[QUOTE]Originally posted by Dukhat: [QB] [QUOTE]I find it very ironic that the bulk of what you just stated applies just as much to TOS (and in some cases more) as it does to TAS. So, are we to accept the gradual "de-canonization" of TOS as well? If they've already done it once, why not again?[/QUOTE]It's funny you mentioned that, because that was exactly what [i]I[/i] was thinking as I was writing my post. [QUOTE]The door must not be opened for this to happen to other series that "stand in the way" of TBTB's (and I'm not talking specifically about Berman & Braga here, I mean anyone in a position of 'power') desires to "re-imagine" the ST continuity.[/QUOTE]But that's exactly what's happening, isn't it? However, although B&B seem to be going out of their way to ignore TOS in favor of TNG/VOY (well, maybe [i]ignore[/i] isn't a good choice of words, but TOS is definitely being swept under the table...), I really don't see anyone "de-canonizing" TOS anytime soon. However, the problem doesn't really lie with B&B liking or disliking TOS. The problem lies with trying to be internally consistent with a show that's had 35 years of existence in some form or other. And whether they really want to. IMHO, I would rather have had a prequel show more in tune with TOS than with TNG/VOY myself. But that's not what we got. And the more that B&B stray from the Original Series, the more things are going to be harder & harder to be explained away. That was my whole point. Unless of course you look at Enterprise as a remake rather than as a sequel. That solves pretty much every continuity issue. [/QB][/QUOTE]
