Any trekkers in the house ? I just recently discovered Enterprise and have been downloading the episodes from iTunes. Well written stuff. I hear they're working on a new series as well.
When the latter series Voyager was on Virgin 1, I pretty much only watched that for Seven of Nine.Enterprise was ok, nothing special. I only really watched it for T'Pol.
The Next Generation is coming out on Blu-ray this year. This clip below shows how much better it looks.

Same.I'm quite partial to the Original series
Which makes it all the more surprising that they haven't kept a Star Trek series going in recent years. There are loads of Star Trek fans everywhere, yet no show to be found.TNG is the shit... Star Trek always grapples with big questions, moral positions, whether to intervene or not and how... It's an on-going dialectic, to a large extent, and that's more than you can say for most shows that reduce these issues to platitudes, mostly.

I find it a bit awkward when they mix characters in the same show/film. TNG characters used to randomly appear in DS9 and Enterprise episodes. Highly unimaginative imo.Just watched Generations - thought it wasn't too bad. They could have made a bit more of Kirk's death
I thought the DS9 one with the Tribbles was pretty well done.I find it a bit awkward when they mix characters in the same show/film. TNG characters used to randomly appear in DS9 and Enterprise episodes. Highly unimaginative imo.
It was a classic IMO.I thought the DS9 one with the Tribbles was pretty well done.
one of the best DS9 ep's.I thought the DS9 one with the Tribbles was pretty well done.
cant see it being that cheap , 7 series with 178 eps on Blu-ray , thats a lot of disks.When I was a kid, I just wanted to see space battles.
As a grew older, I appreciated that more and more. By the time I was old enough to really enjoy it, it was gone though... sad story. I hope those Blu-rays are affordable.
the 'enterprise' being a prequal series did explain it, some dodgy klingon scientists tried to use some superhuman dna to make super klingons thus making the ridges disappear for a generation or so .one of the best DS9 ep's.
Mind you I did want them to explane how the Klingon's got the ridges on there head , it was skipped over by Worf.
ah cheers , not seen all of Enterprise , on my HD to watchthe 'enterprise' being a prequal series did explain it, some dodgy klingon scientists tried to use some superhuman dna to make super klingons thus making the ridges disappear for a generation or so .
ds9 is the best trek series and different to tng in that it had long arcs whilst tng had stand alone episodes.not a great fan of tng ,although 'yestrerday's enterprise ' is one of my all time favs along with the one with datas daughter
DS9 i did like with the dominion.
TOS will always have a special place
voyager was hit and miss
for me though FARSCAPE beats trek.
as for the films the recent reboot was exellent ,undiscovered country and the voyage home and the wrath of khan were the best of the rest.
I just finished season 3....about to go into 4 (although I've already seen a few season 4 episodes including the final).Dont listen to the critics! enterprise was ace...specially the last season.
season 4 is fantastic. i dont why the cnuts cancelled it and more importantly why there's no more star trek.I just finished season 3....about to go into 4 (although I've already seen a few season 4 episodes including the final).
the 3 bluray episodes are floating around the interwebs.Enterprise was ok, nothing special. I only really watched it for T'Pol.

DS9 is brilliant. the best trek.Loved Next Generation and pretty much all the movies. Even liked Voyager but never got into DS9 or Enterprise
Deanna Troi may have been responsible for my 1st ever wank
That needs its own threadStar Trek Into Darkness
Whats he screwed up?One of the few things JJ Abrams seems to have not been able to screw up...yet
Seems to be a bit heavy on the special effects but looks good and Cumberbatch is more than likely going to steal the show
