Well, if I were in charge it really would be the best ever.
We need a new TV series taking place during ST VI: The Undiscovered Country

Wrong. I’m the only fan who can make Star Trek the best ever.
I sense this is how the Star Trek Crusades start. All the individual fans believing their vision is the One which will lead to the Franchise's Salvation. They then build up their own militaries non-militaristic exploration forces and wage war against each other.
I was thinking maybe something about a decade after TUC. Maybe a DS9-type show dealing with the uneasy peace with Klingons and worsening relations with Romulans (culminating in the Tomed Incident).

I've been wanting a Post TUC era series/film for a long time. It's an era that seems really interesting (Nerendra III, Treaty of Algernon) yet deeply unexplored to the point where I don't think you need to worry about canon issues.
You have no idea how many siblings I intend to give Spock in my first year alone.
I would have been happy with any series set in the tmp-tuc timeline, but I dont think itll ever happen. I think as far as the management is concerned, its too old skool. So, if anything were to happen at all, it'd fall on the shoulders of fan productions. IE Starship Farragut, and the like. Maybe OTOY will do something with their Memory Wall project....
Prior to ENT, I speculated that if TPTB didn't want to go further into the future after VOY, then the next series would be a "Star Trek: The Lost Generation" set aboard the Enterprise-B. If Alan Ruck wasn't interested in reprising the role of Captain Harriman for an ongoing series, then it would deal with his successor (whoever that might be). While there would be foreshadowing of things to come--the fallout between the Klingons and the Romulans, the Tomed Incident, and the Federation-Cardassian Border Wars--I'd hope the series could explore a lot of things that we don't know about the time between Star Trek VI and TNG, including many new alien races that were unknown in Kirk's time and only briefly mentioned in passing in Picard's...
My fantasy series idea is the crew of the USS Pawnee, a Constellation Class ship set during the change from 23rd to the 24th centuries. We'd revisit the occasional planet from the TOS era and occasionally visit or make first contact with planets and cultures from the TNG era.
I'm in favor of any part of the movie-era. But if they're going to do the maroons they CANNOT do that monstrosity that Pike wore in A Quality of Mercy.
With the "same but different" of SNW all the rage, I would be interested to see what they could do with the TMP era.
Hey Paul Wesley is ALMOST the right age for TMP Kirk!

So what is your favorite type?
Here is a synopsis I wrote back in 2018 which used the ideas from DSC season 1 as the basis for a new show taking place during that time:
2311- The Klingon Empire, with the help of the United Federation of Planets, have rebuilt the Praxis moon and fixed the ecological damage to their space. It appears that there will finally be lasting peace between the two powers, with a treaty about to be signed, until T’Kuvma, a rival to the chancellorship, appears over Qo’nos with the Tomed, a massive battlecruiser utilizing Klingon & Romulan technology, assassinates Chancellor Azetbur, stages a coup and takes over as leader of the Empire. He hates that his people have become weak and complacent to their Federation saviors. The Romulans also have concerns. Their intel has discovered a secret Federation base code-named Salem One near the Klingon/Romulan Neutral Zone. The Romulans believe that Starfleet Intelligence is building new warships with Klingon cloaking devices at this base, severely changing the balance of power in the sector. The Romulan praetor has formed an alliance with T’Kuvma. They plan on destroying the space station in a sneak-attack with the Tomed.
Meanwhile, at Salem One, there is indeed a top secret project going on, but it is not cloaked warships. Instead, they are building prototype vessels containing a new drive system utilizing spores from a mycelial network in subspace. The drive can transport the ships anywhere at any distance in the blink of an eye, and is intended to make conventional warp travel obsolete. The ships simply disappear and reappear somewhere else, which the Romulan secret intel mistakenly observe as the ships cloaking and decloaking.
When the USS Shenzhou, sent to the Klingon homeworld to ferry Azetbur to the Federation to sign the peace treaty, comes under attack from Klingon ships now under the command of T’Kuvma, overseen by his second-in-command, the Albino, the crew realize that something has gone horribly wrong. The Albino’s ships severely damage the Shenzhou, and the ship’s captain, Phillipa Georgiou, sends out a distress call, although she believes it is a doomed endeavor since there are no other Federation ships in the sector. However, as the Shenzhou gets pummeled, another Starfleet vessel seemingly appears out of nowhere, disables the Klingon ships, and beams the survivors of the Shenzhou aboard. It is the USS Discovery, one of the prototypes built at Salem One with the spore drive. The ship was able to instantaneously come to the Shenzhou’s rescue in time. However, all of this is reported to T’Kuvma. This is all the proof he and the praetor need that Starfleet is indeed planning on building an invasion fleet of cloaked ships. The Tomed attacks and destroys Salem One, with all the other prototype spore drive ships, and the new Klingon/Romulan alliance declares war on the Federation.
How could you tell? ALL the maroons are monstrosities.
Hiking Cannon Mountain in New Hampshire, which I did in the summer of 2015. In the winter, it's also a ski resort. I got lost, then that was a whole adventure in and of itself, I did things I shouldn't have done, and I put my life at risk. But it felt awesome and exhilarating. My favorite type of masochism.So what is your favorite type?
EDITED TO ADD: Here's the whole story, from two Facebook posts of mine at the time.
June 20, 2015. I drove three hours to Cannon Mountain in New Hampshire and met up with four people. Early on in the hike, we as a group decided to go back down. Keep reading.
We decided to take the rail up. I only got a one-way ticket. After everyone left, I decided I was going to do what I set out to do.
I hiked down. Or rather tried to. I got lost at one point and ended up going around a lake before I worked my way through Mount Lafayette (how'd I get to another mountain?!) which was STEEP, let me repeat that -- it was S_T_E_E_P. and *then* finally made it back to Cannon Mountain.
I tried getting down, then ended up going up. When I saw how high I was, I realized it was easier to get to the top than the bottom.
Only when I reached the bottom, the rail was closed. I didn't want to risk getting lost again, so I went down the ski area. It was steep, it was dangerous, and I was possibly putting my life at risk, but I made it back down.
After that I drove to Rhode Island for a party. Also a three-hour drive.
So... it didn't go the way I planned but ended up going exactly the way I wanted. I got what I was looking for, even though it wasn't the way I thought it would be. The hardest, most difficult hike imaginable.
So how do I feel after all of that, physically? I'm in good shape. I'm not tired. My muscles aren't that sore at all. And I wore leggings instead of jeans, so I didn't have to worry about chaffing (that was a problem last time). The only real probably was dehydration, but drinking a lot of water and juice. I probably shouldn't have coffee or soda but, anyway, I'm filling up on fluids.

So, yeah, much like the character whose username I have, I'm not a sane person.

Discovery Season 5 ending with Michael becoming the Leader of a planet settled by the Spockians, the descendants of all these siblings, which finally (re)joins the FederationPrequel after prequel. Each with a new Spock sibling!

Funny story. My gf owns a house in New Hampshire. On my first visit there, she asked me if I wanted to go on a hike with her. What I didn’t realize was that hike = climbing a mountain. I was totally unprepared with my Sketchers sneakers with worn soles, no hiking poles, and no water. By the time I reached the top of the mountain I wanted to push her over the edge. Miraculously we didn’t break up after that day but instead she took me to REI where she bought me Salomon hiking boots and poles, and we hiked up a different mountain the next day with better preparation.
WHY are you climbing a mountain?
Because it’s there.
