10 Times Star Trek Refused To Give Fans What They Wanted

10. Not Making A Titan Show

At the end of Star Trek: Nemesis, Will Riker was finally given command of his own ship, the USS Titan, where he was going to serve with his wife, Deanna Troi. Unfortunately, we never got to see this ship in action until years later in Lower Decks.

Ensign Fletcher was promoted and assigned to the Titan briefly, before losing his promotion for dumping garbage into the warp core. Later, Brad Boimler was also transferred to the ship, which was an extremely action-packed posting, compared to life on the much smaller USS Cerritos.

An entire book series, Star Trek: Titan, was made about Riker's and Troi's adventures aboard the Titan. The ship design by Sean Tourangeau, originally appeared on the cover of 2007's Sword Of Damocles, the 4th book in this series. After Nemesis, fans dreamed that we would see a Titan TV series, but it looks like the crossovers with Lower Decks are the best we're gonna get. However, the show did feature Tourangeau’s Titan design, officially making it “canon”. With Riker and Troi appearing in Star Trek: Picard (first in season one, and now in the upcoming third season), there’s hope we'll hear more about their time on the Titan.
