Star Trek: Strange New Worlds episode pitch...

I'd watch the hell out of that.

Jessica Thence

How interesting. I haven't watched the Orville. It's disappointing if they didn't do that episode well. Is the show good otherwise?

Emory Ahlberg

Hm! Then maybe I should write it....

Emory Ahlberg

How about for $5? 😋

Emory Ahlberg

Right??? I'll call up Paramount and see if they're interested. 😉

Emory Ahlberg

Fair! That actually totally makes sense, Blue. 😊

Emory Ahlberg

Yay! 😁

I would read it I think

Emily Morgan

This feels like something similar to Orville but in reverse since they had a race of all "male" aliens that surgically alter their children if female. They dropped the ball on that episode greatly.

Nayatha

Oh honey. You are in for a treat.

You're name hear

That would be interesting for sure :)

MaggieHeels

Interesting! I don't know much about the show or the Moclans. Are they all female?

Emory Ahlberg

Thanks! I thought so, too. Now to get it to the producers.... 😉

Emory Ahlberg

I thought you might like this idea, Rex. Hehe.

Emory Ahlberg

Thanks, Beverly! Now I just need to get staffed on the show lol.

Emory Ahlberg

Yes! Luckily, the Federation only ever follows the Prime Directive when the plot says they should. 😉

Emory Ahlberg

I've never been a fan of the "everyone is a woman" concept. The idea of being a woman seems less interesting if everyone is a woman... not sure why.

Blue Dragon

The moving finger writes, and says….Go for it! 😁

Robertlouis

Yup

Love it

Beverly

Absolutely diabolical Emory. ❤️

Rex

and what the hell fun would that be?

if the federation follows their prime directive then there is no story, is there?

I haven't seen the new series myself, but as someone somewhat familiar with the philosophy behind the original, it seems kind of uncharacteristic to vilify one gender so broadly even if it was based on long since past incidents. So the devil would be in the details: did the wars stop specifically from the gender change (i.e are the women inherently pacifist just by nature) or was there intentional mental manipulation that pacified the former men, were the wars caused by gender roles encouraging warlike behavior for men or was that something that occured independent of their social morals, how similar in nature is their culture/biology/gender system to ours, how much of their identity is maintained after the change, etc. Without these nuances handled properly it could come across as sexist. So the social commentary part of the story would require serious finesse. As a story independent of commentary, it sounds horrifying which is an aspect of my tg fascination that has always been a challenge to reconcile. My bias to this subject matter makes it hard to judge validity as a quality episode concept, all I can focus on is the potential pitfalls here. And regardless, no matter how they'd nuance the story, the internet will tear it apart either way if that's considered a factor here.

That's basically the Moclans from The Orville.
