I had a clever title, but now it's gone.

gamera_spinning, I was pointed to this proposal for a new Trek series by Joe Straczynski and Bryce Zabel. JMS was the creator of Babylon 5, and Zabel created Dark Skies and the TV version of The Crow, so they both have strong groundings in genre TV.
It looks like a cool bunch of ideas. I think it would be strange to see other actors playing the cast, but it still would have been more enjoyable than Enterprise. I'm pretty sure they wouldn't have turned Trek into "attack of the Space Arabs", either.
Of course, we could have ended up with another actor whose greatest desire was to become a real boy as Captain, but then again we might have ended up with Chairman Kaga's nephew as Spock. So, yeah, some good, some bad.
