I do hope that ST addresses Sisko in some form. Even if it's something like a cameo in a show. Just to finish that storyline.
Got a tip for us?

There's a lot that they could go into with this as well.
If I remember right, at the end of DS9, as Martok was named Chancellor of the Klingon Empire, he made Worf an ambassador. So there is a decent storyline to go with that, especially if ST: Online is cannon, and apparently in that game, he married Grilka (I would to, damn! 😘 ), so that could be played out, especially as it happens well before Picard.
Quark still has his bar, but Rom is Grand Nagus. Perhaps somewhere in that they can tell stories of what is happening with Nog. Perhaps Rom appoints someone else as Nagus so he can return to DS9 as Chief Engineer, since O'Brien retired.
Dax and Bashir are easy; they continue their tension filled platonics.
Who takes over as chief of security is a good question.
And we know Section 31 will play something in this.
But the hard ones to deal with here will be Sisko, Nog, and Odo. But all of this would make for some great screenplays.
BL.

Since Picard brought back the DS9 narrative of the FOunders and Dominion war. What would they focus on in a spin off?
Working title of spin off in line with "Picard"
"Sisko"
"Founders"
Merge all 3 Next Gen time shows. Janeway, Sisko, Picard.
Worf clearly moved on from DS9 in Picard.
Kira and DS9.
Sisko became a Prophet in a wormhole.
Nog became Grand Nagus. If the a new war is brewing with changlings not sure Ferengi would have much sub plots given the story arch driven series being the new format rather than stand alone episodes. ANd shorter seasons of 10-13 vs the 26 in standard TV back then.
Jake, where's he at now
Bashir/Dax yeah they could explore that.
And Picard introduced new characters. Would we do that for DS9 era?
Odo most definitely would play a part since these new hybrid changelings are now a driving factor in the future of the Federation.
What about the Cardasians now? Would they play a part in a new series spin off. And the Bajorans.
Then there's supposed to be Section 31 spin off? But that's with the Discovery era and cast. Since the rumor is Michelle Yeoh playing the main character of that show in that time line? So many stories.

Alas, the actor who played Nog, Aron Eisenberg, died in 2019.
Also, I think Dax and Bashir hooked up at the end, right before the final battle.
Section 31 has moved production forward, and now that Michelle Yeoh is an Oscar winner, I'm sure ST is anxious to get her in the fold. Discovery went into the 31st century, but Yeoh's character went back to the 24/25 century in her last Discovery appearance, aka the "current" ST time line. That's where it will take place.
They could do that, which would be a good thing.
He moved on from DS9 in DS9. He became the Klingon ambassador to the Federation, and disembarked from DS9 in the series finale.
This they could do, because as Sisko became the prophet and stayed in the wormhole, Kira took over DS9.
Exactly. But there is still the unfinished business with that, especially with regards to Jake.
Nog didn't became Nagus; Rom did. Nog stayed in Starfleet, and since they consider ST: Online to be canon, he became a Starfleet captain, apparently of the USS Nog. I still think they should have named it the USS Eisenberg.
Still on DS9, with journalism; at least per the series finale.
Yeah.. intense platonics, like they had in the entire TV show Bones.
Something to consider: More of the Maquis. Keep in mind that in Voyager, Torres and Chakotay get the note that the there aren't any more Maquis, as they were casualties of the Dominion War. They can build from that.
We know that Dukat died in that last battle with Sisko, and I believe Dumar became leader of Cardassia during the Dominion War. Seeing that this series could be filling in the gaps between Voyager returning to Earth and ST: Picard, there's a lot that could be done there.
Besides, Apparently if Ro survived (as she appears in Picard), there is plenty to work on there, especially with how she became Maquis.
Exactly.. many different ways to go with this, especially as since Stewart said that there is a 25 year gap between Nemesis and Picard, since that time actually occurred. A lot can be filled in there... Including those worm eating aliens that took over Starfleet Command in the TNG episode Conspiracy. Even that still hasn't been resolved!
BL.
Oh thats right. Rom became Nagus. It's been a few years since I watched DS9.
Yes on both counts.
Aron Eisenberg
Aron Eisenberg (6 January 1969 – 21 September 2019; age 50) was the actor who is best known for portraying Nog on Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. Eisenberg worked with Mark Paniccia on the Malibu celebrity comic book "The Rules of Diplomacy". Alongside fellow Deep Space Nine performers Max...
What You Leave Behind (episode)
In this last adventure, the Federation Alliance prepares a final invasion of Cardassia. Meanwhile on Bajor, Kai Winn releases the Pah-wraiths from the Fire Caves which threatens the safety of not only Bajor, but the entire Alpha Quadrant. (Part 9 of 9) (Series finale) In his quarters, Julian...
Sorta OT, this relates to DS9 and Picard S2: .
I'm a bit excited by this. I'm hoping they have a few storylines about Grand Nagus Rom and his reformation of the Ferengi Alliance.🧐
Part of me wish that they hadn't killed off Damar. I liked him after his heel to face turn, going from a snide drunkard to a heroic figure. I guess Garak will be among the leadership helping to rebuild Cardassia.
Whoa, WHOA, *WHOA*! Y'all want to kill off Rom?😢 Dayum, the Ferengis don't play about when it comes to the Rules of Acquistions.😱
Rom was a progressive Ferengi. And, as the Grand Nagus at the conclusion of DS9, would have allowed females to earn profit.🤗 This flies against the 94th Rule: Females and finances don't mix. So the Board of Liquidators decides to stab Grand Nagus Rom in the Tower of Commerce. Et tu, Brunt! Then fall Rom.😭😭
It'd would have been cool to spin off series that involved Star Fleet Intelligence. A type of show in the vein of shows like "24", "The Recruit", "Person of Interest". Show where they're thwarting threats to the Federation. Espionage/spy genre set in the STar Trek universe. I suppose Section 31 is in that scope. So we'll see where that goes.
Another cool concept might be "First Contact". Like a show about the Federation making 1st contact with all the major species and how those relationships into the Federation evolved. But then that might get too complicated and who'd you pick to focus on? And would that really work as a stand alone show?
I also thought about a show that was more militaristic or law enforcement focused based in the Star Trek world. You never really saw that fleshed out in that universe.
Or a show that explores Federation Politics. Like House of Cards type stories.

