[QUOTE]Originally posted by JeffKardde: [QB] [QUOTE]24th century mined out for stories? That's like saying the 20th century is mined out for stories.[/QUOTE] Well, the fact that VOYAGER is reduced to doing what it's doing storywise is kind of evident of that. I think everyone's tried of the new fore-head aliens of the week kind of story that TNG and VOY have done for the past 14 years. DS9 had successful stories because it mixed up the pot a bit -- it wasn't new aliens each week, and that did lend itself to original stories. Any new series is going to have to "shake the pot" to be successful. Now, whether that's jumping forward two-hundred years and setting things up a bit like Andromeda, or going back a few hundred years and setting up the beginning, hopefully, we won't be getting stories of the same quality (and I use the word loosely) of VOYAGER. [QUOTE]The only thing mined out is the creativity of the Berman-Braga team.[/QUOTE] And how many writers from VOYAGER came over to ENTERPRISE ... ? I don't think any did. [QUOTE]We're only going to have a pre-TOS Voyager quality series, folks.[/QUOTE] You might be right. But you know what? It's bad to judge things too soon. Give the show a chance -- because, you might be wrong. [QUOTE]He would already muck up continuity if he is to introduce Klingons on the 2120 AD and has Warp 4 capable ships this time.[/QUOTE] How would this muck up continuity? How do you know 2120 is the year the series will be set? What -- Earth didn't have ships capable of warp travel by the 22nd century? Ooops -- hope you didn't see "First Contact" ... [QUOTE]She already took an active part of the ship's functions, and she is no less Star Fleet than the Maquis who are on board, including Bellana and Chakotay. Even if she is not Star Fleet, that is still no reason to wear a tube sock of a suit.[/QUOTE] Erm. Yeah, sure, except Chakotay WAS in Starfleet before, and Torres came close to it. It's pretty obvious they brought Seven in to make up for the lack of the writing staff. However, this doesn't mean that they'll do the same to T'Pol or T'Pal or whomever, OR that the writing staff will suck. [QUOTE]The guy won a fucking Golden Globe and was nominated for a pair of Emmies, for Chrissakes![/QUOTE] This is the closest I've come to finding [b]The_Tom[/b] using this word. I don't see how it's insulting. He's not calling you a fucking moron, or telling you to get a fucking clue. Although, I think you do need to get a fucking clue. [QUOTE]How do you explain why there isn't another Vulcan in Starfleet before Spock when you have a Vulcan already in a Starfleet predecessor?[/QUOTE] Erm. Well, gee, if it isn't Starfleet ... I don't see the problem. Except that you're looking to make one, and, hey, how do you explain the INTREPID? What, these Vulcans entered Starfleet later than Spock and rose through the ranks fast enough to take command of their own ship? You seem to ignore facts. [QUOTE]Can you imagine a US Navy ship with a foreign citizen under its command ranks? They don't even do this in WWII.[/QUOTE] The USS Winston Churchill has, in its chain of command, a Royal Navy officer. And do you forget Kira? DS9 is a Federation administered space station, yet they've got members of another military within the command staff. And, also on the Defiant, you see foregin nationals (Kira & Odo) in the chain of command. There's already a Star Trek precedent for this. Riker served as XO aboard the Klingon ship "Pagh." He even deposed the captain and assumed command! Ensign Mendon, a Benzite, was also of an officer's exchange program, and served in the Enterprise's Chain of Command. Starfleet also allowed Commander Kurn, a Klingon officer, to serve as Enterprise's XO. [QUOTE]So fucking what.[/QUOTE] Oh, yes, [b]The_Tom[/b] wrote this too. But, this still isn't flaming dude. You realized your arguments sucked my left testicle, and you decided to flame. And then you just starting insulting people. Immaturity RULES! [QUOTE]Four out of five TNG viewers have tuned out of Star Trek in the last years or so.[/QUOTE] And they HAVEN'T done it because of continuity errors, dude. They've done it because of BAD writing! And because DS9 went off the air. [QUOTE]This is about entertainment. The lack of consistency distracts from entertainment.[/QUOTE] No it doesn't. I didn't walk out of THE ROCK because the Air Force was using F-18s (they don't), or because the number of jets changed in almost every shot. [QUOTE]When more people tune out, series are cancelled. [/QUOTE] Well, gee, why wasn't VOYAGER cancelled, then? [/QB][/QUOTE]
