Oh, boy....
Where to begin? Where to being?

Unfortunatley they nevery nailed this down properly in the series. Somany time X light years was Y days and in another episode it was Z days. It wa terrible.

Never should have let Kes go and replaced her with 7. Sure she was a better story piece, but Kes what a much better character, espcially with her hair down.

It was better than Enterprise
Enterpirse Season one: Hello introductions
Season two: Mission of Vengence
Season three: Now what can we do.
Season four: building to Romulan War.
Part of Enterprise were sad but it was specific episodes of each season, and the fact that season three was kind listless.
Lord Skimper wrote:I liked the first couple seasons of Enterprise, the later time travelling story line was just too stupid.
Agreed. Then after the time traveling it was good again, straight through the end.
Lord Skimper wrote:Voyager was great for something and then went off the rails on other stories. Really scraping the bottom of the barrel with some of those stories. Too many goody two shoes stories.
Yes but that was the whole point. The rules were the grounding they needed to survive being out of touch for so long.
Lord Skimper wrote:Remember Starfleet is Communism with a board line facist military. Good thing McCarthism died before the original Star Trek or Roddenberry would have been locked up.
Actually the Federation would be communist. And on paper communisim works, as long as everyone contributes, not that it will ever really happen, and no one has permenant control.
Lord Skimper wrote:These latest movies are crazy. All visuals loud music and no story. Nothing original either but that is the current situation in the film industry.
Very true, but I think the purpose behind them was to attact the younger and new audience to Trek in general, not to be great new trek for the rest of us. And it has worked.
Lord Skimper wrote:One wonders if Star Trek will get back to the excellent DS9 series sometime. 25 years later or 125 years later things should be getting interesting there again.
DS( is done in my opinion, and I think it was the best show of them all. A reunion movie, maybe, but thats it. I liked the ending.

Mirror Mirror! One of the greatests ever. Remember there is an alternate you out there, the same but oppistie.
