But, what series will I actually shell out money for to get it on DVD?

Babylon 5.

Great answer!

Oops! Triple post! Anyway, MOM and I would watch Bab5 together. The Sweet memories! Voyager jumped the shark!! GW I strongly disagree with you on that. The new show ENT has jumped the shark big time! But I do agree about the new SW movies. They suck a great many things!

Voyager jumped the shark. Enterprise set it on fire, put it through hoops, hog-tied it, twirled it over our heads, then jumped it.

I love the military feel and look of Star Wars. I love the way the Star Wars universe is set up, but I just love the Star Trek ships and weapons more. Sorry.

How about star wars meets star trek - the deathstar up against the borg sphere ship ? Or the earth allaince on one point- up against the federation up against the dark side led by darth vader.

Somebody posted a link to a piece of fanfic on what would happen if Star Wars met Star Trek. I for one had always assumed that Star Trek would beat Star Wars (after all, phasers will disintegrate you, bLasters just cauterize you), but this story changed my mind.

I would wager a million credits that the Enterprise E would waste the Avenger in a head to head battle.

Enterprise E has shields, torpedos, and phasers.

The Avenger has turbo lasers, and fighters.

As we all know a single federation phaser array can target and destroy multiple smaller objects.

Additionally, the Enterpise E has war drive which is mainy times faster than hyper space drive which the Avenger sports.

Manuaverability. Enterprise hands down.

This debate when on for years. First it was with the Enterprise A, then D, and now E. I recall a site where they programed the varables into a program and simulated what would happen. The Enterprise D obliterated the Star Destroyer.

And to boot, the people who set this up were star wars fans and they did not want to report what happened but eventually did.

Then someone took it a step further and made a 3d mock battle. (3d Artist forum and support site).

Again the Star Destroyer was beaten.

Come to think of it, they did it all, B5 vs SW vs ST vs BSG all in one huge mutli - scifi space battle. Very cool.
