Should Riker be inserted into every Trek episode of ever show?

[Roundabout]

These are the voyages of Jonathan Frakes.
His infinite mission is to explore the meaning of being annoying.
To seek out an ever bigger payday from Paramount.
To meekly go where no one wants to see him anymore.

All episodes should simply have a silhouetted overlay of a bearded man sitting in an empty row of seats at the bottom of the screen. The shows are given the new name "WRT3K".

I think every character should be replaced by Rikers.

You know, back in the 90s there was already a concentrated effort to get Riker into more television outside of TNG. And yes, I actually meant to say Riker, not Frakes. For example:

This topic reminds me of an Onion story from a while ago, "Leslie Jones signs onto 30 movie contract to remake your childhood favorites".

They should insert Commander Riker into current Primetime shows, a la Seinfeld-Vision:

Absolutely, he should be inserted into every show ever!

Just think of how "Dennis the Menace" might look if it's Riker roaming around with his slingshot.

Or "The Bing Bang Theory". Makes for a more interesting Howard...

Or "ALF". A big hairy thing from planet Melmack that makes snarky comments and moralizes. The beard's 80% there already! Add another 12% for Riker's overall season 1 attitude combined with every time he snipes at Data.

"Mork and Mindy" as well, and we'd have finally gotten to see Robin Williams interact with (one of) the TNG cast. Just in reverse chronological order.

Frakes would probably cancel or just not show up to film it.

I realize that most of this thread has been played for laughs. However, what I'd really like to see is someone re-edit Trouble With Tribbles, but with the cast of DS9 from Trials and Tribble-ations inserted in.

This looks like a kind of Deal or no Deal. This is how they called the German version of the show. It is a show I don't expect Riker to be inserted. Rather Quark or Zek or the worst possible person: Brunt FCA!

So does Harold now count as a canon character? Should we see a episode or movie about how this modern day human is now having to live in the 24th century?

"The Trouble with Trials and Tribble-ations" - both episodes just merged into each other as one big story.

Might also be doable with The Pegasus and TATV and maybe Star Trek VI and Flashback.

 

[Ralphis]

Each time you watch a old episode you can have a "Where's Waldo" moment where you try and spot Riker in the show.

This is legit the best idea I've ever heard brought forth to the world wide digitawebs.

Kirk: What does God need with a starship?
Riker: *Peaks head out from behind rock. Grins. Strokes beard*

He would post spoilers about it and enrage the Internet

After "Hide & Q", Riker changed his mind about not letting Q turn him into one of them. After Q turned Riker into another Q, this time for good, he appeared in everything everywhere as whoever he wanted to be, wherever he wanted to be.

This makes sense. In fact their is no Johnathan Frakes at all. Frakes is Riker with Q power who turned his universe and part of his life into some tv shows. Wasn't enough though and he wanted to even play himself and direct episodes and movies in it. Are universe is just a Frakes created Fake Universe for him to live in now that he has powers. Only the universe runs like a holodeck. If Frakes isn't around their is no, us at all. When your alive it only means he is nearby or watching you. It means he is watching at least one of us right now and the rest of us are literally just words on a computer screen to whichever version of us is currently near Frakes. Any memories you might have form those non Frakes moments are just fake memories you aquire to feel like a real human being for those rare living moments. Most likely written by Frakes himself meaning he has come up with our entire backstories and current lives.

^ All of that, but add that Jonathan Frakes is secretly Elvis.

"Should Riker be inserted into every Trek episode of every show?"

Instead, Trekkies should channel their inner Riker and use him to bring out the best in everything they do, rather than trying to find him in everything they watch. Look inside yourselves, people ... and when you find that strength, confidence and the ability to carry it with a certain nonchalance, you know you'll have found him.

And the historian who recorded Kirk's era was high on LSD, and the historian for Burnham's era was just terrible at his job.

Per TVH, people of Kirk's era know it as "LDS."
