I can’t wait to put this on my shelf next to Enterprise S5-S7, Captain Worf, and Star Trek: Legacy.

Wasn’t Worf always a pipe dream.

Michael Dorn kept pitching it, but it was never going to happen.

@chiliedogg @themoken hopefully this won’t either.

I like Bakula in other media but loathed him as Archer.

chiliedogg@lemmy.world on 08 Aug 21:51 collapse

I’d watch it for the Beagle.

It wouldn’t be Porthos, but I’d learn to love D’Artagnan.

These days? Shit, you can’t swing a dead cat without hitting a new Star Trek property. I thought he had a chance tbh.

It’s too bad they’re all in paramounts streaming service which I’ll never pay for

Have you considered the pirate life?

panda_abyss@lemmy.ca on 08 Aug 22:55 collapse

I shouldn’t have to

SoGrumpy@lemmy.ml on 09 Aug 10:55 collapse

You shouldn’t have to, but where there’s a will . . .

panda_abyss@lemmy.ca on 09 Aug 16:06 collapse

Yes, it’s been a long time getting from there to here, but I might have to unfurl my sails again.

themoken@startrek.website on 08 Aug 21:12 next collapse

Yeah, they all are, even though they probably would have been fun. I’d watch Bakula as Archer again too, I just think there’s zero percent chance it would be greenlit.

Repelle@lemmy.world on 08 Aug 21:49 collapse

I didn’t think it would happen, but I really wanted it to. Michael Dorn was so passionate about it, and i love the character

No room for “Star Trek Year One”?

princessnorah@lemmy.blahaj.zone on 09 Aug 16:35 next collapse

Star Trek: Legacy the video game? Didn’t they make that…

Kirk@startrek.website on 09 Aug 20:18 collapse

Don’t forget the Section 31 movie! Can you believe how insane it would have been if they actually made that?

AngryRobot@lemmy.world on 10 Aug 01:36 collapse

As insane as it would have been to have an Indiana Jones 4. It’s weird how they went from 3 straight to 5…

brucethemoose@lemmy.world on 08 Aug 21:15 next collapse

Mmmmmmmm…

What about continuing the Dominion thread? I am wide open to ideas there, but shapeshifters would both be awesome in modern CG and awesome as officers.

floo@retrolemmy.com on 08 Aug 21:24 next collapse

As long as Kurtzman isn’t involved…

ValueSubtracted@startrek.website on 08 Aug 21:26 next collapse

I’m under no illusions that this will actually happen - it’s just nice to know he’s interested.

ValueSubtracted@startrek.website on 09 Aug 03:09 collapse

Upon further consideration…

“Federation political drama” is a popular dream show for a lot of people. I’ve never been one of those people - the Federation is built on decades of contradictory nonsense, and anything they came up with would be under immense pressure to be a perfect political system - something that’s never been designed IRL, and probably never will.

But…setting it in the very early days of the UFP, as the characters themselves are trying to figure it out? There might actually be something there…

usernamefactory@lemmy.ca on 09 Aug 04:26 collapse

I’m one of those people, and really appreciated the little bits of political wrangling we saw in the last half of Discovery. And while I was never a fan of Enterprise, Bakula could kill it as the president of the Federation in its formative years. I love this idea.

TWeaK@lemmy.today on 08 Aug 21:29 next collapse

It’s been a loooong time…

mycodesucks@lemmy.world on 09 Aug 01:34 collapse

…gettin’ from there to here?

jacobrealo@tenforward.social on 08 Aug 22:26 next collapse

@ValueSubtracted I gotta see if he discusses this on Sunday.

We could have a convoluted retcon about Trip Tucker surviving somehow, but I kind of just want them to pull a Shaxs; someone brings it up and Tucker says, “We don’t talk about that.”
