I heard that J. Michael Straczynski pitched the idea for a reboot of TOS to Paramount some years back, and I can't help but wonder how it would have turned out if they had gone through with making it*.

*Still probably better than everything I've read about Abramstrek.

Funny you should mention that:

Here's the pitch if you want to check it out.

Wow,I have had my problems with some of JMS's writing in the past decade so I wasn't expecting to like this but I did. I really like that pitch and the DNA idea that would give them a mystery to explore and explain why all the aliens are budget friendly. i would much rather have gotten that series then the last two movies. Too bad:(
