Star Trek: Nights
Extra sexy late night spin-off. Also Wesley starts a detective agency that investigates ghosts or something. Bitchin’ squealin’ sax based theme song.
Star Trek: Mornings
Mostly the crew eating breakfast.
Star Trek: Tales from the Holodeck
Each episode features a new group of people immersed in intrigue and mystery within the holodeck. Moriarty and Genghis Khan escape so many times — so, so many times.
“Observe…mathematic proof it’s f–king impossible to keep me on the holodeck.”
Star Trek: Wesley Crusher: Teenager F–k Machine
The pilot’s already written.
Star Trek: Gamma Squad
Hey, remember the Gamma Quadrant? That part of the galaxy beyond the wormhole in Deep Space 9 that seemed really interesting, but was never fully fleshed out before the show ended? How ’bout we go back there? Also, the name of the show would be the same as this blog! See what I did there?
Star Trek: Fall of the Federation
This one would take place hundreds of years after all the other versions of Star Trek, and feature a Federation on the verge of collapse. This is rumored to be the actual idea they’re going with for a new Trek show, so I’m including it here so it looks like I came up with it first if it happens.
Star Trek: The Spacening (alternate title: Hell on Thrusters)
Star Trek goes to AMC, the place where story matters. Since the creators of Mad Men and Breaking Bad are already busy making those shows, AMC execs roll up their sleeves and get hands-on with Star Trek, making sure the show is really self-serious and full of exciting twists and turns (that may or may not make any sense). The writing team will completely change eight times during the first season to keep things fresh.
Star Trek: Voyager: Reckoning
Every episode consists of the crew of the Voyager being killed one by one in the most spectacularly gory manner possible. Then the ship blows up.
Kill ‘em all. The one on the left with the big boobs can go last.
Star Trek: Enterprise: Reckoning
I think you get the idea.
Star Trek: Hey, What Happened in the Century Between the Original Series and The Next Generation?
Seriously, I want to know.
Star Trek: Redneck Alien Hoedown!
Everyone seems to be totally into gawking at rednecks on TV these days — I mean, there’s an actual real show on TV right now called Hillbilly Handfishin’. Really. Time for Trek to hop on this sure to be long-lived trend and give us a look at some of the more out of the way planets in the galaxy. You know, the ones where everybody’s forehead ridges are just a little uh, off due to inbreeding.
Star Trek: The New Animated Series
Combining the quality production of the 70s Filmation show, with all the sassy pop-culture references you expect from a modern cartoon.
Matching the quality of the original show will be difficult, but not impossible.
Star Trek: Picard Loves Riker
They do, and it’s beautiful.
Star Trek: The Red Shirt Diaries
Everyone episode features a bunch of red shirts just hardcore humpin’ it up, before, I dunno, they’re all killed by a tar monster or fall in a hole or something. David Duchovny narrates.
Star Trek: Some Joss Whedon Thing
Hey, they let the other nerd-favorite writer do the movies, why not let Whedon do the TV show? You never knew technobabble could be so sassy and clever. Plus Bones has to end sometime, which means David Boreanaz is going to need something to do again.
Star Trek: Babies
You can’t call yourself a truly successful franchise if you’ve never been baby-ified. Data as a pile of half-finished circuit boards would be particularly adorable.
How about you guys? Do you have any ideas for a new Trek TV series? Obviously your ideas aren’t going to be as awesome as mine, but leave a comment anyways.

Depends on if we’re being serious or not.
Star Trek: The Eugenics Wars – Fuck that book series, set it in our modern day and start a war with a race of super-clones, revealing that the technology involved was left behind like 1,000 times thanks to the various crews’ time-travel boners. (Chekov left a fucking communicator and PHASER in 1986 San Francisco, for instance. Maybe…dundundun…they were acquired by Steve Jobs?)
Star Trek: The Bureau – A lot of shit potentially going on behind the scenes in the original universe. Basically a Federation CIA which works in and out of various familiar original series plots. For instance, did Ceti Alpha VI really “blow up” by accident or was it a mostly successful attempt to erase Khan (see above)?
Star Trek: The Corgi Generation – Basically Star Trek with Corgis, overdubbed by famous actors. Or monkeys, I’m negotiable.
