"The Rikers" from Star Trek: The Next Generation

The actors Marina Sirtis and Jonathan Frakes who played Deanna Troi and Will Riker on Star Trek: The Next Generation, did an interview talking about many things including an idea about a sitcom called The Rikers, a half hour comedy about the Rikers in space. If they are serious, that show would be extremely funny, because the two of them talking together had me laughing non-stop. It is fun to hear them remembering their time acting in Star Trek and about the conventions they attend, and I will post the video, it is a little over 9 minutes, but I could have listened for an hour, they are that much fun.
You can read more about the interview on TrekToday. From the article:

In the video, the pair, whose characters married in Star Trek: Nemesis, talk about their Star Trek days as well as what they would do if they could make their own half-hour sitcom.

“We have this idea for a sitcom,” said Sirtis.

“A half hour, the Rikers in Space,” added Riker, “their wacky uncle Data, their little dog Worf. Two of us, on like the Titan probably, being funny. And we’re dead serious.”

I would watch that show, it sounds original and funny!
