I saw an article about that today that was suggesting Gina Torres, Michelle Rodriguez, and Archie Panjabi would be good for it.

Got any ideas?

I think Matt Lanter would be great...

Always good to hear there is still interest in Star Trek, but I never pay to watch TV unless it is to buy a DVD set to own. If it is successful, then maybe it will come to mainstream.

It's odd that you should say that yet post a link that brings you to Amazon where you have to pay to view what you tried to watch at imdb.com.

What gives?

We met Robert April back in 1974 when he was about to retire,

however, the effects of traveling into the negative universe in "The Counter-Clock Incident" made him and his wife young again and gave them a chance to live their lives again. They decided to use the transporter to go back to their real age because they couldn't imagine their lives being any better than the first time.

This linked story indicates they want to infuse "dramatic contemporary themes" into scripts.
This seems like a losing proposition. Back when Star Trek and MASH aired and twisted their libtard concepts into the storylines, it was viable because there was no alternative source of news or ideas, and Uncle Wally was both corrupt and dictatorial.

Now that algore has created the interwebs for we to ooze, there are plenty of sources, sourcing, and point of view of news and contemporary themes.

The sci-fi stories should stick with sci-fi.

Other than the rooting for the underdog and David vs Goliath themes, does anybody think Firefly ventured into contemporary theme land? 2002 would have been good time to reflect upon 9/11 or the Gulf War, terrorism. I don't recall that happening, and I loved the episodes and the scripts and portrayals - all of them.
