I wonder how they're going to approach the dilemma I first proposed? For example, everyone *knows* the Romulans are an off-shoot of the Vulcans. That was revealed in TOS. What are they going to use as "surprises" without invalidating TOS?

Also, what are they going to use as "Big New Threats?" They won't be able to introduce a Dominion or Borg without also invalidating TOS?

(That's one nice thing about being a Narrator instead of a writer. I can- and will!- bulldoze TNG/DS9 assumptions without getting thousands of letters from upset fans!)
Oh my God, how old is this thread?

Looking at the points made in this post, though, the more things change, the more they stay the same.....
