I want a Star Trek Arrowverse. Like four or five shows happening at the same time all exploring different plots and genres and parts of space/time and that will crossover regularly with each other in big and small ways and where poo poo that happens on one show would have appreciable consequences on the others. TNG/DS9/VOY got close to this, but the overlap wasn't that well done because TNG ended shortly after DS9 started, and then Voyager was too far away to have any meaningful crossovers with DS9 other than Quark showing up in the pilot and then Barkley and Troi showing up occasionally in the later seasons because they were the only ones they could afford or something. The next closest thing that came to that on TV was the Stargate TV universe, where SG-1 fed into and crossed over with Atlantis, and then elements of both Atlantis and SG-1 cropped up on SG-U on the reg until MGM literally ran out of money and it and SyFy killed the franchise in a blind stupid panic.

The show focuses on a smaller frigate, like five people total not a ship of the line, and their various ongoing missions which tend to involve lots of PR work, security, and dealing with the Maquis and other anti-communist factions. No great overarching mega-narrative, no "this will decide the fate of the galaxy" just a small group doing their tour of duty and rarely getting into active gunfights. Ship in the bottle episode: Captain and [vip]'s shuttle craft is damaged and presumed lost in enemy territory. VIP is freaking out that theyre going to die while captain calmly tells the VIP the story of why the captain personally chose their second in command to be on this ship. At the end it culminates in revealing they were in the same class, the captain just graduated higher in the grade because they both took the kyobashi maru exam, with the captain leaving the kyobashi to their fate and the second in command exhausting every option to rescue them, just as the captain and [vip] are rescued by the second in command who never stopped searching.

BoldFrankensteinMir posted:My DREAMTREK is about the ship tasked with revisiting all the most dangerous poo poo all the other Treks discovered for basic follow-ups that any competent organization should be doing. I've always liked the headcanon of "Kirk's List", just a big star map of super-classified coordinates that correspond to all the evil gas monsters and time portal rocks and Billy Mumys the original Enterprise discovered and then abandoned. Along these lines but more focused, I've always wanted a follow-up mission to the Dyson sphere they found in TNG. There could always be isolated pockets of survivors, advanced alien tech of any sort you could imagine, it would be nearly limitless in itself.

I had a Star Trek pitch way back when, and I still like it so there. One line pitch: rag-tag bunch of misfits, the failures of the Federation, on an old falling-apart ship sent on a make-work mission somehow end up doing great things. Longer pitch: The ship is sent on a mission to investigate a newly-discovered extinct precursor rac ein a barely-explored sector of the galaxy. The mission isn't high priority though, so they send the worst ship with the worst crew and hope for the best. The captain: He used to be a prodigy back in the academy and everyone thought he'd be super amazing, but during a training mission something strange happened and since then he's become a complete goofball. Accomplishes enough to not get fired, but weird enough to be a pain in the rear end for his superiors. The event is kept mysterious but was connected with the precursor aliens somehow. The second-in-command: A Klingon pacifist and philosopher. Doubles as the crew psychologist. The security chief: The actual Baron Munchausen sent forward in time, or so he claims. He's apparently managed to bullshit his way onto this job. There's a running bet amongst the crew on if he's insane, lying, or the actual baron. The science officer: A complete failure of a vulcan. She tries to appear logical and emotionless, but she's got anger issues, takes drugs, has a gambling problem, etc. Her girlfriend is an Orion nurse who is religious. There's a running joke that no one can remember what her religion is and she messes with the crew about it all the time. Chief engineer: Not sure what races/sex/etc, but definitely a giant nerd who loves old tech and was chosen because they're the only one able to udnerstand the old patched-together mess that is the ship. The series is mostly episodic shenanigans with a few episodes advancing the mains tory of the precursors from time to time. Lots of shenanigans, but also moments where the crew manage to come together and save the day. Irresponsible Captain Tylor is definitely an influence.

