Re: OT: Totally P!ssed off at UPN
That would be awesome. Remeber the episode of TNG where Riker spent some time on the Klingon ship. Why not do something like that? A star fleet officer on an extended exchange program tour of duty aboard a Klingon vessl. I'd watch that.

Re: OT: Totally P!ssed off at UPN
We need a series about Klingons.... Enough with these mambie pambie sissy boy federation types and their higher than thou moral values. I say to give us a good Klingon series.

or elaborate on the Terran Empire. None of this avoiding pre-warp civilisations. It's all about conquering them when they can't fight back. |

Re: OT: Totally P!ssed off at UPN
That makes alot of sense. After all, the Star Trek series was a perfect fit for its time. It fit the general outlook of the american TV-viewing public with just a bit of hippy preaching to improve some attitudes.
Nobody in the US wants that now. Give us the Klingon Empire. Give us the expanding Federation. Give us another Captain Kirk. "Do it right or we will come in and make you do it our way". "Yes we have a Prime Directive on the books but sometimes that just doesnt work so we bend it".
YES make it a show for OUR times.
DISCLAIMER: the above views are not my own but they were fun to type

Re: OT: Totally P!ssed off at UPN
I Say screw all that! give me a series about my Icaran Empire, brutal, uncompromising, with a drive to be the supreme Government no matter the cost, an empire based on the divine creation of man conquering the heathen Xeno filth, and bringing all the so called "star nations" under the sway of the Praetor!
Anyway  it would make a cool show wouldn't it?

Re: OT: Totally P!ssed off at UPN
Dictators and military conquests should not looked at with glee....
But it would make for good tv... maybe a mini series.
Down with Praetor.
Up with Consortium

Re: OT: Totally P!ssed off at UPN
They need to just hire a few of us to write a series for them.

You know what, no one has given thought to what UPN will replace enterprise with....
I have a brilliant idea! A Science Fiction Fantasy Reality Show.
