[QUOTE="Tom Cashel, post: 13291, member: 321"] I thought the last two episodes (this one included) were pretty lame. Even *gasp* boring. The Next Generation (as long as it's not season 1) is still my favorite. The coining of the term "directive" was total cheese, the theme song is total cheese, every time Archer tells T'Pol to come with him I expect him to add, "and bring your breasts with you." They are so obvious in their desire to not offend any Trekkies; a show that started out with promise has become what they said they were trying to avoid: "A bunch of medium shots of people talking, from the waist up." I'll keep watching, in the hope that they do something with the Temporal Cold War subplot, but will they surpass TNG? Will they surpass some of the Deep Space Nine episodes from the height of the war with the Dominion? Doubtful. And the logic behind the Prime Directive is a load of malarkey. Rather than making sense in any real way, it exists only to prop up it's own existence in shows which occur "later" in time. Which is the major problem with prequels anyhow. But don't get me started. ;) [/QUOTE]
