but they could just bring in Tom Riker. And I could see Data being made first officer, but it would also open the door to bring in another new character to be first officer or to take Data's old job, like how Fredericks came in with Hudson on SeaQuest.