Re: The Bureau: Sounds a lot like Section 31 from DS9. Very shady organization that came too late in the series
I wanna tell you a great news .My best friend ,she just has announced her wedding with a millionaire man who is a celebrity !they met via Million’aireconnecT. Co`M ..it is the largest and best club for celebrity and their admirers to chat online.You do not have to be rich or famous. ,but you can meet one , It’s worthy trying,Maybe you wanna check it out or tell your friends!
lker
Like many others geeks I’ve had an idea about it too.
If we want to do a new series, set it about 50 years after the TNG/DS9/VOY era and make it a little more (and I know a million people have said this before) like BSG in tone (and use less lens flare). Use a few of the production queues that made it seem so dramatic. Story-wise, set it after some great galaxy-changing event that no one likes to talk about (a final throwdown with the Borg perhaps) and then make the long-lasting story arc of the series be about how the show is trying to go from “dark and gritty” to reclaiming the original ideas and hopes of the Federation.
Like I said, I’ve thought about it a lot.
I can’t remember if it was an episode of TNG or Deep Space 9–I think it was DS9–but there was a plot where an alien was on the run in some sort of hunting game, and O’Brien helped him out. I was convinced that it was a pilot for a new series–O’Brien and this alien on the run from hunters. It would’ve been a great concept, breaking away from the focus on the Federation and spiffy spaceships, and getting into the gritty underbelly of the Star Trek universe.
Do some kind of show kinda like ‘The Unit’, but in the DS9 universe. Compartmentalized elements, Special Forces shit, take em through selection, training, and deployment. Might be kinda cool.
I like Porkys’ ‘Bureau’ idea.
@ The Evil Twin:
Give this a whirl:

71 really good episodes of fanfic written as filmable scripts.
I always had an idea of a spin off called ‘Wes Crusher and the temporal Corps’ Him fighting a time war and creating the Corps n’ shit…
Star Trek: No More Fat People
Star Trek: Intergalactic Planetary
Star Trek: Found Powdered Water, Don’t Know What To Add
Star Trek: Campfire

Raisa Spring Break Hot Tub Party
Federation Family Feud
Steve Harvey would look good with Klingon ridges.
they should go all Blake’s 7/A-Team with it and have a small ship on the run from the federation AND the Klingons AND everyone else because they are wrongly accused of a horrible crime.
a space crime.
and whilst they continue to try to clear their names, they also help out people (and aliens, i suppose) in need.
A-Team. With Dirk Benedict as Captain. And Dwight Schultz playing both Reg Barclay and Howlin’ Mad Murdock.
Star Trek: Christina Hendricks + Star Trek Nights. I would even watch if they remade Sub Rosa a.k.a. Beverly Gets Wax Fever.
seconding the “Just More Deep Space 9″ idea
Plus six million
The fact DS9 never got a movie is one of the greatest injustices to befall the world during my lifetime.
Right there with ya!
+1 Defiant
I’d like to see a series that deals with those creepy mind-control aliens introduced in the first or second season. The ones that took over top Federation people and sent off a beacon into an unexplored sector of space as a cliffhanger.
how about an adam reed/h. john benjamin star trek? archers in space
My number one choice for a new Trek show would be a Trek comedy series. Not like a crappy sitcom but something shot in the single-camera format like The Office, 30 Rock, Curb Your Enthusiasm, Arrested Development style.
Number 2 choice is a Star Trek: Star Fleet Medical show. It could be like House but with futuristic diseases and lots of lens flarez.
Star Trek – Space Time
A single agent is sent back in time to make sure all the left tech from previous time travel episodes is policed up or destroyed.
Star Trek – Black Ops
pretty self explanatory
Star Trek – The Crusher Chronicles
Wesley uses his wicked-awesome Traveler powers to explore the outer reaches of the galaxy. Added Bonus: New character known as “The Rod,” played by Rod Roddenberry, serves as his sidekick (which would work, as he and Wheaton are real-life friends), and they seduce all kinds of new alien women – much to the chagrin of Robin Leifler, who tags along because she’s still stuck on the Federation’s King of the Geeks…
Star Trek – Fall of the Federation has already been done – Andromeda was meant to be the end and rebirth of the Federation, but had to have the names of races changed due to the lawyers…
Star Trek: The Wire
+1
I suppose “Keeping Up with the Cardassians” is a little too obvious.
“Tales from the Holodeck” might make an interesting limited-run series. At the very end, Picard exits the program and we see standing in his place a Borg drone played by Keanu Reeves; zoom out to reveal that the holodeck is in a Borg cube.
