none of the spin offs ever came close to measuring up, that's for sure.

next gen > original star trek > star trek movies > all later star treks.

I wholeheartedly agree. We should get together sometime and watch a load of episodes. I'll bring the Foster's and tortilla chips. :D

never been a big fan, but the next generation had some hilarious characters, like that guy with a big peanut for a head.

I've watched a lot of OS and probably all of TNG and TNG is much better. Certainly not as groundbreaking but from a dramatic standpoint

Sorry Phoenix, only movies 2, 4 and the latest one were any good. God, the first one was a snooze fest.

Keeping It Simple 03.30.2010 07:24 AM

TNG sucks. Everyone on it was SO wooden, I couldn't help but think of Ronseal's wood varnish.

It reminds me too much of my dad. I remember being a kid and he would watch it all of the time. I thought it was boring at the age of 5 I wanted to watch cartoons. So it leaves a negative connotation in my mind. In retrospect it was a good show.

Was he a good dad?

SONIC GAIL 03.30.2010 07:52 AM

Yes I love my Daddy.

Did you ever tell him you wanted to watch cartoons rather than Captain James T. Kirk and the gang when you were five? :D

SONIC GAIL 03.30.2010 07:57 AM

Yeah, but he would hear none of it, unless Looney toons were on.

Looney toons took precedence over Star Trek in your house? Wow. :)

My dad watched Upstairs, Downstairs, despite me wanting to watch Touche Turtle and Dum Dum, which was always on at the same time on the other channel. :(

I love in this order

DS9/TNG/Original

i dig all the movies, even the bad ones.

Count Mecha 03.30.2010 10:33 AM

I've always enjoyed TNG more for a number of reasons, the main one being that TNG is more of an ensemble show than OS, which is basically the Kirk and Spock show. TNG makes alot more sense too, as silly as it is sometimes.

Fucking love that Accellerated Time episode though.

Toilet & Bowels 03.30.2010 12:43 PM

you rate DS9 over tng & the original?


i have a sort of soft spot for voyager.

demonrail666 03.30.2010 12:48 PM

I tended to watch star trek more out of habit than anything. I've never seen a single episode of TNG and have only seen the film that featured the whales.

Dr Who was better, although even that went to pot a bit once Tom Baker was replaced.
