I Loved Captain Riker in Star Trek Picard so why don't he have is own TV Series I mean after 50 years were getting Captain Pike Back as Captain of the Original Enterprise in Star Trek: Strange New Worlds (yes they did promise Original Series Klingons and TNG Klingons too from what I hear) So why not Captain Riker in Command of the USS Titan or another Star Ship hell even the Enterprise I think it would be so Cool to have that

    It has been too long so the actor does not look the part anymore for the Titan, but on the other hand they could have the further adventures of whatever ship he was on at the end of Picard season one.

    I think it was the Zheng He. And from what I can figure, Riker's basically a reservist now. He only pused to be reactivated because he had a feeling his old friend Picard was going to need some help, so he wanted to be in a position that COULD should Picard ask for it.

    "Just because I wasn't trying to talk you out of it doesn't mean I was going to let you go it alone."

    Frakes really is in no shape to act as Riker anymore. Actually, pretty much all of the returning TNG-actors in ST: Picard were embarrassing (Spiner being an exception, as he fits into the old-scientist-trope pretty well I think).

    And as redlettermedia put it... nobody will be impressed if challenged by an ACTING CAPTAIN. Because to outsiders it sounds like that's not even a captain at all.

    It would lead to that stereotypical "I want to talk to your manager"-situation.

    Can't believe no one sees the obvious, but it should be a Retired Riker Cooking Show.
