    I think with the release of ST:O . . . in whatever form it comes out to be . . . it'll show the owners of the franchise that this is still a profitable vehicle for them.

    However, I am not in it for the money, I just want good quality ST on TV once more. And if it means waiting until I have kids, so be it.

    I find this intresting because people cried out "TAKE IT OFF THE AIR! GIVE IT A REST" but when that happened people screamed "THEY ARE TAKING OUR TREK! NOOOOOO!"


    I'm confused.

    It is missed because ST:TOS made up for the cheezy effects with some actual writing. ST:TNG was a bit too politically correct and has not aged well. STS9 started slow, but got better. ST:VOY was an abomination. and ENT.....a missed opportunity...tho 4th season went a long way to redeem it.

    In the Last series that were teh suck...there is a common demoninator. now what would that be....Oh yeah, Bermaga.

    Wait they're gone. We have a chance now
    A brave little theory, and actually quite coherent for a system of five or seven dimensions -- if only we lived in one.

    The first three seasons were "teh suck"

    The fourth season (minus the series finale episode) should have been the ones to launch Enterprise.

    Berman's gone? I want proof, and a TRO issued he is not go to within 100 feet of the Paramount Studio and Star Trek franchise headquarters.

    Why only a TRO . . . make that tihs permanent. And enforce it with a battery of Planetary Defense Phasers .. . or a couple armed guards . . . I'll take whatever, as long as it keeps him out of the franchise.
