Rename TNG

Next Generation seemed appropriate since it's the generation after TOS that's watching it. They wanted to tell us it was going to be different and was. Gene really wanted to correct TOS's mistakes.

But in-universe it's actually about three generations later, so I don't think it's so appropriate.

As Scotty said in Relics: "I was doing <something> when your grandfather was still in diapers."

Well it doesn't have to be in-universe as the titles are addressing modern viewers of a TV show.

TNG is perfect.

But for the sake of fun, Star Trek: The Forehead Aliens Strike Back.
That's Star Trek: The Forehead Aliens Strike Back!

Star Trek: Ham It Up Shatner So No One Notices the Styrofoam Boulders
Star Trek: Distract Them With War
Star Trek: Kazon Who? Look Borg!
Star Trek: It's Been a Long Road And Now It's Over
 
No kidding. Both titles accurately describe the series.

Or you can add Star Trek: Group Encounter Sessions
You mean the meetings in which wisdom was discerned as opposed to trying to zap god-aliens with phasers and lucking out alive? Trek needed more meetings. More parsing out the unknown possibilities of existence. Instead we got decon gel.