Star Trek: Shut up Wesley
24 hour long episodes of nothing but the three greatest words in TV history
I always wanted an odd couple type sitcom with Odo and Quark
nog from ds9 as helmsman. data from tng as captian. sulu from os as weapons officer. la forge from tng as chief engineer. bashier from ds9 as cheif medical officer. cheif obrian from tng/ds9 as transporter cheif.
also like more ds9
I’m a little late to the party but hey…. My idea for a new series would take place about 15 years after Voyager comes home. It would feature a new Enterprise-E crew, completely of new actors. Actors from the older series would only have a minor, perhaps sometimes recurring roles. Picard has retired years earlier as a wine farmer. Riker was Captain of the Enterprise-E but is being promoted to Admiral and gives up his captain’s chair for the new crew to come aboard. Data is dead/destroyed. (Can’t age him forever). Janeway is an admiral. Laforge is captain of his own ship. So is Harry Kim. In these roles they may every so often appear in the series. Miles O’Brien is still an instructor at the academy and lives in San Francisco. Molly O’Brien is 25 years of age and has graduated from the Academy as an Ensign Engineer, and is posted to a Federation ship. She could be posted on the Enterprise-E and be promoted to Lieutenant.
The new series would depict a Universe where the Neutral Zone no longer exists. After the destruction of Romulus, the Romulan empire has splintered in to factions. Some are peaceful and are focusing on reunification with the Vulcans, others are true to the old ways. The Romulans are scattered, and are trying to hold on to an ideal that has faded. In any case they are no big military threat and their bark is a lot worse than their bite.
The Klingons are the major power in the region. A huge military force that they continued to build up after the dominion war. After several changes in the high council, the Klingon Empire is at peace, yet at a “cold war” with the Federation. They are by far the most powerful military force in the region, with the Federation as its biggest rival. War is a possibility for sure.
The Cardassians are still rebuilding. Although still considered dangerous, they are being kept in their place by the Klingons who have frequent skirmishes with them.
Bajor has officially joined the Federation, and Bajoran officers will be present in the new series.
The Ferengi have grown to be a lot more powerful. Known to be selling weapons to both the Cardassians and Romulans, they have made a fortune. Although they do not believe in participating in war – as there is no profit in that – they will happily see to it that other groups will fight each other, obviously selling weapons and resources to both. Nog is a Federation Captain however, and his presence in Federation has inspired other independent Ferengi to join Starfleet, although they are few in number.
The Borg are not as dead as depicted in Voyager’s last episode and are gaining strength. They are in frequent battles with the Hirogen, who are have come to view them as the Ultimate Prey. They fight at the very edges of known space, and it will be hard to reach them. Stories of the Hirogen/Borg war only come from Hirogen ships that manage to reach areas known to the Federation.
With that said, the mission of Enterprise-E will be the exploration of the Beta quadrant on a “5 year mission” type deal. Now that the Romulan Empire has crumbled, and the Neutral Zone is gone, access to the BACK side of the Romulan Empire is now available to the Federation. New worlds to explore that often have a familiarity with the Romulans but have not yet met either Federation or Klingon species. The Klingons have also begun exploring beyond the Romulan Empire. Being on Cold War terms with the Klingons, this can lead to both skirmishes, as well as un-easy alliances to accomplish something.
Worf, being an ambassador to the Klingon Empire, has been the only person able to prevent an all-out war between the Federation and the Klingons. If the series ever need a sudden change of plots, Worf could be killed at the end of season 4, triggering an incident that would eventually lead to war.
Again, I think known actors/characters should really only play a MINOR role, and the Enterprise crew should be a complete new set of actors.
I think it more a problem that in 2012 there is no Gamification of this site.. I cant vote up or down the comments I feel for. shameful… for the first time I realise at once the importance of gamification and its application across the web from notional to critical… your still on Web 2.0.. the world is at gamification… this is similar to the fact that a series is woefully late.. but this may be because of the success of the last series still bringing in the cash from foreign Networks new to this genre or epiphany this tech view brings them.. I think this is more relevant to why we have not any new series. PS creators should open up to schools and build on storytelling from the suggestions/ competitions of the Young for new creative insight. This genre and actually this franchise isnt going to end in my lifetime.. that I guarantee.
