I've been revisiting Star Trek on DVD. It's been awhile...I'd forgotten how much I enjoyed it.
Just a few observations from a new, old fan.
*The show was much funnier than I remembered. Even the heaviest episodes had a chuckle or three.
*James T. Kirk's 5-year mission was obviously to boldly go after every single female in the galaxy.
*Speaking of Kirk...there's an ongoing geek debate over who was the better Enterprise captain, Kirk or Picard. Even a casual observer knows the answer is obviously Kirk. For all the time Jean Luc spent pondering and debating ethics, Jim Kirk would be beaming down, phasers set to "awesome" and kicking butt & taking names. Kirk would've not only resisted the Borg, he probably would have scored with the Queen for good measure.
*Tribbles are awesome and Trek built an entire episode around the, well, "hormonal frustration" of Spock. Who says science fiction isn't groundbreaking?
Live long and prosper...'cause I'm a blogger, not a docter!
