Two words is that it needs work.

It has alot of potential, but it is starting off to much like Voyager with the Alien of the Week theme.

 

I like it Wolfe and like other series it will probably get better with time.

By the way, nice to meet you

 

LOL you too.

Hopefully, it will get better. I can't dream of a world with out star trek... Just hope it never happens!

 

I can't dream of a world with out star trek...

I can. Flowers are blooming, peace is achieved, people are happy... It's a utopia, I tell you!

 

Personally, I find that I'm liking the characters much more quickly in this series.

In DS9, I didn't like anyone right away. But by the end, I was impressed by almost everyone.

With Voyager, there were only 3 characters I ever liked, Seven, Chakotay, and the Doctor.....but even they had their weak moments.

IMHO, Dr. Phlox is the best doctor of any of the series'. He's my favourite character on Enterprise by far. Archer ain't bad, and I like the fact that he's a bit more rough, and unpolished than Picard. Trip is a blast, and T'Pol....well.....I'll leave it at that.

Character development is quite key for this series, too. In some cases, it's great. In the fourth episode, "Dear Doctor", there's the argument between Phlox and Archer that I think could be one of the best moments in Trek history. But, there are also weak points.....the Episodes where Hoshi has been the centre of the "A" plot, have all bored me....

Anyways, there's a superficial read on my thoughts of the series.

 

Hi TLW, I have not spoken to you in ages !!!

 

that really is kinda funny, Phlox is the character i hate the most! They either don't seem to give him enough attention or they give him too much attention! Is it me or have we NEVER seen him out of sickbay? I know it worked on Voyager for a few years but they have to remember that he isn't a hologram.

DS9 i think by far has the best acting cast of any of the series.

Rene Auberjonois(Odo) has done 24 movies including: The Patriot, Geppetto, The Little Mermaid, King Kong, and M*A*S*H.

Andrew Robinson(Garek) has done 13 movies including: Childs Play, Hell Raiser, and Dirty Harry

Armin Shimerman(Quark) had a recuring role on more than one tv series at a time as he did Buffy in the same years as DS9

Avery Brooks(Sisko) has done 9 movies including: The Big Hit, 15 Minutes, and American History X

And finally

Colm Meanly(Obrien) had done 22 movies including: Die Hard 2, Mystery Alaska, Con Air, Far and Away, Last of the Mohicans, and Newly released BackFlash.

 

LOL @ At_60.
I can't contribute anything to this conversation, but CrazyMike, what's this about you having kids on the Toronto Board?

(keep talking about Star Trek...move along...)

 

Yes Debbie, I sort of have my own fan club now. I do not know how it started

I really enjoy DS9 too have and have all of the original, tng, Ds9, Voyager, and Enterprise episodes on tape, LD, or dvd.

 

Wow... I just have the first 3 seasons of TNG...

Can i be your new best friend mike?

 

Sure Wolf, I am a big fan and have been for many many years. You should come by for a visit some time dude as I am in Burlington...

 

I have most of Voyager and Enterprise on tape, but I'm not quite the fan that Peter's family is. They are HUGE fans. They even have a movie they made when they went to Disney- (Land or World) in Florida where they were Star Trek characters. I've only seen two of the Origional series movies.

 

My wife is not a big Trek fan but she will watch Enterprise with me...

 

I always thought it was funny that for special effects, Star Trek uses ILM.

 

I do too

 

Maybe they're just trying to get at your collection Naw, Matt I thought I was your best friend! ;(

 

Um... well you are! a person can have more than one best friend!

Your just my best best friend!

 

What's up with our banner, or is it just me that can't see it?

 

I can see it.

 

If any of you have access to a car, I am having some of the Toronto gang over on
Feb 15th, if you would like to come by...

 

D'oh! No car. Robert's coming up that weekend. Boo-earns! Let me know for next time.

 

Oh well, next time then Debbie. Any one else
interested...

 

Sorry Mike, I'm Shoulder deep in work. I know the saying is Knee deep but shoulder seemed more appropriate.

hopefully next time though!

 

I do have a car, but I work Saturdays. Plus with all the driving I have to do this month, gas is rather a large part of my budget already.


BTW, I fixed my keyboard. It now works better than before I took it apart the first time (and messed it up)

 

Well its bad for me...I'm going to St. Catherines with Steph
