Things that you would like to see in Star Trek.

[Shaka Zulu]

More representation with the human race (with regards to where people are from). Hope one day that there is a main character that is from Australia.

We have a lot of that already in Starfleet Academy (with certain people on YouTube protesting against it and saying that it's 'woke' ), but yeah, I can go with that.

 

[Shaka Zulu]

I'd like to see something revolving around those guys who are like 'Yeah, I think I'll run a coffee shop in San Fran for the hell of it' and how his lark turns into a passion with the intersection of culture and the various other aspects of being on Earth during the whole 24th century. Or maybe I'm just looking for an excuse to have a character go: "You need to have a straight face when making that Vulcan mocha."

That concept was already shown here. But yeah, that could work as a sitcom.

People on YouTube most of the time wouldn't know if their arse was on fire.

Lots of yelling WOKE at everything but I think that outrage is fake to keep their audience and the revenue coming in.

 

[Set Harth]

So Fantasy Island but with a Trek twist, which actually would be neat. Hey who knows maybe Mr. Roarke was something like a Q

with a mean streak and a tendency to quote Melville...

Yes!!!!!!!! someone has to make it happen

 

[Osol Twist]

someone call Branson or Musk or any billionaire with a love for sci-fi.....

 

[Laura Cynthia Chambers]

What about an audience-focused episode (like one of those video games/rides where the audience members are treated like characters and are spoken to by the other characters)?

Could be fun depending on the type of story, what were you picturing?

 

[Laura Cynthia Chambers]

I hadn't thought beyond the format to a plot. Maybe the characters are recording a log addressed to whichever person finds it in the future and speak to the camera?

 

[Nerys Myk]

Increased comedy of course.

So, "In the Pale Moonlight?"

 

[Laura Cynthia Chambers]

More characters involved, perhaps, and medium weight - neither a jokefest nor a heavy emotional moment.

 

[bdub76]

Cthulhu mythos. I say this only because it does seem like Robert Bloch introduced the "Old Ones" in TOS, so there is now the ability to add more horror elements to Trek.

same lol more lol comedy in star trek

like its alrighty happened on lower decks

Maybe that's what the machine gods in Picard were, but also part organic

 

[korblborp]

there was a couple of TOS novels i picked up that seemed to have had eldritch beasties from beyond the stars as plot points, but i didn't read them before they went into storage due to having to move (and subsequently lost).

 

[MikHutch]

Actually everyday culture in the future. Not just "Shakespeare and Robin Hood"

 

[FederationHistorian]

I want them to take four different species - one from TOS, one from TNG, one from DS9, one from VOY - that are completely underrepresented and underdeveloped, and give them depth like the Cardassians and Ferengi were given in DS9, or the Andorians and Orions in ENT.

Star Trek has so many species as it is. They could use the ones they have introduced over the decades much better and more frequently.

 

[Chives]

A series revolving around a ship that patrols the federation border to the romulans. Lots of lonely space, lots of terrifying encounters (cuban missile crisis esq), lots of being the first to respond to the enterprise (yet again) getting into a skirmish at the border, lots of politics and thinly veiled insults. A crew made up of a lot of diplomats, anthropologists, experts on romulan culture, with a rotating cast of politicians, and then the security officers and the racist or generally distrustful officers who absolutely do not believe in negotiating with them. Conflict within the crew on exactly how to handle it. Ensigns who transfer there and immediately attempt to start a war, spies (both romulan and not), vulcan ambassadors who are most definitely not there to make sure the federation isnt dealing with their violent cousins. Refugees and long stranded federation members stuck in romulan space. Trade vessels who are definitely not smuggling anything. The whole first season the core principle is DO NOT CROSS THE BORDER. They don’t cross it at all the entire time, until the final episode. Pure tension and political drama, with infighting within the crew. Thinly veiled allegories for real politics in several episodes

so a small ship, not a like a Galaxy class size?
