We let them try that once. We got the booger people.

I was thinking in a Thunderbirds style, but I’d be satisfied with Muppets.

ETA - I’m 45 and I’ve only just realised that Muppet is Puppet but with an M.

A meta episode with instrumental soundtracks, laugh tracks, scene cuts, audience reactions, feeling of being watched, etc...the characters experience the odd sensation that they are part of a TV show.
That sounds like it would be a weird planet to visit. Maybe we could get Jean Lorrah to write the script.

The NMRA Convention winds up this weekend (it wound up for me yesterday). On a bus tour to the Southern California Railway Museum in Perris, I spent 15 minutes learning the basics of how to run a diesel switcher. By the end of 15 minutes of instruction and running the locomotive under close supervision, I reached a point where I was able to stop it on-spot: picked out a weed along the track, and successfully put the front platform at that weed. Not bad for somebody who'd never handled a vehicle with air brakes before. Of course, if I'd been coupled to even one car, I probably wouldn't have been so successful.

And I've resumed reading GC's latest opus.

How about an episode on the planet Orion? Maybe something that could foreshadow Scotty's future problems on Argelius II?
 
Completely impossible due to a variety of reason, technical & budget limitations, but:

I want a multi-verse crossover episode, where the Pike crew meets the JJverse crew (and directly interacts with Pine & Quinto), and culminates in meeting & working together with the TOS crew (doing a Forest Gump/Trouble with Tribbles with Shatner & Nimoy footage).

With Terry Farrell fangirling on all three Spocks, in the background?
 
a crossover episode with a completely different franchise (superhero, crime or historical show)
  • A Dr. Who crossover

Oh, yes please. Since Trek and Doctor Who are now a thing, and RTD is back again - maybe they could do the Doctor Who / Star Trek Crossover, that they wanted to do in Enterprise. You know, the one with the ship, that is bigger on the inside, that the Tholians wanted to get, too?

I don't care that time travel is an overused story element, I want an Enterprise crossover. The reverence this show has shown to the NX-01 and her crew has me wanting it more then ever.
I think, the Doctor Who Crossover could be worked into this. Maybe, the Story begins with Admiral Archer being annoyed, since this whole Federation-business is exactly that, if you're just administrator. It's boring, and Archer thinks, that maybe, this whole Federation-idea doesn't last long, he wishes, that he could have one final flight with his NX-01. Then the Doctor appears - maybe he's already in the room, sits in a chair, turns it around, smiles at Archer and takes him and the crew of the NX-01 to the crew of the 1701. I mean, I'm all for multi-crossovers and cramming in as many people, as possible, so maybe SG-1 turns up, too?
A time-loop episode, with the humor the one Stargate SG-1 did..
Time-loop episode with humour? I'm all for that.
 
Didn't Disco do a decent time-loop episode? I seem to recall that being a thing in Disco that I liked.

Disco definitely did that. You're absolutely right.

The trouble with the idea of a Star Trek/Doctor Who crossover, is that Who has gone so far into fantasy that it makes live-action Trek seem like a gritty realistic drama by comparison. It's a good match for the Trek comic books though!
Granted, my Doctor Who Knowledge is a tadbit on the dated side, since I had no opportunity to watch the Series post "Flux" - but I don't think, that these styles would clash that much.
