If Pike makes Kirk look like an aggressive wildcard, Reynolds would make Kirk look like a bank clerk. The running theme in the show would be how, each episode, he barely dodges a court marshal for whatever he did.
No clue. I honestly don’t watch that much TV anymore. A younger Richard Dean Anderson might have been interesting in the role. Who to cast for Burgoyne though, half of the out non-binary actors are already in modern Trek, lol. (Also kudos to Peter David for the non-binary representation in the 90s, wow.)
Which would cause more mayhem, Malcom Reynolds, just trying to survive, or Katherine Janeway getting coffee?
Edit: also it’s Court Martial. As in Martial (Military) Court. The Marshalls aren’t coming to arrest you in Starfleet, no guarantee of that in the 'verse I suppose
I’d dig a spinoff about smaller Federation ships. Tugboats, science vessels, diplomatic fixers, whatever. Ships where the half-dozen bridge crew are the entire crew. Release it in arcs following one of those at a time, so we can get to know people, but the show needn’t be afraid of killing people off or blowing up the whole damn ship. Stakes can feel serious because there’s no plot armor… even if the tone is usually safe. And it does allow for captains getting run off, or reassigned to flying a desk, or just regular arrested.
For proper trolling I’d get the cast of Firefly back together and completely jumble their roles.

I swear by my pretty floral bonnet, I will end you.
You’ve just made me realize how much I want a Star Trek Excalibur mini series.
Who would you cast as Calhoun?

How are you accuse me of trying to spell!
They’re trying to (cast a) spell! They’re a witch or wizard! Burn the heretic!
