While I agree that Berman is grinding the franchise into the ground, I also think it needs a break. The original series ran for 3 years followed a few years later by the animated show, and The Motion Picture 10 years after the original series. Since then, we've had 26 years of nearly uninterrupted Star Trek. Time to give it a rest.


Agreed. I love Star Trek (probably more than Star Wars), but it needs some time off. Hopefully enough time off that Berman will find his way over the side of a cliff before Star Trek's return.

I'm going through the second season of TOS now and plan to pick up season 3 when I'm done. After that, I'm going to swallow hard and grab the 7-season set of TNG. I loved TNG back when it was on the air, and can't wait to see it all again. Actually, watching TOS has shown me that there were a lot of episodes I'd never seen, and with 7 seasons under its belt, I'm sure I'll be watching a lot of TNG episodes for the first time.
If I ever manage to finish it, I'll check out DS9, which I also really enjoyed during its first few seasons. I slacked off and stopped watching though.

Speaking of the animated series, is there any talk of it hitting DVD anytime soon? The LD box set sells on ebay for around $100. I'm about ready to cave.
