    I would love to see an episode performed 'live'. Maybe a tense situation set entirely on the bridge...

    With all the tech and "Magic potions" through out Trek they wouldn't have to look far for a Legion of Super-Heroes

    Planet rangers, with each Federation world represented by a colorful warrior.

    Someone suggested a fast forward where the Enterprise goes forward in time. I think taking them to the Dominion War could be interesting. Have them encounter a Defiant class ship a Starfleet dedicated warship. That would probably be wild for SNW crew. The SNW crew encountering the Federation at war and now Klingons as a true ally could be interesting too since SNW just came out of a war. Also seeing the Federation/Starfleet dealing with another conflict could be tough for the crew. Play on the ole “how in the future could be still having wars, etc.”

    This would be an interesting idea but they'd really have to make it a bottle episode since they couldn't show anything outside of whatever practical sets they have. They'd have to be trapped in a shuttle or something.

    Trek's first hard-R episode. Make it extremely explicit. Make that Lower Decks "Naked Time" look like nothing. Then the next episode is just them all being awkward as fuck and trying to get back to some kind of normal. Christine is chill as fuck. Pike is near catatonic. Spock is curled up on the floor of a cupboard on deck 11. Una has ejected herself into space.

    I want to see a flashback episode featuring Nhan.

    I'm guessing that she was La'an's predecessor as chief of security. So there's lots of things they can do there.

    And give it some oomph. Don't just make it a Nhan sequitur. :D

    I wouldn’t mind seeing Nhan interact with the Sheliak.

    I have yet another pitch for a special episode, this one that just popped into my head as I woke up. And its inspired by the Legacy characters for S3 thread.

    The Enterprise visits a dying Travis Mayweather has been working with the Phloxes to get justice for Hoshi Sato and the other victims of the Tarsus IV incident. And among the hero worship for the NX-01 from the crew, La’an investigates and questions the survivors (Kirk, Kevin Riley, Thomas Leighton, and a few other survivors) and Karidian Company of Players. This could tie so much together - ENT, the events and developments of SNW S2, the legacy of the Eugenics Wars and Stavos Keniclius’s search for the perfect man - to the TOS ep “The Conscience of the King”. Could even work in a Dr. Boyce or Dr. Piper cameo. And even a Sulu cameo, who is compelled to explore becoming a pilot by the dying Mayweather.

    I once had a bizarre dream they did a Korean version of Star Trek, starring a chubby Captain Sulu and they were all wearing blue versions of the Wrath of Khan uniforms.

    Beach episode. Pike in short-shorts, Spock wearing goofy sandals, Sam Kirk slathered head to toe in sunscreen, La'an's afraid of the ocean, Mudd sipping jippers on a beach but not actually involved in the plot etc...

    It might be interesting to see the SNW Enterprise and crew get bumped back in time to the Earth/Romulan War and have to try to not change history a la "The Final Countdown".

    Seems to me Pike should be chef, since his role on the show has been largely reduced to cooking for his officers and ship's guests in S2. ;)

    EDIT: This whole thread is answering the question posed by that other thread: "Should the fans be allowed to write the show." The answer is clearly a resounding, thunderous NO! :guffaw:

    Navy blue. They looked pretty cool. The set was Wrath of Khan Enterprise with some modern updates, but it was meant to be Excelsior.

    One of the most infamously expensive songs to license.

    So maybe do a special eppiside a year like Diff'rent Strokes used to do? Maybe a drug episide, a bulimia episode etc etc.(We can skip the bicycle shop episode) They can do it all late 70s early 80s style story telling. Lol

    Yes, those uniforms definitely lend themselves well to Navy blue.

    Springing off that odd moment in "The Cage" when we see some (presumably) off-duty crew members strolling down a corridor in beach attire?

    Whatever did happen to "Moondoggie and Gidget" as I like to think of them? :)
