I thought it was just a few episodes. I'm fearing the Hamptons all over again.

In that case, I would love it if they find an alien show and have no idea what's going on.

Well...it's only like North Hampton in regarding in they in a new location.
I can't say too much on the next storyline of season 4 because...well spoilers but my best bet that it will be a similar situation with Avatar: The Last Airbender with the turtles having to travel multiply locations from different planets or regions instead of being tied alone on a spaceship.

But doing that would be really ambiguous and expensive for the nick crew so it will probably be a mixture of adventure and some bottle episodes on the space ship.

A "bottle episode" is designed to take up as little money as possible. The easiest way to go about this is to use only the regular cast (or even just part of the regular cast) and set it in a single location, especially if you have a main standing set. This keeps production costs down, because no one needs to scout locations, build new sets, or create fancy CGI graphics of the outside of the spaceship. Bottle episodes are often a chance for a slow, characterization-filled episode before/after a big special-effects-laden action episode. Of course, all this doesn't mean the episode will be cheap, just that it's meant to be; like any regular episode, unforeseen complications can cause the show to run over the scheduled budget.

And if there is a show that's a master at bottle episodes, it's Star Trek and knowing how they feel about Star Trek, some storylines are going to be straight out of a Gene Roddenberry's script or maybe Russell T Davies's since they got David Tennant.

I just hope they learn their mistakes in trying to not dodge the freaking the plot for 10 something episodes especially after a really plot heavy and devastating event in the season third finale.
