    Worried?

    No.

    I notice that I never, ever, include ENT. I couldn't get past the theme song.

    Hmmmm, well, Roddenberry's vision was just too shiny.

    The Klingons weren't mad enough.

    The Son of God ending to Bread and Circuses still annoys me.

    However it was the original and if we didn't have it then we wouldn't have the others. When I got the DVD sets I picked DS9 first which surprised me but that's what I did. I didn't like it when the BBC ran it first but they bounced it all over the schedule.

    I like a lot of the TNG episodes, but it's been shown so much on Channel 4 and Sky 1 and Syfy and CBS to the point that I'm a bit tired of most of its output. I did like Season 6, though, particularly the episodes with Reg Barclay, and the one with the Exocomps.

    But I probably prefer Voyager more, partly because of Kate Mulgrew's performance and partly because I enjoyed the EMH characterisation, even if it was a little too close to Data.

    Kate Mulgrew wasn't the first choice.

    The end of VOY annoys me. Where did that Seven & Chakote thing come from?

    I agree with the Data vs Doctor thing but Robert Picardo was so good it was worth it. I think he developed more than Data. Data was a mirror for humanity. Picardo was a lot more fun.

    I really enjoyed the Capt Proton episodes, Kes and the Kazon weren't so much fun.

    The jj Abrams movie of the prequel to the original series is best movie version.

    I loved Bones - For god sake Spock are you out of your Vulcan mind

    In the Picard Borg movie with Alice Krige as Borg Queen, Picard infuriates Mr Worf by calling him a coward to get him to smash the place up. Then at those end he tells him he was lying and that Worf is the braver man he knows. But I say CORRECTION Worf is a male Klingon not a man

    I would also note that earlier in that film Worf puts down a phaser rifle on the outside of the Enterprise hull and it stays put. Did the rifle have magnetic boots on?

    I liked Alice Krige a lot and I think that movie has the best score.

    Everybody knows that Kaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahn is the best movie. It has no silly red matter in it just a wee goof about Chekov.

    How about some bridge buffoonery?

    or perhaps recall, if you will, a time in 1972, when a crack commando unit was sent to prison.

    I like how the Vulcan harp sort of comes in with the guitar and Shatner's signature flying jump kick thing.

    Proud that I didn't understand the poll without reading the thread.

    I'm loving the Picard song. Has a nice New Order vibe to it.

    I don't understand the thread....

    (Well obviously I have some concept of what it is about, but that's it.)

    "I don't understand the thread"

    Best not try.

    Just put in the tiny box for 'extreme CCE thread hijack".
