*rolls eyes* If what writing staffs did on one series was identically carried over when they started on another, then Voyager would have been like TNG.
So if B&B don't pay homage to hackneyed 60s elements like ripped shirts, they're dishonouring Gene? Please. We (thankfully) didn't see too much of Kirk's chest in the films, did we? And we did see Picard sans shirt several times, FWIW.

Voyager wasn't more like TNG because Braga's power grew gradually. He used his temporal reset button as a writer several times in TNG, starting with "Cause and Effect" and ending with "All Good Things..." By Voyager, he became the predominant writer and later co-executive producer. And guess what? He used his reset button whenever he got the chance. See Year of Hell, Future's End, Timeless and Endgame, for example.
You're mistaken. I don't worship at the shrine of Roddenberry. He was badly overrated and stole credit from others, both subtly and aggressively. I'm just saying these guys have as big egos as he did and would rather use their own gimmicks rather than his.
I don't remember ever seeing a barechested Picard. In a tank top, yes, but never barechested. Ditto with Janeway, although as I wrote, I'm sure a few guys would have tuned in to see her barechested.

We've also apparently forgotten that Picard was the only captain to appear buck-ass naked.

"Captain's Holiday?" Mmmmm. I'd like to see barechested Vash. Now that you mention it, I guess Picard was barechested in the climax of BoBW. Although they gave equal time to Deanna in Menage a Troi.

Haha, my friend is actually watching to see Cpt. Archer minus his shirt. I was going to post a link she gave me, but I can't find it.
Anyone wonder what the "uniforms" are going to look like?
