Asuming that there is going to be a new series around a ship, what kind of ship do you want it to be??

I would like to see one of these:
- A totally new ship (not a new Enterprise)
- An Akira class
- A (THE) Prometheus class

In the new series, which come in one or two years, I would like to see a class of ship not seen before. (Considering that each series begins with a new class of ship, I don't believe this is wish fullment.)
I don't want to see anymore older classes of ships such as the Excelsiors, Mirandas, or Oberths. With CGI, the creators of the new series can certainly produce new classes of ships.
And I want to see with a small ship, a small cast of primary characters.

If the series is in the future I'd like to see a new class. If it's in the present I'd like to see a Sabre, or a Steamrunner.

I'd like to see a real old beat up ship, something along the lines of a Constellation and preferably aone of the as of yet unseen designs i.e Hokule'a or Wambundu.

I thing New Frontier would make a good series, thus I'd like to see an Ambasador class.

hi can I answer this by saying - I don't think there should be a new series - for say 3-5 years after Voyager - even longer.

I'd like some telemovies.

Telemovies could be a good idea.
But I'd still like to know what ship you'd like to see

Is that enough room?

OK, anyway, here's what Berman and Paramount have been saying about the future of Trek in Movies and Series, so here is a timeline:

May/June 2001: Voyager ends
November/December 2001: Star Trek X (TNG Movie)
September 2002: 5th Series premiers
May/June 2009: 5th Series ends (if it runs 7 seasons)

Somewhere inbetween Star Trek X and the end of the 5th series will be a movie or two

I think they said they weren't doing more movies for a while, actually.

Yes, I don't think they meant a gap of three years when they said that...

No ships. Except for the orbital cargo haulers when they land at the colonies space port.

I have been thinking along the lines of a ST Indiana Jones. You could please the ship buffs with many shots of spacedocks, impress others with views of the seeder side of ST, and have plenty of stories that don't require the main characters to follow the prime directive. Hell, you could have stories with all the major intelligence communities, criminal organizations, and of course Starfleet. The main character would be a former Starfleet officer that just couldn't stay out of trouble , but was none the less well respected by those in Starfleet. He would have his own very very unimpressive ship, and would fall into Han Solo type category. Ok, I realize the Harrison Ford reference but those are two of my favorite characters in the universe of Science fiction. I believe a shift from the militaristic formats would provide a fresh take on the universe of Star Trek. One thing I would like to bring back is the optumism of TOS and TNG. As for suppporting characters I was thinking maybe a crazy but brilliant engineer type as a sidekick, or just a major reoccurring character.
Any thoughts people?

I'd like to see a Nebula Class, or a new design.

I'd like to see them use a Nebula class ship, it isn't new, but it would interesting, in my opinion.

Nothing like digging up an old topic.

I liked New Frontier, but I'd like to see it with some changes. A bigger ship. And the Tholian homeworld doen't blow up. No Great Bird.

I liked the S/he/it character, but I don't know if it would work on tv. To many closed minds.

I wonder, do they call it the Thol Thsystem?

I'd like to see the Prometheus, but then again, I'd also want to see a gay captain command it. So I doubt that the big-wigs at Paramount will go there.

I too would like to see a new ship introduced, however; with the amount of money paramount has shelled out to produce voyager and DS9 this seems unlikley. especially time and effort goes into designing a new ship. I think that the Akira class or Soveriegn class ships will do well to base a new series around. based on the perfomance of both ships in "First Contact" it seems like the logica thing to consider.
