   Reminds me of the old mystery movie...one week Columbo, another week Kojak   
   (or whatever the configuration of detectives/cops was). The powers that be   
   currently have enough trouble coming up with interesting characters/plots   
   for one crew let alone several. I'd go for it if one of the characters had   
   one eye, wore a crumpled trench coat and went from ship to ship solving   
   mysteries.
