When Star Trek: The Next Generation was announced, everybody was pissed. “You can’t have Star Trek without Captain Kirk!” “The first officer is a soap opera supporting actor!” “The captain is bald??!”
And then, lo and behold, it was the best Star Trek, almost entirely absent of rehashing, paying slavish tribute to, or shamelessly trading on nostalgia for The Original Series.
So, have someone go to the used spaceship dealer, buy a rusty old Firefly class light freighter, and go off on their own adventures. Nothing wrong with new crew, same universe.
