Forum:New Star Trek Episodes
Given that the Star Trek franshise is pretty much dead and won't be coming back, why not write new episodes for it. That is continue with the original storylines of the different Star Trek series, and write new episodes for it. They would be organized on a season schedule, etc, etc.

This would be a collabrative effort of the Star Trek community, like the many pages here. What do you think? (if there isn't such a project already underway) Detapa
 * This isn't what Memory Alpha, or the forums here are for. I would suggest you go to TrekBBS, or the Star Trek: Expanded Universe wikia. Memory Alpha is strictly canon, and these forums are here to discuss the operation of MA. I would also remind you that the franchise is not dead, there is Star Trek XI coming out in 2008, and that I would not count out another series. It could be a long time, but it is way to soon to declare it "not coming back". Look how long it was between TOS and TNG. --OuroborosCobra talk |undefined  19:01, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for your reply and the info. Well, what I meant to say is "won't be coming back" anytime soon. The difference between TOS and TNG comeback and the current situation is that the Enterprise series and Nemesis movies has done considerable damage. Detapa
 * Only to the minds of quasi-fans who like to be spoon-fed their canon. Wait... I didn't say that, did I? :-P In any case, Enterprise has hardly done any damage to anything (Voyager did tons more, if you wanna make this a "canon"/"story-telling" debate), it just got low ratings because people refused to give it a chance past its first season... hence, it was cancelled after a shorter-than-deserved run, but has been steadily picking up a larger fanbase. Sound familiar? :) --From Andoria with Love 01:17, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

Talking about ratings, where can I find a complete list of ratings (the Neilson kind) for each series? I've found bits and pieces here and there, but not a complete list. Detapa 21:55, 24 October 2006 (UTC)
