I agree. Even though there are some fairly minor similarities (whoa, a space station, whopee!!), the storylines and backgrounds were so dissimilar that I could never see any plagiarism. But I must admit, there are some episodes on both shows I never saw.

Also, Atrocities, I agree that ST 2 was the best of the movies, but there's one thing about the movie that's been bugging me for 22 years now. Who were Khan's crew? They looked way too young to be his original co-fugitives; and they looked too old to be 13 or 14 year olds, as this movie happened about 15 years after the Space Seed episode. And Joachim wasn't the original actor either; they used a younger actor. Anybody got a clue?

I honestly don't know the answer to this. It has been debated for many years, but I personally think that the crew we saw in ST II were primarly made up of crew members that we did not see in Space Seed.

Ever wonder why Kahn recognized Chekov even though he was not in the episode?

Walter K. explained this once at a convention that I attened for work. (News Pass)

He stated that he was working the night shift and was not feeling so good. On his way to the bridge he had to stop and use one of the Crew restrooms. Khan in the mean time could not get his toilet to work and you know after being frozen for 200 years, he had to go pretty damn bad. So he ran out of his quarters and went right to the same crew restroom that Chekov was using. Needless to say Chekov told him to wait and Kahn being Khan ripped the door open, grabbed poor Chekov lifting him into the air and said, "I will never foget your face!" Then threw him to the corridor deck and stepped into the restroom and closed the door.

If he said it went down this way, who are we to argue.

IIRC, I heard the similar story from George Takei at the only Star Trek convention I've ever attended in Phoenix. It is a funny story, even if it may not be true.

As far as the ST Franchise, I've enjoyed it all. So they mess up the continuity. So what! Just enjoy the ride!

Most people don't know this, but there was going to be a second Star Trek series featuring the original crew. They went so far as to have models made and some scripts were written. But for whatever reason, they made ST:TMP instead. One wonders what that series may have been like.

TNG: I like the whole series but I like the Offspring (Data makes another android) and The first one with Hyu .. (the borg... I don't know how its spelled) best.

Voyager: Endgame

DS9: Whole show, prolly the ones at the end best.

Enterprise: the one they meet the Romulans for the first time, don't know the title.

OK! I can't type well. Let me clarify my Last post. go to the mentioned link. A number of people have gotten together to make episodes of TOS. They got different actors and it's low budget. These will only be available for download