Strange New Worlds Season 3 has already been greenlit (season 2, June 15th), as has Lower Decks Season 5. The upcoming Season 4 of Lower Decks will hit sometime this summer (no exact date there, but since 2020, it’s always been in August), while Season 2 of Star Trek: Prodigy will debut in the Winter of 2023. Discovery Season 5 will air in early 2024, and serve as the final season for that show.

Haven't gotten into Prodigy, yet, but I enjoy Strange New Worlds, and Lower Decks is a serious contender for Best Star Trek, ever.

SNW, LD, DS9 - my three favorites. Though season 3 of Picard has been up there too. Riker's hair can stand toe to toe with Pike's
Prodigy was actually pretty good, I enjoyed it. Good to see Janeway back.
S3 of Picard is great. Capt Shaw and Cdr Seven steal that show with their frenemies dynamic. There is rumor of a spinoff.
A Spinoff! You don't say!!! We have never seen a spinoff in the ST universe before! 😂😌
BL.
Hey. mock if you will, but it's a good way of testing a new show concept without spending money for a pilot. It worked for SNW. Plus, I think they are looking for a new live action ST show that can continue the TNG-DS9-Voyager timeline. Seven has been popular, and Shaw is the new Pike - a breakout. A bit of a jerk, but in the end will do the right thing.
Not mocking you at all. In fact I'm laughing at the point that we are potentially having yet another spinoff. TAS was a spinoff of TOS. TNG is a spinoff of TOS. DS9 and VOY are all spinoffs of TNG. Picard is a spinoff of TNG. So we are looking at a good 8 or 9 spinoffs of a show from nearly 60 years ago. And now we're looking at another one. That's an amazing run for a show which barely had 80 episodes.
BL.
ST is Paramount's cash cow, so I expect they will have at least two or three Treks running year round for years. Don't fix what isn't broken.
There were various episodes of TOS, TNG, DS9 and Voyager where we saw older versions of the crew due to rapid aging disease or time travel. I was always amused by the work of the makeup artists looking so different from how the actors really look after all these years.

Actually, aged Riker looks EXACTLY like he did in TNG finale as he does now in Picard. It's freaky.
