I'll pay forty bucks for TAS. If they charge eighty then I'll still only pay forty but I'll have to run out the door before security catches me.
AJK: I'll give you $40.
Clerk: The price is $80.
AJK places $40 on the counter and continues to browse with the TAS set in his hands. He is approached by Sulu.
Sulu: The word, Admiral?
AJK: The word is $80. I am, therefore, going anyway.
AJK and Sulu rush for the exit yelling, "The Kobyashi Maru has set sail for the Promised Land."
The animated series, man...it's been years since I've seen that. Trek was always with Wars as the two franchises of my youth. I could never tell which series I liked more, though thanks to the EU, it's probably Wars.
Still, ever since Enterprise, I haven't been big on Trek. I just didn't like the characters or the direction it was going in, It felt too much like a best of show and I stopped watching it only a few episodes in, and don't count it in my canon.
I agree with Gundark. It needs a rest. I highly enjoyed Nemesis, and think it gets a bad rap, but Enterprise needs to be buried and forgotten, with the show carried on later by more skilled hands like Moore or Strazinsky. Heck, a line of official novels might be nice, depending on how good they are.
Trek needs to find it's roots again. Moore has done wonders reimagining BSG, another show I loved, though not as much as Trek.
