10 NEW Star Trek Series For CBS All Access We Want To See
1. Ferengi
In the early episodes of The Next Generation, a species named the Ferengi was introduced. They were short, greedy beings who would do almost anything for wealth and power. They also weren't exactly well known as great warriors, philanthropists or scientists. Frankly, they weren't particularly bright in most cases, just really focused.
They appeared occasionally on TNG but were a fixture on Deep Space Nine. Quark, a Ferengi businessman and criminal, owned the bar and casino on the space station. Through him and his family, the series had several Ferengi-centric episodes that explored their culture on a deeper level. They also showed several Ferengi that did not fit the traditional mold, including Quark and his brother.
Those episodes were some of the best in the entire series.
The Ferengi are one of the most unique and interesting species in Star Trek. Their obsession with wealth is somewhat of a rarity among other major space faring races. There are a lot of potential stories to be told, particularly if told through the eyes of the already established Ferengi characters.
