Would Season Eight have visited the Mirror Universe at all?

Season eight was never an issue it had already been decided that TNG would end after seven seasons to focus more on the TNG movies.I don't see why people seem to think that there were going to be more seasons?And it was a good thing they stopped because during season 7 it already was obvious that they were looking for stories to fill the season.Plus they wanted to explore the DS9 universe more and make a new series with a new crew and a new mission VOY with fresh stories to tell.

Season 8 would've been better than the movies, for me, as much as I enjoyed them.

I would have preferred a season 8 instead of Generations.

I think many fans would have knowing in which manner Kirk gets killed and Picard is in full-retard mode failing to see the possibilities of the Nexus.

This post doesn't at all assume that there would be more. It'sjust a hypothetical question. Geez

Sorry
But this is not the first post about this subject and since there is a lot of fan-fiction books out there I'll bet the OP can find the stories he described in those books of the franchise.Plus the OP seems to keep posting these "What if ?" scenarios that are not hypothetical but are things that will/would never happen on Trek so sorry for my reaction but I would suggest for the OP is to check out these fan-fiction books.

If an eighth season were expected, Season 7 obviously would not have been what it was, and Season 8 would end up having 7's distinguishing features, in order to wrap up the series to take TNG to the big screen.
I don't personally believe they would've done a Mirror Universe episode because at the time TNG was trying to be it's own show without much more additional support from TOS stuff. They already did a carbon copy of TOS The Naked Time, and they brought in McCoy, Sarek, Scotty, and Spock aboard, to sort of give the semi-official TOS stamp of approval for the show. TNG unintentionally created a bit of a division among Star Trek fans, with those who consider TOS to be the "real" Star Trek, versus those who were willing to give it a chance and stick with it. Doing a Mirror Universe episode at that time, even if it's a last season episode, might've damaged what they were trying to do, give TNG a sense of its own identity apart from TOS.

There is a Next Gen book called Dark Mirror that is fantastic. That is the Next Gen story I would have loved to have seen played out in the mirror universe. If you can find it you should check it out.

Doubt it TNG always avoided TOS based stories or even references Season 1 did have the The Naked Now but that episode was so bad I don't think anyone wants to even remember it.
Anyways by Season 7 they were completely out of fresh ideas of what to do.

I wouldn't say completely out of fresh ideas. They could've eeked out another season.

Well during season 7 it was quite obvious they were grasping for good and fresh stories otherwise Sub Rosa would have never been green lit or episodes like or Masks ,Genesis,Firstborn(Klingons were interesting but this Alexander stuff was too much)and Attached who were also not of the quality of the previous seasons.

DS9 killed the Mirror Universe in making the Terran Empire defeated and turning them to slaves to the Bajorans. I liked the TNG book Dark Mirror about the Mirror Universe.

Probably. Based on season 7 they should have stopped after season six. There are some good episodes in the final season but few and far between.
And the movies? Well, First Contact was good. The rest not so much. Nemesis was almost as bad as Final Frontier and Insurrection, while not bad, would have made a mediocre tv episode.
TNG just didn't translate to the big screen all that well.
