The Trek

Kirk set the bar for Starfleet captains, Picard I think is a great follow-up to captain Kirk. In my opinion Star Trek: The Original had a lot more action. "TNG" is more of a drama.

Oh true that, and I wasn't saying Picard is a bad follow-up at all, he's grand, but nothing compared to Kirk, you know, just,

if you haven't seen it yet, go see Star Trek: Wrath of Khan.

'nough said. ^^
 
I respect both opinions, everyone has their own.

But still, Picard did turn into the Borg.
 
and he F$#@&%@ ownd them he is the best and i think jhimian or what ever thinks the same
 
Anyone seen the pilot episodes of the original series? Those few episodes are rarely shown on t.v. Captain pike is the captain for those few episodes then kirk takes over after.
 
i have never even heard of them but i bet jhimian's dad has seen them cause his dad is a huge trek fan
 
There is an episode in the original series where kirk and crew are stopped by aliens who would like to take kirks visitor 'captain pike' back to there home planet to live out his final days with them.

This particular episode makes references to those pilot episodes when pike was a younger man and met those aliens when he used to be a captain.

In the pilot episodes only spock is in the original crew.

When the pilot episodes were concluded kirk was the new captain and there was a new crew but with spock still in it.

This is good trivia in case you are ever asked this question in a quiz

"Who is the original captain"?
 
Very interesting, btw, my dad loves the original series but, he grew up watching TNG and Voyager.
 
Not exactly a nerd, he is more of a "treky." He has a collection of Star Trek figures, ships, and other collectables. He is still trying to find an original Trek uniform.
 
He isn't really worried about collecting anymore, he is nearly 53 years old. Right now he just watches the re-runs and re-live them over and over again. Now he is into Star-Gate SG-1, and the new Battlestar Gallactica.

duude, liek, ~star wars foh lief~
 
I'am more balanced on both. Star Wars was my first love. I enjoy watching the movies over and over again. It was the story i fell in love with. George Lucas did an excellent job of mixing mythology, romance, dramatic irony, and futuristic combat. I love Star Trek for the adventures. When I'm watch it, it is like opening a preasent on Christmas morning, you never know what you might get. May Gene Roddenberry rest in peace.
