The Star Trek And Doctor Who Crossover Miniseries Was Killed By One Ridiculous Thing
Why didn't "Star Trek: Strange New Worlds" and "Doctor Who" cross over? The short of it: corporate bickering.
AI Summary
Corporate disagreements halted a planned crossover between “Star Trek: Strange New Worlds” and “Doctor Who.” Co‑showrunner Akiva Goldsman confirmed he and “Doctor Who” writer Russell T. Davies negotiated the concept, even considering making Pelia—played by Carol Kane, the USS Enterprise’s chief engineer—a former companion of the Doctor. The idea was hinted at in the “Strange New Worlds” episode “New Life and New Civilizations,” where Pelia quips about a time‑traveling doctor she once knew. The project was ultimately shelved because of the corporate bickering.
