Spoilers What other "special episodes" do you want to see on SNW?

I would not be surprised if Robert April’s middle name was going to be Tibrerius too

And Riker's

Anyway, it's actually a decently sci-fi "advancement of the species" kind of idea that humans would become comfortable enough with sex that it would be actually taught like you teach driving or manners.

Given how bad at it most of are when we're young, it sounds like a terrific idea to me.

I would love to see another crossover episode. The recent release with Kirk and Spock from OTOY has got me thinking about all sorts of possibilities, and it was a thread about a possible Enterprise animated series that got me thinking about this.

I would love to finally get some concrete facts about the Romulan War. Barring the approval of a TV movie ala Section 31, SNW seems to be the most likely place to get that. So, a crossover with Enterprise, with the season 5 refit, using OTOY tech to allow the original actors to play their characters presented at the same age they were 20 years ago, with a minimum of post-production cost.

A fanciful idea? Sure. But, why not?

For those of you unfamiliar with OTOY and their groundbreaking real-time digital mask technology, I present to you this footage of Robin Curtis shot earlier this year with the OTOY tech, shot completely in real time without any post-production work.

I can't say I'd hate the idea. Even just having the Enterprise crew as they are would be ok with me, but seeing a few brief moments from the Romulan War would be quite something.

it’s very doable to de-age actors by many decades as shown in Robin’s footage.

I'm still in shock after seeing that. You could've told me it was from the 80's, and I would've believed you.

Not necessarily a special episode, but I'd love a space monster episode in the vein of 'The Doomsday Machine' or 'The Immunity Syndrome'

Yes, I know I definitely saw someone here wanting a retro style episode, and I'm also all for it!

Now with "A space adventure hour" being released, this episode was certainly way more of ANOTHER type of "special episode":

Actors playing actors.
Specifically of the parody/meta commentary type.

But the real fucking kicker in regards to this thread - and I know I'm late here - is this one:
