Star Trek

[speedymama]

Calling all fans!

Which is your favourite series?

For me, in order

1. Star Trek - the original
2. Next Generation
3. Deep Space 9
4. Vogager

Hated Enterprise.

My favourite Star Trek characters of all time are Spock (for his dispassionate intellect) and Worf (his struggle for loyality to the Federation without betraying his own people)

My favourite episodes of all time are The Menagerie (Original), The Visitor (Next Generation) and I love the episodes in DS9 regarding the conflict between the Founders who want to spread their Dominion empire and the Federation.

Best baddies ever are the Klingons and the Gem 'Hadar (DS9).

1. Voyager
2. Original series
3. DS9
4. Next Gen

Can't bear Enterprise either! Oh from the very moment that godawful theme tune opens it up... ugh!

I adore Spock, Voyager's Doctor, Data, Janeway, Kira and Bashir.

Best baddies are the Borg (pre the Borg Queen).

Fave episodes are any with Q in.

I like the original series but I never really got into the others and gave up watching them. I used to have a lot of the novels, wish I'd kept them now.

"Trouble with Tribbles" anyone? .

Trouble with Tribbles - brilliant!

Loved the way they dealt with the different styles of Klingons on the Trouble with Tribbles... Wasn't it something like Worf saying "don't ask, it's a long story..." and leaving it at that?

speedymama - dh has all the trailers for the "new" Star TRek original series. They've remastered all the old special effects but run it through a filter so it still looks like they were made in the 60s. Difficult to explain, but looks strangely convincing.

Have you seen them? If not I'll see if I can find the URLs.

Not a trekkie as such but brought up with anything and everything to do with ST and married a trekkie.

So:
Hate Original series with a passion.
Liked some of STNG, but only cos I was young and foolish and fancied Wesley - sigh.
DS9 was a bit up it's own bum towards the end, but I liked the early stuff.
REally liked Voyager
Enterprise was a pile of pants.

Best film Star TRek 4
Rule of thumb for ST films - odd numbers = pants; even numbers = good. eg number 1 - STar trek the Motionless Picture

for me, Early DS9
then NG
Then ST
Then Voyager

loathed Enterprise

Loved Quark, hated 'blubber' Sisko....did that man never stop weeping????

Loved both the original Tribbles and the 'hoamge' one

DS9
Next Generation
Voyager
Original series

Didn't like Enterprise.

Favourite character - Worf - I love him.

Does anyone like Enterprise?

Bobsmum, I have all the trailers for the original series too.

Agree about The Trouble with Tribbles. Another favourite is Space Seed when we are first introduced to Khan.

Did anybody else notice the continuity error in The Wrath of Khan? Chekhov was not in the original episode so how did Khan know who he was? In the film Khan says "I don't know you, but you I know, I never forget a face, Mr Chekhov (or words to that effect).

The Borg are excellent baddies. Does anyone remember Hugh the Borg in Voyager?

Also does anyone else believe, like me, that creating Seven of Nine actually saved Voyager from the nadir of mediocrity?

Star Trek:Generations has a special space in my heart because DH and I went to see it at the cinema on our first date.

1.Voyager
2.Next Generation
3.DS9
4.Enterprise

Loved origional series when I was about 12 but now find it a bit like salt n vinegar crunchy sticks - ok for a nostalgia hit but not for everyday consumption.

Best baddies for me are the Borg but do love Q who was a goodie/baddy

I would "make it so" for Jean Luc Picard any day

Couldnt get into Enterprise at all, and thought DS9 disappeared up its own towards the end. I like the rest though.

re the different types of klingons, my Mum (a real trekkie) read one of the novels which explained it - something to do with co-existing factions that became so separated that they began to look different.

Or something like that!

Speedymama - HUgh the Borg was in Next Generation.
my fave is Voyager, girl power and all that!
never got into DS9 or Enterprise, could not get over that it was more advanced than the original! and just saw Archer as the guy from Quantum Leap so could not handle the transition!
my fave episodes of Voyager are the ones when they end up in the 20th century time line and the last two final episodes when Janeway comes back from the future with a way back going through the Borg nebula. excellent!

Mine and DH's are 1)TNG
2)Voyager (me) DS9 (DH)
3)DS9 (me) Voyager (DH)
4)TOS (DH)
Couldn't get into Enterprise. DH fave is worf. I like 7. Engage! :0

even, oops. scuse i am new at this!

1. Voyager
2. Deep space nine
3. Next Gen
4. Original

Janeway is my heroine she's decent and commanding and clever and compassionate
Best baddies are The Borg.

Agreed. Resistance is futile.

1. Next Gen
2. Voyager
3. Original
4. DS9

I love anything with a holodeck gone awry, and the Borg are fantastic: I love the way they move and there's something chillingly familiar about their particular bad-ness. (I heard once they were meant to be a metaphor for communism, the way lots of 1950s horror creatures were.)

I swooned over Worf for a while but then lost interest in him.

I watch Next Gen sometimes with my 7 yr old son and don't really like the series as much as I used to. Maybe I've grown up!

I looooove Star Trek. Mine are:

1. Next Generation
2. Voyager
3. Enterprise

Never liked the original series and detested DS9. Why was it always so dark? It was like trying to watch the show through a bedsheet. I did like the one woman with the spots up her neck (whatever her name was) but hated the captain so much I couldn't get past it to watch any of them. He was such a whiny crybaby.

Really my #1 and 2 choices are a tossup. I love them both!
