Welcome to the board TrekkiEternal. Yes, they may have done something interesting that no one bothered to mention in the previous 3 series or movies, but they have a 7 year run and no doubt during some of that time, you'd think they'd do something historical. Anyhow, I was more on the "future of the Trek universe" angle than going back in time to pre-BOTF and mucking with history so I'm probably a little biased, although I will give it a chance.

Yah, I thought setting it in the past was a little odd. Guess there won't be any more crossover possibilities (with the exception, of course, of the annual quota of time traveling).
I hope it's good. I'm disappointed that they haven't really given us much of a preview in the TV commercials. I want to see teasers, not just read about/find out about them online.
I hope we're not all just going to watch for good-looking cast members. (I know that's what one of my friends is doing in regards to Scott Bakula, the soon-to-be captain. And I've read somewhere here at Flare about a good-looking Vulcan T'Pau or something like that.) Focusing on Seven in Voyager was bad enough...

One of your friends is casting Scott Bakula in their television show because they think he's hot? Huh.

It makes much more sense when the first part reads "I hope they're not just going to cast for good-looking cast members..."
Not a great deal more. And the question of why you would want to read it that way would, if answered, provide a fair amount of insight into my internal psychology.

Yeah, and we all know Paramont doesn't get it's cast members for sex appeal or ratings boosts *coughs*Jeri Ryan*coughs*

Werd. I laughed, too...even knowing Tim-san's predicament.

Trekki: Yes, we are well aware of your gender. However, in order to allow the moderators to insert hidden coded messages from one to another in their posts, the odd letter has to disappear.
And the star system in which we live has been named Simon for a good twenty years or so.

I think Tim & I get the award for having the suck-assest love lives in the forum. Although methinks that with my reconciliation with Heather (yeah, I know that was quick...but..bonds...yeah.), he's gonna take the lead.
I look forward to making my own announcement to be cheerfully tanked with miserabality.
