What a way to depart from my usual Friday-evening PBS routine. Why not? I thought; this is the last of Star Trek for who knows how long? That first episode was a yawner. From my standpoint, it's as if I had never taken leave of this series back in the second season. Nothing has changed; it's...
Moe, there is nothing wrong with the previous three posts. These people have been expressing their Star Trek views here from the get-go. On the other hand, there are some people who want Star Trek no matter how badly written it is (and it has been badly written through all of Voyager and most of...
About that full-page ad in the Los Angeles Times: It appeared in this morning's edition. The page was in the front section -- not the entertainment section. There is going to be a demonstration in front of Paramount on, I believe, Feb. 29. All that effort for so little of a show.
I agree strongly with these previous two posts. As I've posted before, the typical Enterprise plot (and I've only got two seasons' worth of episodes down; stopped watching entirely with Season Three -- unheard of for me when it comes to Star Trek) could easily have been dropped in to any of the...
I am happy with the news, which I just posted in the thread about UPN. Now, let's let it rest (for years and years). We've had fun with Star Trek. Now it's time for it to rest. When the show returns, it will be as Jason has indicated a couple of posts ago.
Let's eschew the carping at other members. Frank is correct: This was to be the appreciation thread for the fans. I was expecting the weekly individual-episode threads to resume, so that the curmudgeons could post their thoughts too. Rex? Want to start another next week?
Well, the intention was to make this thread a safe haven for the show's fans. At any rate, that's interesting to see that Coto is vetoing the use of the Gorn, acknowledging that it was Kirk who first encountered the big lizard in person. I've been wondering if this series will wrap as a...
Actually, Frank, I'm always here — I just can't post here about the show, per the ground rules of the thread! :) So the new season has started? Beyond the above posts, how do the fans here feel so far? Are you guys hopeful?
Actually, it was SpaceShipOne's second manned spaceflight, the previous one -- a test flight -- not being part of the spacecraft's X Prize run. Last week's flight was round one of its X Prize mission, while today's flight clinched the X Prize for Burt Rutan's team at Scaled Composites. In...
So, as Moe alludes, would Kirk come to the NX-01 family by way of the Nexus? That is, would we be seeing Kirk's "echo" (given that Guinan's "echo" resides there)?
