It's funny, but now that they've replaced the special effects in the original Star Trek, Next Generation looks really dated. Especially on a HDTV.

Of course, I did have to deal with that Move Along Home episode in Season One, quite possibly the worst Star Trek episode ever. |

Never really watched DS9 or Babylon 5 all that much. Might have to start checking them out.

Because it's original run was syndicated..? And since the ratings declined ofer time I figure the paramount brass just said **** it and focused on floating Voyager.

If you think the first 3 seasons were good, you are going to orgasm when you watch the final season. |

Practical effects seem to age so much better than CGI, especially early CGI. Although on the other hand, it can be hard not to cringe when watching Space 1999 or 70s Doctor Who or Blake's 7. |

DS9 rocks, but I really hated the ending and was pissed when Terry Farrel quit the show. The writers just didn't seem to know what to do without her. I felt like that story line was tragically botched. However, Quark and Bashir just kept getting better. I loved the twist regarding Bashir's talent. Those two are definitely near the top on my favorite Trek characters.

Basically it's about a secret government department that collects and protects "artifacts", that each have some sort of special magical powers. Generally bad guys get their hands on an artifact and use it to steal or kill, or maybe destroy the world. It's got a good balance of cool toys, humor, hotties, and scifi based action. Good casting.

I love the updated effects they did for ToS. They didnt overdo it, they still maintain the look without feeling out of place.

I have now watched the first 5 episodes of BSG. The writing is awkward in places. The acting leaves a lot to be desired. But the direction and storytelling is outstanding.
I might be getting hooked. |
