New Star Trek series
 

I knew it would return.

Excellent news, lets hope it's in the old tradition (clean, no sex or violence):yep:

:hmmm: Colour me skeptical for now. After what Abrams did to the Trek canon I have my concerns about what timeline this will be set in. Will be happy to be surprised though.

I'd put it in the primary timeline, after the events of the destruciton of Romulus, which is set in a federation weakened by the Dominion war, Romulan empire on the verge of collapse and the Klingon empire in internal turmoil.
Which makes every power in the alpha quadrant to weak to start wars and makes more room for exploration and intrigue.

Fingers crossed Patrick Stewart will return.

I'm with you. I always found him to be the most dignified and eloquent Enterprise Captain. But reality is, it's been 20 years, and TNG actors aren't getting any younger. We clearly saw that in the last episode of the Enterprise series. While Marina Sirtis still looked reasonably good, Jonathan Frakes looked like he needed a strict diet. Star Trek heroes needn't look like they neglect their health.
TNG left quite an impression on me. Every episode, every story, tried to convey a message, get a point across, for the betterment of the viewers. I grew to like Enterprise a lot, but TNG remains the best in my book.

My response to this news :woot::yeah: :woot:

My next response due to where I live :wah::wah::wah:

Denmark and Sweden are so ANTI-sci fi. especially when it comes to Star Trek.

One of the Danish public service channel was so kind to show the first 12 episode of season 1 of ST TNG and that was it. We were told there weren't any more episode.

Can only hope one of the German channel I have, will air this new series.

The US audience is not going to be in any better a position regarding the series. The show will premiere on the CBS broadcast stations (free TV), but thereafter will only be available on the CBS online streaming service. So, if you're not connected to the Net, you're SOL ...

I won't be the same without Spock.

Live long and prosper.

Welcome to this modern world where all entertainment and software is by subscription.

VINA we'll really miss U!
 

Life is for the living! Spock had his resurrection, Now: what about the Orion Slave Girls (alas Susan Oliver is also no longer with us!) http://i.kinja-img.com/gawker-media/...2qptppfjpg.jpg
Her offscreen accomplishments were not inconsiderable: Overcoming an almost crippling fear of flying (caused in 1959 when the Boeing 707 she was aboard plunged 30,000 feet towards the Atlantic before leveling out just in time), Ms. Oliver quickly became obsessed with flying single-engine planes in 1964. Earning far more than the standard amateur flight certifications, she eventually set out to become the first woman to fly a single-engine plane from New York to Moscow in 1967. The dangerous journey became even more so due to numerous delays with the plane and with Soviet officials, leading her to embark in early-winter conditions. Despite successfully making the most dangerous legs of the journey (from Canada, through Greenland and Iceland, and on to Scotland), she was stopped in Copenhagen when the Soviets decided not to allow her to fly the final leg to Moscow. The U.S. press dubbed her journey "The Flight That Failed," trivializing what should have been recognized as a major achievement (during which Ms. Oliver set five world records). Her love of flying continued despite this lack of acknowledgement, and in 1968 Bill Lear invited her to become the first woman ever flight trained for his new Lear Jet (an offer she gladly accepted).

As a side note re: Spock: The TV series "The Bib Bang Theory" is going to address the passing of Leonard Nimoy tonight. Nimoy had made what could technically be termed his last appearance as Spock on the show some time back when he provided his voice for a Spock doll that figured prominently in a dream sequence involving the 'Sheldon' character on the show...

We ran out of ideas years ago what shall we do?

How about re-vamping Star Trek yet again?

Sounds good lets do that..We can always cancel the show if the viewers still show signs of oh no not more Star Trek and give it another five years.


:shifty:

Fixed :O:
