Why Star Trek NEEDS To Explore The Lost Era

They need to make a series based on the Enterprise-B, and each episode gets released on a Tuesday

I would love to see a Captain's Table series; each season could have four different captains swapping stories, each captain taking turns telling 4-5 stories apiece, all the stories set during the Lost Era...

Fairly new sub, but Trek fan for 50+ years. Tremendous content, fascinating angles, fun and informative. Thank you!

Since I was a kid I’ve always thought a Trek Anthology series would be a winner - individual, self contained bottle episodes jumping from ship to ship, species to species, even era to era… This would be perfect for the Lost Era. A Trek ❤️☠️🤖

I would love to have a season devoted to the Enterprise B, and then a season for the Enterprise C.

Tim Russ (Tuvok) is still active, directing films. And he's a great actor and director. And his granddaughter is an actor, too.

I think the problem with a lot of these storylines is that we know exactly what the outcome is; we know who survives and who doesn't, who gets maimed, what the political consequences are, etc. because they're all big historical events. I think doing things like Cpt. Uhura or Cpt. Sulu where they have more freedom to write whatever they want works way better.

Leon DeGrace was Patrick Stewarts character in Excalibur.

Not sure how I would feel about this, some franchises actually did damage to there series when they attempted to make a movie or series based on an event that was normally just alluded to or talked about later on.

I would love to see a young picard time serving on the stargazer and then taken command. I think it would be a good series shich could last about 2 or 3 seasons.

Personally i would like to see stories between the Enterprise B and c, how Starfleet tech and clothes change over that time.

I've said for a while now that it would be smart to make an anthology series akin to the upcoming Tales of the Walking Dead series, based not on one crew but each episode a standalone story revisiting past characters, telling stories untold or not followed up on main shows. There are so many possibilities, exploring the fates of DS9 and Voyager characters, furthering the Enterprise show that was cut short as it was getting going, exploring past recurring characters such as Ro Laren, Shran, the fate of the Founders, Hugh prior to his appearance in Picard, how Romulus came to be destroyed, the earlier Romulan war which would have been a season 5 Enterprise arc had the show been renewed, there is SO much canon that can be mined for television that I hope this idea will be picked up while we still have surviving cast members able to reprise their roles.

I think that an animated anthology might fare better. It would be much less strenuous for the older legacy cast, and they wouldn't have to build sets.

The xindi arc was what brought people back to enterprise, including me. I enjoy season long arcs if they pick the right ones

Unless your fandom includes sorting out continuity, then Trek can take place during ANY era, so long as it has people that can tell a good story.

The Captain Worf series should never happen. It was never set up or even hinted at. A series set after DS9 showing Worf helping Martok rebuild The Empire after the Dominion war would be superb.

I just got the Eaglemoss Cerritos and in the booket there's and interview with Mike McMahan where he said he was told he could pick where he was most comfortable in the timeline to set Lower Decks. So if a new show creator wanted to set something in the lost era they probably could. I think an animated show might work too especially if they wanted to do a Sulu show without having to exhaust George Takei.

I've had ideas about this Era for about 20 years now back when I was an active member on the TrekBBS Forum. My idea was to dive into the Romulan War which ultimately gave us Worf.

I think a great thing would be Star Trek Klingons a series from the Klingon point of view. The first episode could start from Praxis so it would be during this lost time period. They could expound in the augments and problems with the Romulans. They could introduce new species from their borders that are not with the Romulans or Federation. But they need to make them look and speak English like in the Next Gen time frame.

Don't forget Gary Seven & Teri Garr's characters in the original ST. It was supposedly a pilot for a 60s series on Earth, but with an alien race supporting them.
