Kicking off the thread with the general question of...
Which Trek is your favorite?

I'm gonna go with TNG 'cause it's the one that was on when I was growing up. Love Patrick Stewart as 'Captain Picard.' Love the whole cast really, but Picard does it for me.

Hmm..I like TNG alright, and what I saw of DS9 was okay...Voyager isn't bad either. I think that's Mistress's favorite. (And I think it's just a sexist thing: It had a female captain so it wins =P)
Personally I don't care much for it since I learned of Babylon 5. B5 > Star Trek

When I was younger it was TNG hands down. Then they started showing Voyager with weekly syndication. So, VOY was close behind. As it kept showing in reruns almost every night at one point, it tied with TNG. DS9 has always been off and on, but I liked it too - at least for a while. At the moment though... I haven't seen Trek in ages and don't really have a favorite. Although, I've been talking to people about their favorite Trek and for some unexplainable reason DS9 keeps popping up and oddly enough popping up to the top. It seems the thing that brings it home the most for those who like it the best is the reality it brings, seeming the most "real" when compared to our actual reality and the people and personal relationships. I think that goes for all the Treks though; most if not all the Treks have been great with character relationships. In some cases I think its what even drives most of the episodes. As for the tangent I'm afraid I'll go into with BB5... I don't think I saw enough of it to actually get into it and like it as much as the fans of BB5. What makes it a little more weird? At Ausgate, instead of joining a stargate related faction I joined the Babylon 5 faction. Go figure! Yup, I've managed an extreme tangent. Surprise surprise. I should stop here... ;D

TNG is my favourite though I liked them all, except DS9. Ds9 was just dull and boring and should never have made it past the first season, let alone all the way through seven. As for Babytlon 5? The only thing that made that show was the CGI. The writing was sub-standard and the acting terrible. It was even worse than DS9.

Although for the most part I thought DS9 was dull and boring, there were some episodes that I remember watching and liking. Even though they were far and few at the time, I'll still admit it.

I liked a lot of the acting in B5, some of it wasn't as good, but some of it was. The writing was actually a lot better than Star Trek, imo.

The only thing B5 had over DS9 was they knew not to drag it out where as DS9 didn't know when to quit. But neither show should have gone on as long as it did and how B5 got a spin off show simply baffles me.

B5 had continuation, it was a big story. DS9 just like...was random from episode to episode. All Star Treks seem to be that way. It doesn't flow....
Eh it had a spinoff? I missed that one.

Have you never seen Crusade? I think it's about The Rangers, but I never really watched it. I lost interest when I found out it was a B5 spin off.
