"The Menagerie." They should have discovered a cure for Pike and gone back to rescue him.
Which episodes or movies deserved sequels?

I'm so relieved that that did not happen. 
An episode even slightly mentioning this rather large landmark looming in Enterprise's future would have made up for a lot of disappointment... skipping half a decade's worth for me in fact. Even given the cost of the CGI involved, the aftermath should have formed the basis of their series finale at the very least. Whatever was left in the budget used to briefly show flashbacks told by those crewmembers who survived to see the signing of the Federation charter.
Sure, that sounds downbeat... but no more than how badly "These are the Voyages..." left audiences feeling.

Okay for you.
Most of the Starfleet commodores and admirals we got to see were incompetent or jerks. Having a strong senior officer up there would have been nice.
Ans by the time of Star Trek III the Enterprise's unlikely escape to save Spock would have been more plausible with the help of a sympathetic big shot bending the rules.
I prefer my great bittersweet endings not to be spoiled by a tacked on 'happy ending', thank you.

I would've liked to have seen some follow up on Wesley / the Traveller and perhaps something explained what happened to Tin Man after that episode.
I still would have liked Q in one of the movies, but that's just because I have a complete lack of imagination for these things once I get fixated on a particular opinion.
Now that I think about it, I'm surprised Endgame (or End-gah-meh to you sushi-usion types) hasn't been mentioned yet. One of the primary complaints I see on this board, and one that I hold myself, is the lack of aftermath for the episode. The crew spent seven years full of ups and downs on the road, and all we see is them parking the car.
Agreed.
And the ENT being in the Romulan Wars and it being a highly decorated ship that eventually fell in battle. Either the battle that was so one sided for the Romulans that the fact the ENT and a small fleet faired at all and kicked some booty and thusly ralleyed the troops for them to go on to victory (my favorite however cheesey) or have it destroyed in the biggest battle of the War and turning the tide for the Humans to "win."
Also I would have liked to see some more of the Ent-B from Generations. Or heck even the adventures of Cpt. Sulu from STVI.
At the very least, the fate of the Enterprise B should be known, since it, the E and the J are the only ones we don't know their fate. The E we can accept, as it's the "current" one for lack of a better term. And the J is from the future. But the B we know nothing about, despite knowing the fates of its three predecessors and its next two successors. I would hope it wasn't destroyed, since that would make four out of seven Enterprises to be destroyed. That's starting to make the name cursed. But then, why would it be decommsioned since plenty of Excelsior class ships, hell even the Excelsior itself were still in service late into the 24th century?
I would like to know what consequences, if any, Picard had to pay for the decision that he made in "Suddenly Human".
Picard returned the human boy, Jono, back to the custody of his Talarian adoptive/kidnapping father. Jono was actually named Jeremiah Rossa, and he was the grandson of a Starfleet admiral.
There should have been hell to pay for Picard.
Picard's decision had a direct personal effect on an active duty Starfleet admiral. The admiral had expected her grandson to be returned to her custody. In addition, as far as I could tell, the boy, legally should have been returned to his biological family, in any case. I doubt the admiral would have taken Picard's decision lying down. And she seemed like she would be in a position to make Picard pay a heavy price, as he should have.
I am not necessarily saying that this episode deserves a follow-up; maybe something more like an epilogue.

Per the board rules, we generally discourage reviving threads that haven't been posted in for more than a year. Thus I'm closing this one.
