Uh no.. The only reason why reimaged Battlestar worked was due to the fact that the old Battlestar was corny as fraking hell.. I would like to see Buck Rogers reimaged.

"oriented toward discovering the truth behind an ancient life that appears to have had a hand in creating the numerous humanoid species throughout the universe

Maybe an explanation of why early Kingons looked so different than later Kingons.

As for the ship's mission, Zabel said the new mission would be "oriented toward discovering the truth behind an ancient life that appears to have had a hand in creating the numerous humanoid species throughout the universe.

Hmm. Sounds more like Asimov's Foundation series.

We know that Scotty was constantly called upon to perform technical miracles and ably did so...but what if Scotty was a female character (just an example!), proof positive that in the future women equally excel in science and math?

Don't even think about making Scotty a woman.

Yeah, the true Trek fans won't take lightly an "alternate universe" idea, I'd bet.

I would like to see Buck Rogers reimaged.,

I would also, especially with the futuristic roller disco left out.

Babylon 5 was so superior to anything Trek, that if anybody can do it, that would be Straczynski himself.

Several episodes of the original BSG were on SciFi today.

I still like it better!

Yea, because we all know that Tribbles, sex with green women, and "Oh look, Bizarro Spock has an eeeeevil goatee!" were paragons of serious cinema. :)

That episode was already done on Star Trek TNG.

That awful show WAS a re-imagining. They should go back to the original novel and start from there.

That would have been the over-mission, which would have steered the Enterprise into finding its share of new worlds and civilizations just the same."

I thought that was called "Stargate SG-1" and "Stargate Atlantis"...[duck & run]

B5 is my alltime fave tv SF show. That being said, why don't they just think up something new instead of rehashing something like Trek?

I really think Trek needs to be shelved for a good 20-25 years or so, then air it out again. New adventures. 'Reboots' aren't that satisfying, especially a classic like TOS.
