After those unfounded rumors of a new Trek show, some Redditing, the fake shows on Community, and too much television in general, I'd like to propose a game: make a pitch for a show that combines Star Trek with stereotypical TV show conventions, or a show-in-a-show. They can be any genre, from dramas to sitcoms. The more outlandish, the better. Bonus points if you have a title!
I'll start:
"Daniels is a no-nonsense Temporal Agent from the 31st century. Rasmussen is a wacky history thief from the 22nd century. Daniels has arrested Rasmussen, but can Rasmussen help Daniels find true love in all of time and space?"
--Or--
"Working class hero Miles O'Brien goes home every night to his loving wife Keiko and his two children Molly and Kirayoshi. But their lives are turned upside down when Admiral Archer's prized beagle mysteriously beams into their living room after being lost for 120 years! And he can talk!"
