If SNW people go through with a TOS continuation, where will they start?

In the minute possibly that a TOS continuation were to happen, where should they start from?

Would they go from end of TAS in 2270, or would they start from end of TOS in 2269, overlapping in time with TAS?

In the latter case, I would hope they do it so it’s in-between star dates of TAS to avoid bungling the chronology.

This also opens up the possibility for retelling some TAS episodes; I think most TAS episodes best belong in TAS, with the TAS camp and overall continued TOS storytelling conventions being fundamental to their charm. Live action remakes of a lot of these episodes would probably serve just to strip them of their soul rather than add anything.

The main exception I can think of might be “Yesteryear”; I think having an “extended version” as a full 50 minute episode or even possibly a 2-parter could allow them to add more depth to the story in a way that doesn’t severely break canon, showing more of Spock’s family life and school life as well as Vulcan society in general. I think this is a big story well-suited to newer Trek’s more dramatic storytelling style.

I think the biggest difficulty might be how they would handle young Michael Burnham in this episode. I think the easiest thing to do would be to just say Burnham’s parents were killed in December 2236 and “Yesteryear” happened in January 2237 a couple weeks to a month before Sarek took in Burnham. While I don’t necessarily hate the idea of young Burnham, I think Spock dealing with suddenly having a new adoptive sister would unnecessarily convolute the plot, so my solution works around that. I don’t want Yesteryear to be turned from a coming-of-age and being different story to one about sibling bonding. Then again, maybe they can pull it off and make something good.

What are your thoughts on this? Any other TAS episodes you think could benefit from being adapted into a live action episode?
