[QUOTE="Darth K'Trava, post: 2197325, member: 20587"] Yeah. Make it seem more realistically possible. And not drown it in technobabble like TNG was sooo fond of doing. They should more closely follow some sort of "military procedure" if they're gonna be portrayed as a military organization (Starfleet). Show they're different than the civilians. Maybe they should go back to what made Trek [i]Trek[/i]. Go back to the classic formula and make it more comprehensive for the modern era. Classic Trek worked so well with the "modern day" issues being modified to look like an "alien issue" but you could tell it was their way of addressing the issues of the time period. Make well-liked, well-fleshed-out characters that people would LOVE to see week after week. Have some sort of continuity from episode to episode or season to season. Show some growth between the characters. Show what makes them "tick". Show why we WANT to watch them evolve each week. And make the humans HUMAN, and the aliens, ALIEN. Not just a bunch of humans with funky face makeup! [/QUOTE]
