I liked the original series, and ST:NG has my favourite captain. But I sort of stopped bothering with watching the telly altogether once broadband reached my shores. These days, I just revisit my favourite fan-fiction author to get a ST fix whenever needed. >_>;
I have a friend who advocates early Enterprise and how hawt and truly Vulcan T'Pol is. Eh, maybe if I see it in the bargain bin. XD But sure, I'll happily have a debate over who behaves more like a Klingon, B'Elanna or Worf, right down to their contrasting family backgrounds and biological make-up.
Let's say I'm a fan of the universe and not quite of the shows' writers that seem too afraid of the suits to really break the rules.
