When David started talking, I had to look down for a sec and say "Wait. Did I guest on Gimme That Star Trek again and forget?"

Really enjoyed the episode with each of your unique ideas about where to take the franchise next. A couple of my own little pitches:
Captain Sulu: Even if it's just a Short Trek, I want to see Takei in the Captain's Chair at least a little more. Let's get this done before it's too late!
Lower Decks: Not the animated comedy they're coming out with (although I'm looking forward to that too), but a more serious approach like the TNG episode of the same name. Similar to the original pitch for The West Wing (before Martin Sheen asked if he could be more involved), make the senior officers guest stars, and get more day to day of the crew that are down in the trenches.

Remember when that Captain Sulu show was going to be a thing? Sigh.
