screen theatrical sequel to 'TNG's "Conspiracy" episode, just as TWoK was the sequel to 'TOS's "Space Seed"? I know that The Worms were replaced by The Borg on the series, but I would LOVE for them (The Worms) to have returned in a theatrical film version continuation. After all the episode ended with the worms giving off a signal (although a very weak one) to their kind elsewhere in space. To me, it seemed like a sequel was planned but never came to be...
I also typed about this on the old 'TNG' forum of IMDb.

I would have liked a sequel to Conspiracy either in a movie or in the show. I was always baffled that it ended on a cliffhanger and then they never went back to it.
On that note I would also have liked a Schisms follow up. It had a similar ending (a message being sent into space) but they never went back to it.

I know. When the next season started (IIRC), it was as though it had never happened. Maybe it was just a particularly creepy fantasy someone created on the Holodeck?  |

I was disappointed, there wasn't a follow up in TNG or a following show. Perhaps a future show still could feature the Worms - assuming they have the budget for them.

Yes... Even though I wasn't the biggest fan of 'TNG's "Conspiracy" episode, at the time it originally aired, I too am disappointed that there wasn't a sequel... (I was expecting one, eventually...) After doing some reading on wikipedia... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conspiracy_(Star_Trek:_The_Next_Generation)I was surprised to learn, that the episode was a bit more popular than I imagined... and was somewhat controversial too... I also never really thought of it as a sinister episode of Horror, and Darkness... But some reviewers certainly thought so... I guess that explains the idea, behind the creation of the episode poster that a fan created for the episode... Which I found and posted in this thread: " Star Trek FAN Poster Art": imdb2.freeforums.net/thread/89112/star-trek-fan-poster-artWhen I saw that, I thought to my self: " This design reminds me of an Alfred Hitchcock film..." It seems that many people, including the OP: RiP, IMDb , think this story, or a sequel, would make for a great film... The more I think about all of this... The more I am thinking that it would make for a great plot to one of the new films... Perhaps starting off with something like this: "Star Trek: Secret Invasion"(Rated R...For Horror, ETC.) Mysterious "body snatching" worms begin to take over the leadership of Starfleet Command on Earth... While the Enterprise is on it's Five Year Mission of exploring the Galaxy... Kirk And Crew become concerned after learning of strange new orders being issued to all Starships and Outposts throughout the sector, and they return to Earth to investigate... But after they arrive, the mystery deepens when members of the crew begin to act strangely violent... |

I remember that episode. I figured it was an early inspiration for the symbiote that eventually became the Dax aliens.
I think NG had their own Space Seed story with Lore and the "Skin of Evil" character Armus. Lore was a Frankenstein monster type of being, and had some reasonable grievances with his creator. As did Armus, who was the result of some ancient scientific experiment.
Havent seen it since first airing but I remember the creature begging Picard to kill it and he refuses, keeping it quarantined forever.
I would be wanting revenge too!

The UK banning was about the notorious phaser-to-the-face scene, which was rather graphic given that the show aired at 6pm...   Bit much for family TV... As for the worms, I believe the comics and books explore them some. If I recall right, one of the novels established that they were related to the Trill Symbiotes. |

DICKS! Funny, deem. I never understood all the hate. If I want to call some guy a dumb son of a bitch because he doesn't think Cheers is the greatest sitcom of all time then I should be able to without him taking offense. If I want to tell someone that they're an idiot because they prefer TOS to TNG then that should be tolerated. People just need to take what I give them and say nothing about it. Hopefully that happens here. If not then my stay will be short. |

No no no, deem. Everybody should like what I like. If they don't it's my job to call them out on it. They just need to take it with a smile and not say anything. |
