Okay, let’s start off by saying that Insurrection is one of the most on point Star Trek story there ever was.

It starts off what the concept that this mineral, that can change the Federation forever: a literal Fountain of Youth. But, the Navi Baku aliens are living on the planet and if we want this amazing revolutionary technology, we have to move out of the way. It’s for the greater good.

So the Federation joins up with the RDA The Sona to harvest the unobtanium Metaphatic Radiation particles from the planet. Our protagonist, Jake Sully aka Jean Luc Picard learns about the natives on the planet on their secrets. He even falls in love with the local hottie Neyteri Anij. He eventually sees how taking away the magical rocks, that the locals will die. He then decides to take up arms against the invading military that he was once a part of and saves the Navi Baku.

Oh and he gets laid, but everyone agrees it’s kind of weird.

Anyways, shoutout to James Cameron for making this movie. Again.

In no particular order, here are quick pitches for TV shows that I think are feasible.

## Star Trek: Assignment Earth ##

Commander Jack Ransom and Una Chin Riley have been selected by the Temporal Agency as their operatives in 1960’s Los Angeles, Earth. (Light hearted sci-fi, like Warehouse 13 or Eureka)

## Star Trek: House of Kah’less ##

Anime show that focuses on the Klingons. The show follows a young Kah’less and his rise to power. Honor, glory, bloodline. (Any anime show you can think of could be this)

## Star Trek: Alliance ##

31st Century, Deep in the Beta Quadrant, a new Federation Spacedock is being commissioned. It will help usher in new species and worlds. Thousands of diplomats and visitors are invited to the ceremony. Then The Burn happens, trapping all of them in one system, cutoff from the rest of the galaxy. (Dystopian, political. Battlestar Galactica vibes. Plus I think it would be cool if each season jumped ahead a few years, like For All Mankind)

## Star Trek: Allegiance ##

22nd Century - In the aftermath of the Romulan War, the two powers have retreated to their parts of the quadrants. On board the USS Providence, two undercover Tal Shiar operatives have been cut off from their handlers. Having already spent two years disguised as human Starfleet officers, the spies must now come to terms that this is their life now. (The Americans, but in space)

## Star Trek: Occupation ##

Follows the story of a young Kira Nerys as she joins the Bajoran Resistance and comes face to face with how far she will compromise her values and faith for freedom. (Andor, Andor, Andor)

## Star Trek: Dominion Wars ##

Animated half hour adventures following the USS Resolute a re-commissioned Excelsior-class cruiser during The Dominion Wars. (Yes, it just Clone Wars as Star Trek)

## Star Trek: Odyssey ##

At the dawn of the 22nd Centruy, Earth wants to expand humanity to the stars. Follow two families and their stories on the Colonization Convoy as it heads deeper into the Alpha Quadrant looking for new worlds to habitat. (Lost In Space vibes, family focused adventure show)

## Star Trek: Sarek ##

Sarek has received his first official assignment from the Vulcan High Command; Earth. Follow his story as he longs to unite Humans and Vulcans through diplomacy and common goals. (Star Treks version of Shogun)

## Star Trek: The Syndicate ##
Follows the story of Starfleet Security officers and members of the Orion Syndicate in the M’Talas system. (It’s just The Wire, with phasers)

## Star Trek: Warp One ##

It’s just 10 years after First Contact. Earth is leaving behind the destruction of war and poverty, looking to join the stars. Follow the story of young tests pilots, representing their home countries as they go through the testing programs of the first warp engine. (Top Gun,
For All Mankind vibes)

Edit: goal of this post was to see if various television genres could be adapted to the Star Trek universe and how they could look. Usually this is done within episodes (spy episode, war episode, crime episode, etc…) and adapt them to series long concepts. The pitches are short and not thought much out past the pitch. Characters, story arcs, tone, that’s all figure out post pitch. 😁
