Oooh, Star Trek! I LOVE Star Trek, dear EE (again, peace to you!). I did some volunteer work at the SF Annual Star Trek convention back in October. It was GREAT! Levar Burton is HILARIOUS!! No, really... and a VERY nice man. He told us that he and PBS are going to be starting a "Reading Rainbow" for adults... and his OFFICE is here in my town! So, of course, I had to go up and talk with him. He was VERY gracious!
I had heard that Michael Dorn was a bit of a "pill"... and he did not disappoint. Very aloof and seemed kind of diva-ish and full of himself. I took a photo with George Takei, though... and dear tec (peace, chile'!) and I exchanged photos this past xmas season!
I LOVED the last movie: the actors were SO true to character... and I KNEW Uhura and Spock had a "thing" (they HAD to - she was too good for Kirk, that man-ho - LOLOLOL!). So I was overjoyed about their "affair"... and am looking SO forward to the next release!
So, which is your favorite Star Trek series? Mine are the original, then "Next Generation" and "Voyager" tie. But I also loved "Deep Space Nine," so... heck, I loved them ALL! I hope they start a new series (after the movie) so that the current generation can join us (without having to go retro).
Which is/are your favorite character(s)? Mine are Spock and Uhura, of course, then Deanna Troy (and Worf was, but I don't know if I can get past Dorn, now), then Capts. Janeway and Sisko, and finally Six of Nine. I loved Data, Chakotay, Tuvoc, and the hologram doctor, too! Heck, I don't think there was a character I didn't like (although I didn't particularly care for the Ferengi or Romulons).
Peace... and c'mon, man, share! I have been itchin' to talk "Trekkie" (although, I'm not an expert (high intermediate/lower advanced, depending on the series).
Your servant and a slave of Christ,

thats cool, ive never made it to a convention...
I have heard the same about Dorn, but I really really liked DS9 when he got involved... i think he did a great job with worf!
Takai's facebook page is hysterical and a great read. check it out if you get a chance, parts of it will make you lol for sure
I was always partial to TNG, but abolutly feel in love with DS9 as it progressed. A few DS9's are my aboslute favorite of ANY star trek series..
Hellpuppy: yea they made it clear in the last one that they were abandoning the timeline and rebooting. Some were deeply offended but it was so good i embraced it
