B5 Creator Pitches Trek

"...just to clarify, though I got a call last year about coming onto Enterprise, offering an EP (Executive Producer) position, and declined, the series I mentioned has nothing to do with any current series, it's a new show. As for Manny, he's a good writer, and left to his own devices, I think he could be a big help over there without the other powers that be impeding the process.

Amusingly enough, on the Trek front, Bryce Zabel (the creator of Dark Skies) and I got together and wrote a treatment earlier this year that specified how to save ST and develop a series that would restore the series in a big way. I actually think it could be a hell of a show. Whether that ever goes anywhere with Paramount, who knows?"

I can hope that Paramount gets off their ass and makes the attempt. And if anyone could breath life into the dehydrated, lifeless husk that Trek has become, it's JMS.

I think Satan is putting in that order for Ice Skates about now...

Oh, that's just for Paramount having *made* the offer in the first place. If they actually go with JMS's proposal, you could mine for metallic hydrogen in Hades.....

I watched the last several episodes of Enterpise over the weekend, and it was almost good. Pacing was much better than in previous episodes, and it definitely had an overarching story that was entertaining. I was happy with it for the most part up until the last couple of minutes. Then, it was WTF?!? Nazi's??!? ALIEN NAZIs?!?!?!????!??!

JOhn.
