I agree that the original Enterprise looks pretty nice but it's not very practical and can barely stand its ground against an enemy shuttle! :PRetroKingSimonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05609689348601442117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5455082771543433548.post-67828136109351848502011-11-03T18:58:51.795+00:002011-11-03T18:58:51.795+00:00Although I agree the design of the various ships i...Although I agree the design of the various ships in Star Trek are not great but come on - The original movie era Enterprise is sooooooooo sexy! 32 years old, and it still looks awesome! :o)<br /><br />Few things I totally hate about TNG era.<br /> <br />- Everyone only listens to classical music. Anything else is frowned upon (ie. Season 4 - Suddenly Human)<br />- Holodeck stories - seriously, if the holodeck is that dangerous, I'm sure Starfleet would ban it!<br />- Some of the awful child actors they had during the shows run. Really irritating.<br /><br />Oh well... that's my addition to your list!Stuart Wilsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03563317685000757547noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5455082771543433548.post-1009160155715392432011-11-01T11:17:43.518+00:002011-11-01T11:17:43.518+00:00Thanks Sean :) I'm just joking really, most of...Thanks Sean :) I'm just joking really, most of the bad things about Star Trek are part of what makes the show unique. I think the only one that genuinely annoys me is that the Federation are such a bunch of wussies. All the other races are always pulling some sort of sneaky crap, why don't we just kick their arse?! :PRetroKingSimonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05609689348601442117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5455082771543433548.post-39390342700901766172011-10-30T09:49:34.798+00:002011-10-30T09:49:34.798+00:00Good post.

If they had a revolving door cast it would make things a bit more interesting, but we`d loose that sense of continuity and attachment to the characters that having them almost never change provides.<br /><br />I actually quite like the Federation ships from the original series and the 80s movies with the original cast. Ironically I think they have stood the test of time much better than the Next Generation (and more recent) ones have.Seanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13681778110046124243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5455082771543433548.post-142016394187462292011-10-27T19:55:16.994+01:002011-10-27T19:55:16.994+01:00Yeah, you're right of course, I was just messi...Yeah, you're right of course, I was just messing around really. I also forgot to mention the mostly-horrible Holodeck episodes when it usually goes wrong as well, of course! I liked Voyager a lot, I watched it all the way through a few months back. It has perhaps the most satisfying of Trek final episodes too :)RetroKingSimonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05609689348601442117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5455082771543433548.post-46763754733209768322011-10-27T19:42:58.541+01:002011-10-27T19:42:58.541+01:00But these things are what make ST warm, welcoming ...But these things are what make ST warm, welcoming and familiar! :D<br /><br />I always liken Star Trek to watching a soap designed for geeks. The wafer thin characters, the identikit plots, the cheap sets/props and tight deadlines resulting in poor takes making the cut. But I still love it. All the flaws just give it character.<br /><br />I even liked Voyager.Marchttp://www.gameandwrite.co.uknoreply@blogger.com
