And dropped the whole main crew always hang out even on shore leave thing. Give them each a moment in their own lives without the rest of the crew.

Kirk, Spock, and Bones hanging out together was meant to show that each one pretty much only had the other two and nobody else. As McCoy observed, other people have families, but per Kirk, "not us". The lack of any other relationship than his closest crewmates, a story point revisited multiple times across TOS, was almost certainly Kirk's pain; losing it would break the compensatory bonds he had with Spock and McCoy.

I get why the writers put it in there, but it would have been nice to see each of the crew outside of their shipboard lives and friends when they get the recall order. Something like McCoy is at his daughter's house and enjoying his grandkids, Spock is at some scientific convention listening to a 23rd century Einstein or Hawking, Sulu is at some San Francisco Turkish bathhouse, etc... and they have to stop whatever that is to report back. The only two who aren't on shore leave is Scotty, because fixing his ship is his greatest pleasure, and Kirk, because he actually has no life outside of his work. And that eats at him too.

That was such a bizarre way to close out Kes' story. "Yeah, she's going off to explore a wonderous new world with her evolved powers and shows back up a bitter, demented old crone that had a terrible time and tries to kill them all because of that." Had Lien gone psycho by that point and they were just trying to get rid of her forever?

Brannon Braga and Rick Berman co-wrote that episode. Those two do not play well with other writers. Braga was probably in the room rewriting everybody’s pages with his dick out.

Michael Piller created the character Kes with Jeri Taylor. The ratings were in the toilet the entire run. So Berman just randomly dropped Ken into Season 6 and yeeted her off the show to juice the numbers.

If I had been writing Nemesis I would have had Picard going up against a dark version of himself. Not an evil clone, but someone just as smart, capable, and experienced as he was. Think a Romulan Picard who is the shadowy reflection. Like Belloq to Indy in Raiders of the Lost Ark. He isn't evil per se, just he wants to get to the McGuffin first and while Picard has morals and Starfleet regulations to hamper him, Shadow Picard is willing to cut corners. He can have the Romulan military pushing him and even threatening Shadow Picard, but it's ultimately down to Picard having to outthink Shadow Picard. Of course there's a showdown at the end and the good guys win, but at a cost. Data's gone, the Enterprise is wrecked, the crew split up to new assignments, and Picard retired against his will, but he's good with it because he saved some planet or race or humanity or something and kept the McGuffin from the Romulans.

Another alternative Nemesis idea: Bring back Tomalak. Maybe he discovered the Federation tricked the Romulans into joining the Dominion war, and the Enterprise has to prevent him from launching a coup against the Senate and declaring war on the Federation. The MacGuffin is a super weapon the Romulans were developing for the war.

TBF, the whole point of the Cerritos is to be the cheap, crappy ship assigned to unimportant sectors, so using salvaged Galaxy parts makes sense for a Frankenship. Too bad the Nebula just does it better.

Nebulas aren't cheap enough for the multitude of lesser roles the Mirandas, Excelsiors, and other past their prime ships classes are fulfilling. Nebulas are just cheap compared to what Galaxies and Sovereigns cost to build and field.

Captain Syrup powiedział(a):
The Galaxy class is so tied to that "history’s over, let’s wear footie pajamas and fuck in the holodeck” vibe. Nobody wants to admit it looks dated because it's better than our current dystopia.

In universe, Galaxy class was designed and the first block initially built in what would be known as the twilight of the Federation's golden age of exploration.
