Trek. Ugh. I vote for B5.

Oh alright then, put me down for TNG- Mainly for Patrick Stewart & Brent Spiner, who made so much of their roles.

TOS was crap, Ent was an abomination. I guess DS9 was OK in places.

This is because it stole a few of the good ideas from B5.

Well B5 did nick Checkov from TOS.

Whilst he was excellent, both the actor and character, I never really got over the shock. I always half expected Bester to start talking in bad Russian.

On a topic related note, I just saw DS9 'In The Pale Moonlight.' a few days ago. Damn me that is even better than I remember, possibly one of the best Trek episodes I've ever seen.

Bester has got to be one of the coolest recurring villians of any TV series. And unlike with 99% of ST villians, he actually had more than one aspect to his personality.

Isn't it funny how the poor bastard apparently never made it very far in Starfleet? In the final TOS movie, Sulu is captain of the brand-spankin-new Excelsior, and where's Chekov? Still at the helm of the aging Enterprise... Course, same could be said for Uhuru. Scotty and Bones didn't really have much place to go, but what about poor Pavel Chekov?

I once read that there was an idea running about once during TNG to have an episode where Chekov is discovered by the Enterprise. The idea was that he had been captured by an alien race and held prisoner since TOS. I don't know how they would handle his age, but the idea was that he would be bitter at the idea that the Federation had abandoned him to a POW camp.

If I remember correctly... Bones became the head of Starfleet Medical... not bad for a country doctor.

Uhura and Checkov were both Senior Academy instructors as mentioned in the later movies.

While Scotty wrote just about every techincal manual and engineering spec on ships and components created in his time (From TNG episode).

So you cannot say that any of them did poorly. Each rose to the top of their area.
