A bunch of people in pyjamas flying around at faster-than-light speeds? Seems like a gimmick to me...
Well fuck.... Now I want a muppet musical episode of Star Trek. It would work really good on Lower Decks. It could be some kind of anomaly that takes the crew of the Cerrito from 2D animations to live action puppets. And for some reason they give all exposition in song and dance.
Well idk, I actually enjoyed the musical episode but I think the big issue is that there's so few episodes per season the silly episodes really stand out.
First has to be campy…
If, if, it had to be done, I'd like to remind everyone that William Shatner and Tom Baker are both still with us.
But why though? What would this add to anything?
Borg Daleks?
Did they ever identify species 8469 that the borg are afraid of (I think that’s the number, didn’t look it up)?
I guess that’s maybe one thing they could do with it, if not..
Tho daleks don’t seem like a species the borg would fear, tbh..
Thanks for sharing but no thank you.
Not really a “wild idea”, as much as something a 12 year old would come up with.
Yeah…I thought a Robotech/Star Wars crossover would have been cool…when I was 12.
