Basically just five seasons of the cast getting together, having drinks, and playing poker more or less in character. Call it “Galaxy [Class] Series of Poker”. TV gold.

    I dunno about just poker, but I’d watch a show that took place entirely on the ship (no planets of the week or big budget special effects). I loved the bottle show episodes of TNG. They were so damn cozy!

      Right? I feel like it would be a high quality, low budget, low stress series. No CGI, minimal costume and make up, the writers may just have to give them some in-character stuff to work into their otherwise ad-libbed banter. The cast’s age wouldn’t be a concern since they’d be comfortably seated the whole time.

      The framing device could be that after PIC S3, they decide to meet up for a weekly game of poker and we’re just spectators to it.

      It could work 😆

    It could be a little story anthology series, with each player taking terms sharing an embellished story to distract from the strength of their hands.

        Beau. Maybe we could get a story about his targ when he has a good hand.

        Dr. Crusher could get everyone a little hot under the collar with a ghost story
