[QUOTE]Originally posted by crobato: [QB] Mr. Tom, Howard did not work for DS9. You can check her BIO in the Star Trek website. All you have pointed out are a variety of set designers and artists. It only means they can make Series V *look* good, but none of these are writers/producers that made the creative core of DS9. You're talking about icing. I am talking about the cake. Let's make it very simple. You can't make DS9 anymore. The creative team has gone on---the core five people who is behind the writing, the vision and the producing. It troubles me more than Sternbach and Biller may be leaving Trek. Biller is the one factor that strengthened Voyager in the last season. In fact the worst seasons of Voyager tend to be the ones with Braga managing it. Now as for Bakula. I am not belittling his acting. I just don't think he has the "command presence" to be a captain. He is not an infallible guy. He has not really done well outside of Quantum Leap or playing another character beyond a Sam Becket persona. Let's look at the competition. Andromeda may be the highest rated syndicated show now. It's last few shows demonstrated great improvement in writing and look. Everyone is looking forward for the second season when it's going to get better budget, better writers and higher profile guest stars. Kevin Sorbo's move from Hercules to Dylan Hunt was pretty good. Sorbo has a strong presence, a deep strong voice, and has consistently played a character that is steadfast to principles and ideals. That helped major going from Hercules to Hunt. But Becket/Bakula has a high voice, heheh "sensitive", "boyish" and constantly whines to Dean Stockwell. I'm not saying people should not give this show a chance. They should. But don't get their hopes up, and don't project your fantasies and ideals into this show. Don't expect highly. The cast list and the leaked pilot have already shown to me a lot of derivation and unoriginality. The fact already that the show is already trying to sell a bit of sex (sexy actress for T'pau) and star brand name, as well as special effects and looks, instead of building a strong creative writing team, is already suggesting to me that this is one glossy show with high production values, but it's not going to have soul, meat, and passion.
