Favorite series: TNG err because I grew up with it and how beautiful that counselor Deanna Troi was...she could read my mind and heart anytime okay that's probably the tenth reason.

Favorite character: Capt Picard. Oh yeah a very admirable character, keyword is integrity.

Favorite movie: The first star trek movie.

The original movies imo are waaaay better than newer ones. The newest imo is pretty bad, as shallow as most recent Hollywood flicks. I remember getting out of the theater thinking what's all the hype for? Felt pretty numb and unmoved at all. Can't really make connection with the characters or relate to them, they feel distant and shallow and weak in character to the point of being merely comical, I mean comical in the sense of being weak in character.

The original movies have so much flavor and meanings and chemistry. They feel more humane and humanistic. Great watch.

Was never really set on the films much.
As for the tv stuff (leaving out the originals) I like characters from all the star trek series.

But if it was a choice between captains... Kirk vs Picard hmmm difficult as there's not much to make a comparison because they play the character so differently. While kirk definitely seems to get laid more, picard has a more subtle sense of humour.



But, marina sirtis, jeri ryan, terry farrell (did you know she was in hellraiser 3?)
...think I'll go have a cold shower

I think my favourite series was DS9, but that could be because it's the only I watched all the way through.

As for the movie, I really can't decide.

I've recently watched both DS9 and TNG all the way through and I have to say I like DS9 the most. The long story arcs of DS9 were just so much more interesting to me than the bad guy/problem of the week in TNG. I never really watched much of any of the other series.

I'm not sure what my favorite movie would be... either Star Trek II or IV.

I remember an actress, she was sth like 40 years old, huge tits, she wasn't pretty that much, she was a medical officer or she had paranormal abilities like reading in someone's mind. It wasn't the movie but the series. She always had long straight hair.

The one with empathic ability was counselor Deanna Troi played by Marina Sirtis. Lovely lady. Very sexy too in the series sometimes.

Ahh then must be the doctor, Dr Beverly Crusher the only other female she didn't have empathic ability but who knows now since he had had an uneasy weird romantic sluggishness with Capt Picard which would probably make her both neurotic and empathic after all these years LOL.

But fatter face for a sec thought it was flatter face . . . .you're confusing me. LOL.
I'm sure it was Deanna Troi


Either way the way you described it must have raised these gentlemen eyebrows. Star Trek is not porn. :-P

thanks for trying but still she doesn't match. I remember that they had different, I guess, later types of uniforms. The one you have shown so far are kinda older than what I think about. She was wearing sth like a black swimsuit with a red stripe near collar(?) and it was star trek for sure coz i was looking for her at imdb years ago and i found her but deleted the link probably.

Series: TNG

TOS is a close second, I grew up watching it, every once in a while I'll still see a rerun of this or that episode and the nostalgia factor will always outweigh how dated it is and any other shortcomings.

I also quite liked DS9 when it first came on but lost track of it at some point. To me it seemed to get a little too much like a soap opera in some ways, altho I remained fond of some of the characters (Kira and Odo in particular). And for some reason I found Avery Brooks more and more off-putting as Sisko and that may have been my primary reason for not sticking with it.

Voyager - I tried, but... well, I can't watch Kate Mulgrew in anything, so that was that. Enterprise - was that the Scott Bakula one? - I didn't bother. Not a fan of his either and that didn't help. And I think by that time I felt they were throwing new stuff out there just to keep the "brand" alive no matter how far they overextended themselves.

TNG though - that was really something and it still hasn't gotten old no matter how many reruns I see. Rebooted my interest completely, gave us some great new characters who had a chance to evolve over the course of the series leading to some wonderful performances... and as someone else already indicated: Jean-Luc freakin' Picard FTW.

Movie: Star Trek (2009)

This is not to say I don't have a nostalgic fondness for some of the older movies, with the casts of both TOS and TNG. But after years of being a devoted Trekkie, the first ST movie actually put me to sleep. And I mean I literally fell asleep in the theater trying to sit through a movie I'd been looking forward to since what felt like forever. Quite a disappointment. I still remember Wrath of Khan as being the one in that series that I liked best, but as a whole the movies that come out of TOS never did much to re-energize my interest. The cast-of-TNG films were more interesting and more well made IMO, but a lot of that has to do with my slight preference for the cast and characters of the series.

But the 2009 film was far and away the most fun I've ever had watching a ST movie, an amazing job at rebooting the "old" ST universe, unbelievably brilliant casting IMO, for me there is nothing to complain about with this one. Re-energized my interest much like TNG did when it first hit its stride.
