Thank Goodness For Daydreaming Because The Fact That This DOES NOT Exist Is A Crime.

thank goodness for daydreaming because the fact that this DOES NOT exist is a crime.

I really wish that instead of rehashing the same characters AGAIN that Paramount would give us a TOS-verse spin-off sequel Star Trek: Nepotism where the New Triumvirate(tm) are Spirk's adopted daughter Captain Saavik & First Officer Joanna McCoy (they have a painfully homoerotic tension at all times) feat. CMO David Marcus (reconned back to life).

Demora Sulu is helmswoman and her father is very proud. Pavel's son, Anton Chekov the career politician, who gets like one (1) canon mention, is a recurring character who keeps on getting stuck on the boat during the shenanigans for ever more contrived reasons.

Uhura's protégé is on comms & he fills McCoy's former roll as The Voice of Reason and Distress. He can always be seen shaking his head in the background of every shot on the bridge desperately muttering "Inshallah we will survive this."

The chief engineer is a flaming Irish redhead, Siobhan, who is of no relation to Scotty despite their identical auras and is the only non-nepobaby among the ranking officers but everyone thinks she's his niece no matter how many times she insists she has no idea who tf they're talking about and that Ireland and Scotland are two different places.

The boat isn't even the flagship, it's like the USS Cerritos doing minor missions at best that they still manage to nearly botch 50% of the time. The Original Cast are phoned in for air support on occasion for nostalgia bait like:

Saavik, clearly distressed over something stupid: such challenges we face in the darkness...what would my fathers say? Anton, the reasonable one: Dude just call them, I saw them in San Fran like. Last week. They're probably doing luxury gay space pilates right now. Saavik, solemnly: ...sometimes I can still hear their voices....