The crew is sent to investigate accidents at a remote Vulcan research facility that have culminated in the death of the head researcher. Upon arriving they find the entire base bizzarre, producing seemingly nothing of value and all research pure computation that is classified over their heads. The vulcans at the base are friendly, but the crew slowly begins to realize they are members of a cult group that predates human-Vulcan contact who espouse a belief that they must develop more and more complext mathematical models to prove they are always make the best decision for all vulcans. At the episode end, the crew realizes this faction was one of many that influenced the Vulcans decision to break first contact protocol on humans to uplift them, arguing that uplifted humans could be the might vulcans needed to prosper. In turn, the head researcher died of natural causes and this whole ruse was an elaborate and covert ritual way for this cult to test and then communicate back to the federation they still approve of their decisions.

I’d make a show set on the Enterprise-J or another Universe class ship because I’ve unironically come to love its design over the 20-ish years since its debut and I love how much it makes nerds irrationally angry when you remind them it exists. gently caress, ANY show I’d make I would make sure to go out of my way to make Star Trek nerds piss blood with rage because they all suck and are awful.

Aglet56 posted:i like it yeah, pretty sound overall if you were to do a war-heavy trek the ethical/moral issues at stake when someone wants to come and kick over your delicate utopia are those you'd want to thoughtfully focus on to maintain the trek spirit, especially in contrast to just focusing on the spectacle/thrill/dread of war and disappearing into the spirit of straight military scifi

hard counter posted:yeah, pretty sound overall thank you. i believe that trek should only explore war as it explores ethical conduct in wartime situations (where war should absolutely be a last resort and, imho, the federation should absolutely never ever ever ever be the instigator*) * this is because, despite what some people might think from my Hot Takes, the federation is GOOD and represents the GOOD that society and civilization and etc is capable of. perhaps some PEOPLE can fail "the federation" and what it stands for in whatever capacity they represent the Federation, but the Federation ITSELF is just, and good anyone who tries to corrupt the federation, should be shown to be wrong, and the federation should be shown to be its most powerful when it ultimately chooses to be ethical even under the greatest duress

The episode involves helping pursue an escaped criminal on a planet the federation want to bring into the fold but is officially neutral. The species of the planet are evolved from speed hunters and rub against what they perceive as slow humans both physically and the beaucracy humans love. Quickly it becomes a race to track down the escapee with the federation crew forced to work on their own after multiple times the federation gets near the eacapee only to have him sprint away from their slower moving away lead officer. At the end of the episode, the away lead on foot catches up with the criminal who the leaders of the planet have written off as escaped. The escaped criminal, completely exhausted, is unable to mount even token resistance and the lead officer captures him without a struggle. The captain explains to his utterly dumbfounded counterpart from the species military that humans evolved from a very different species, one that used persistance to hunt. The now terrified species military officers make a report to their leadership, realizing that the federation helping them, here along with their other projects and treaties, was probably just another piece of the hunt of bringing their world into the federation and that his species isnt able to see that its happening to them.

The crew attend a quotillian hosted by a governor of an independent world, for the purpose of supporting their ambassador staff trying to woo the governor to the federation. The episode consists mostly of short chats with the governor, whose only other family is noted as too ill to attend, showing them to be an affable, deeply caring person who truly wants the best for their world interspersed, some of the crew having brief conversations with a ranking Maquis who is also at the party. Over the course of the episode and interactions, the Maquis's backstory as a former starfleet captain turned Maquis defector to now prominent Maquis leadership is established. At the end of the episode the Maquis seems to taunt the captain of tv crew, stating the ambassador will fail and this world will only grow closer to the maquis. When asked why the Maquis states only because the Maquis knows what it is like to make that decision. The end of the episode is a debrief sometime later with the ambassador noting the overture has failed and the governor remains neutral while intel points to massive shipments to maquis aligned factions. The crew uncovers who the Maquis captain was, finding they defected in order to secure illegal gene treatments for their sick child. The captain ruminates if they could, therefore, have ever won the governor over to the federation while the second in command points out that a world totally at the whims of someone who will place their own happiness over all others isnt truly ready to be in the federation.
