    I always liked how Trials and Tribblations treated the tech/aesthetic differences between TOS and DS9. They didn’t redress sets or update things to be more contemporary, they just went with “this is how this era was” and wrote a fun story around it.

    I also loved how they acknowledged how different the way the Klingons looked in TOS. Yes, they did not have an answer yet, but I love Worf's uncomfortable look when the waitress is pointing out the Klingons around the bar and knowing that the question was coming.

    I have to tell this story. My mother, who is no longer with us, loved James Kirk. She loved him so much that she bought me some star trek posters just so she could swipe the James T Kirk poster. When Star Trek Generations came out, I took her to see the movie. After the movie ended we left the theater. My mom was very quiet as we walked to my car. Unable to stand it any longer I asked her what she thought of the movie. In a very grumbly tone she declared "They killed the wrong Captain."

    Aw. Nobody will ever understand how hard it was for us original Trekkies. Back then, TOS was the first and only show of its kind. (Television hadn't even been invented/available for many years, and color was just becoming available. And we only had THREE networks to choose from.) With an alien who didn't want to kill us, conquer us, eat us. With so many Human problems (hunger, poverty) solved, now ready to explore an amazing universe. We fell in love with those original characters. They WERE ST to us.

It was an on screen portrayal of how the fans felt about her death, as much the writers apologizing for being so insensitive.

    As for the Borg in Enterprise: it opens up a new wrinkle into Q's character: he didn't just randomly introduce Starfleet to the Borg, gaining their interest to have them come to the Alpha quadrant. It means that they were already on the way, the Federation wasn't prepared, and Q knew it. This means that Q was actually acting as a hero to prepare us for the coming threat.

    You just realized that? He said as much during the episode. "Oh. Well, you may not trust me, but you do need me. You're not prepared for what awaits you. Capt. Picard : How can we be prepared for that which we do not know? But I do know that we are ready to encounter it. You judge yourselves against the pitiful adversaries you've encountered so far - the Romulans, the Klingons. They're nothing compared to what's waiting. Picard - you are about to move into areas of the galaxy containing wonders more incredible than you can possibly imagine - and terrors to freeze your soul." Q had somehow already taken a liking to Picard (maybe some sort of time bending thing as they don't live through time the way we do supposedly) but he was there to help. It was weird how he was helping though! LOL

    Okay, I was around 30 when Next Gen started, and I can guarantee you that there were no Star Trek fans that had never seen the original series. NONE. TOS had been playing in reruns for nearly two decades by then. If you were too young to have seen it in its first run, you had spent afternoons after school watching it. If you were into ST at all, you knew TOS. There simply wasn't any way to avoid it if you were a science fiction fan.

    I liked the way Yar died in "Skin of Evil." She went out like a red shirt, and her death wasn't the resolution to the episode. Also, I could have sworn Sela shows up at the end of "The Mind's Eye." And "Lower Decks" (the TNG episode) was a reward because of its tie-in to "The First Order." We also had Star Trek novels between the cancellation of the original series (which was in syndication) and the first movie.

    I never saw Yar's original death as "meaningless." She died trying to save the life of her friend--Troi. Sure she didn't save the day, but that doesn't delete the fact she was there trying. The one who gets a "meaningless" death is Garrett, who gets robbed of her great contribution to the Federation. We have so few women captains, I always regreted Garrett being yet another in a long line of folks dying with something stuck in their foreheads (which was a trend for a while there in TNG) instead of the great unifier for the Federation/Klingons.

    1:13 I was at a Trek convention in the 90's that had the big three: Shatner, Nimoy and Kelley. I remember thinking that D. Kelley seemed like such a nice guy. I didn't interact with him, but he spoke with such passion and compassion, I couldn't help but notice. (I sometimes wonder if anyone had a camcorder...I would like to see that convention again.)

    I was a huge TNG fan. And loved the movies. I never really appreciated First Contact until after I came home from my first combat tour and actually got to know my grandpa and his experience as a POW in Japan. I only watched First Contact once after he passed. And I don’t know if I can ever bring myself to watch it again. “The line must be drawn HERE! And I, will make them pay, for what they have done!!!!” I don’t hate the Japanese and neither did Grandpa. He was able to let his feelings go. But that line. And how I could see Grandpa in Stewart. Really hits me like a brick.

    Picard was a combination of alot of good ideas with next to no direction and a dreadful plot. For example, a possible origin story for the borg: Good idea! The romulan star explosion event and the evacuation story and how it changed the alpha quadrant (and spawned the abrahmsverse) Good idea! Picking up the loose thread of data's death and possible survival in B4 and how his greatest fear of an enslaved android race being created in the federation came to fruition, Good idea! Brining back jeri ryan as the nexus point and subsequent second lead character in the story, Excellent idea! Giving stewart total creative control and then attempting to cobble all of these ideas together in one season with no expectations of there being a season 2 let alone three and thus having no room for flow or natural story progression as in past ST series? A dreadful horrible decision.

    This movie had two good moments there at the end. The first one is when Spock tells Admiral Cartwright to “arrest yourself” and shows up with Valeris in tow; Cartwright knows the gig is up. The second is when the Klingon woman (I forgot the name) tells Kirk, “You’ve restored my faith in humanity”, and Kirk tells her, “and you’ve restored my son’s.”

    As an aside, I think one of the big reasons we look so fondly upon TNG is the fact that so many of us grew up with it. It was our first Star Trek. And there's good reason for the 3rd season being when it got good. It was when it finally started to break away from the meddling of Gene Roddenberry. Don't get me wrong, the man had some great ideas and we wouldn't have TNG without him. However, he was lacking as a leader. But another spot where TNG thrived was character development. TOS would rarely develop the characters meaningfully, focussing on the mission at hand. TNG was pretty much the same in season 1, but began to expand in season 2. There are many other things that TNG gave us, but I think most are well understood. It inspired the next generation of humanity to be curious, learn, adapt, and discover. Let's go boldly.

    My favorite line from Generations is when Kirk and Picard are on horseback and Kirk tells Picard “Who am I to argue with the captain of the Enterprise?” That’s what really really really made me come to grips with the fact that TNG was the new flagship show. And it made me realize that I’d pretty much seen the last ride of James Kirk and his crew.

    I sometimes wonder what Star Trek would be today if The Motion Picture were better. TMP was not bad, the problem was that they took a story that would have worked well as a small screen episode and squandered the budget and amazing visual effects to make it into a movie. Wrath of Khan was a great antidote to that, but if TMP had been done better, future Star Treks could have potentially had a much bigger budget. Would that have made it better? I don't know. But it's interesting to consider.

    On October 19th, 1982, I was waiting to watch Star Trek on a syndicated tv station from New York State as I lived in Montreal. It was a late night showing, and before the show started there was an introduction to the episode, Space Seed, by William Shatner. He was taking about the new movie that was coming out The Wrath of Khan. It was very unexpected to see him telling us about the new movie, but if I remember right there was a lot of shit for doing it. It was long ago so forgive me if I got some details wrong, but I would love you guys to find the original intro by Shatner. Live long and prosper.
