They could try another series which breaks the mold - like DS9 did - but with the amount of depth that is present in the franchise adding a random new key element to any of the current time lines and the story begins to stretch a bit thin - that was my assessment of the enterprise series. |
Why not push beyond the limits of Voyager? Why stick to the four quadrants in the Milky Way.
In the 2561 the first Federation Starship could be headed for the Magellanic Clouds or Andromeda. With CGI getting less expensive alien life forms could be depicted more alien. There is a huge consumer market and millions of Star Trek fans. Why lose the business?
