TNG was better. IMO if you took the 60s series and did it today it would seem too obvious and ham-handed. (Half the aliens are black on the left side and half are black on the right side? Didn't Dr. Suess already cover this fable?)
|
TNG had better production and scripts but it lost the edge of the original. I thought Janeway and company did better exploring exploration. Then again maybe it was just 7s speedsuit...
|
Here we freakin' go again with the Star Trek obsession! Everything comes back to Kirk V. Picard with you people, doesn't it?
;) |
Yeah, but we're great in the sack.
|
What is the longest thread on the Cellar without a ST reference?
|
certainley not this one....
TNG was very good in the way it explored some fundamental topics.... like what is human? The plotting in DS9 was excellent, up there with babylon5. Voyager? more fiction than science...in a tight spot... re-align the sensor array and move on..... as for Enterprise..... |
These British shows:
All Creatures Great And Small Red Dwarf Lexx (highly sexual sci-fi show) Blackadder (all of the time periods) Yes Minister (and then Yes Prime Minister) American Shows: (but catch them on syndication) Seinfeld Mash Fraser |

If only just for hidden adult humor they managed to weave into every episode.

I love watching old Nick shows now, and catching all the things I couldnt get cause I was too young.
|
That episode with the weinies....maturity level dropped upon seeing it.

I was shocked to find out that two of my favorite cable shows, Lucky Louie and Huff, have been canceled! They were too young to die...I sure hope Oliver Platt does another TV show soon.

This is pretty cool. The original notes on the idea for Babylon 5. |
Anyone ever see a show called Strange Luck?
I used tolove that show. I was gutted when they cancelled it. Was it after one series, or two? I think one. I still remember the lead character, even though it must be a decade and a half since I saw it: Chance Harper. |

My so called life
Northern exposure and I'm definitely gonna look for Invader zim dvds |
Deadwood.
Babylon 5. Coupling (original BBC version) My Favorite Martian I second Hogan's Heroes. It would have been ripe for an after-war reunion show. On a related note, under movie sequels I would have liked to have seen - Doctor Detroit II.:biggrinpi |
Invader Zim - I still love my house-shaped DVD set.
Addams Family - I picked up the 2-pack at Target. I just need to find the 3rd season, and I'll be good to go. The Critic - Andy Dick fears Jon Lovitz The Honeymooners - I ruined this one for The Wife when we were watching it and I pointed out the fact that Alice's nipples were hard. Puttin' On The Hitz - If you saw it, you'd know why. |
ST:TNG, but only season three and after. Seasons one and two were merely warmups for the awesome show it would become. Best of all Treks, hands down.
|
I adored STG:TNG. And you are right about the first couple of series. Do you remember Troi in the first episode? Oh God she was painful.
I feel....Anger. I feel...Pain. .... her minidress positively quivered with emotion. |
I'm sticking with my list as originally posted, and adding Oz and Rome from HBO.
|
I loved Rome.
|
I was a bit disappointed with Rome. I dunno. I think I'd worked myself up into thinking it wuold be like another I Claudius.
|
Oz! That was a great show.

Sapphire and Steel.
I wish I could go back in time and watch these again with my 8 year old eyes. I tried watching them again with my 37 year old eyes but it was just toooooo paaaaiiinnnnffffuuulllyyyyy sllloooooww. I loved this programme, my whole family watched it. We'd rush round and get ready for Sapphire and Steel (sandwiches, cups of tea, bag of sweets). It was a weekly event. We'd talk about it in the intervening week. I still remember the very last episode, and in fact the setting for it (a strange little waiting room, or cafe that wasn't really anywhere at all....out of time and space, just on its own) has settled so deep into my psyche that it's my benchmark for a certain kind of spookiness. And here's a clip from the very first episode. The start of it with the opening credits. Gosh, how terribly modern. I still get a slight shiver from these credits. This programme, this episode frightened the shit out of me. Fed my nightmares for about a decade after. I think David McCallum (Steel) might have been my first full on crush lol. |
LOST IN SPAAAAAAACE

Oh! Soap! That was another show we watched as a family. It was must see tv.

I miss Silk Stalkings (with the original cast -- Rob Estes and Mitzi Kapture), and Las Vegas. I'm actually pretty annoyed that they left so many stories hanging without giving us answers after the writers' strike. |
Since a couple of people have mentioned Six Feet Under, I came across the last 10 minutes of the series. If you were hooked like I was, you know how great it was. I think it's a great series ending, even if you were not emotionally invested in the show. Why do I sometimes love television?
|
'Six Feet Under' had a far better ending than 'The Sopranos'.
|
Don't tell me. I missed the last season and still have hopes of seeing it, though I've heard the ending sucked.
