The Star Treks

After getting past the deplorably wretched theme song, my wife and I are really enjoying Enterprise, though I suspect there is some ratings-driven contractual obligation to show people in their undies at least once per episode. For me Phlox is maybe my favorite doctor of any Star Trek series and I feel like T'Pol opens up after the 2nd season.
Voyager is still the last frontier, I've tried a bunch but it's the least watchable of all the franchise for me between Janeway, wooden acting, douchey med hologram, contrived plots...

When I was a kid (70s 80s) I loved TOS. When TNG and all the other ones came on I didn't like them and looked at them as riding the TOS coat tails. Later on I got to enjoying them for what they are- different stories in the same universe.
I’ve never cosplayed, but sometimes you just kind of get impressed by some of the things people do.

Theres one for Spock too. I have it on the dash board of my Jeep.
Thought I'd posted this before, but I didn't find it with the "new-TB" search, so... with apologies for the crap-o-matic cell phone pic, here's a Trek poster I still have:

Love the mirror universe episodes. A younger guy at work left for a while and when he came back he had grown a goatee. A friend of mine and myself stopped calling him by his real name and just called him "Evil Spock".
The first time he did kind of a double take and then got it and from then on he'd just shake his head and smile. Always thought Voyager missed the boat by not having a mirror universe crossover themselves. Imagine Neelix being the ruthless super evil overlord of the Delta quadrant that had committed genocide against the Kazon! I'm talking DARK.
Personally I did not like any of the crossover universe episodes. I can understand the appeal from the actor's POV, inasmuch as they can explore the other side of their persona, but, as far as stories go....bleh!
Def one of my favorites!Love the mirror universe episodes. A younger guy at work left for a while and when he came back he had grown a goatee. A friend of mine and myself stopped calling him by his real name and just called him "Evil Spock".
