>>>(sigh) No, got too many other things to do. :-) I tune it in once in a while but not regularly. I just never developed the interest in STNG ( and its derivatives ) that I did in ST. Yeah ... I guess I'm just a heretic. :-)

>I can see that. Considering the difference in budgets ( even accounting for the time difference ) I would expect them to do a better technical job. And most of the ones I've seen I liked pretty well. There's just something about the aura of the original that will always stick with me. Plus, I was the rights age at the time for it to "grab" me. :-)

I think that the stories are so much better now. It "grabbed" me after I finally broke down and watched one episode. It'll be interesting to see what the new series, Enterprise, is like.
