space, the final frontier (and everyone can hear ME scream)


i admit it, i'm a star trek junkie. i watched them all. some i loved, some, not so much. it took me quite a while to like deep space, but i grew to LOVE it and it became my favorite.

my favorite scene from any of the series or movies is; the (original) crew was up to their ususal shenanigans and saving-the-universe exploits and somehow or other the enterprise was destroyed (whooops!). at the end of the movie, they were being shuttled to a new ship and had NO idea what she would be or look like. they're tooling around in space and all of a sudden, the BRAND NEW SPANKING ENTERPRISE is waiting for them around a space bend. scotty got wood i think. anyway, i tear up every time i see that scene from the movie. i of course am not doing it justice. speaking of which, deep space had a great many story lines dealing with that theme. then again so did the original. i remember frank gorshen as the half black half white man.

Star Trek is 'most missed' series

Sci-fi series Star Trek is the show most people want to see returned to their TV screens, a survey has found.
Originally broadcast in the US in 1966, it topped a poll of more than 1,000 viewers commissioned by UK interactive TV firm Home Media Networks.
Fantasy action series Buffy the Vampire Slayer was second, followed by long-running sitcom Friends.
Star Trek's latest spin-off TV series, Enterprise, was axed in February following poor ratings.
