        Two shapely legs is both popular and inexpensive.

            Put the show to sleep for a decade, then continue on the same trend as Enterprise S4

            I.e. get rid of all the existing staff and use lauded Trek fiction and non-Trek sci-fi writers and producers to write and produce the episodes and give us interesting storylines (original yet firmly founded in the incredibly rich Trek universe) and interesting character developments and relationships (that go beyond showcasing tits&ass).

            Theme, premise and character names/genders/species are not really all that important. Good writing is...

              I think Ted is on to something here. Lets throw B5 and DS9 in a blender. Throw in some hot chicks and a lot of FX and hey presto! One bad ass show to go!

                As in, "I thought he had three legs, but it turns out the big one is a sexual organ."?

                  Anyway, a bit more skin (female preferably) wouldnt hurt the cause. But what it really need is a whole new concept. Like, in the beginning, Star Trek hat the transporters. Then came the holodeck. Now it needs something new...

                    Real physics.
                    no treknobabble.
                    real conflicts.

                      It harps on and on and on about "my soul". Star Trek is supposed to agnostic at worst and atheistic at best. No "my soul", please.

                      I want a traditional grand orchestral theme, not metal/punk and most definitely not techno.

                      Unless, of course...

                          Give JMS a shot.

                            I have a book entitled "The physics of Star Trek" which, in detail, describes Trek things using actual physics. And might I add that such a show would be boring indeed

                              Also it would be boring to have that outside-view of some great space battle, but nothing is to be heard... Real Physics suck

                                Yeah, those who want real physics can go and watch a documentary about Einstein
