Okay, how about this one: let's take the Enterprise, replace the crew with the crew of the Love Boat, and then send them on plots from Fantasy Island. No? Okay, how about we take the crew of the Enterprise, crash them on some handy asteroid, and give them plots from Gilligan's Island. Lost in Space? It's About Time. What would happen if the replicants in "Blade Runner" acted like the androids in "Mudd's Women"? Or the opposite? Superman may be more powerful than a locomotive, but can he stop the Enterprise in mid-orbit and cause Scotty to say the usual line? What do Care Bears think of Klingons? Let's replace Spock with Yoda; after all, they're both green and have pointy ears. We could get rid of Spock on the Enterprise, yet retain Spock, by, say, sending him back through time to inhabit J R Ewing's body. Don't these make about as much sense as combining StarTrek with StarWars or Battlestar Galactica? L S Chabot ...decwrl!dec-rhea!dec-amber!chabot chabot%amber.dec@decwrl.arpa
