I'm rooting for Bakula as I've liked the work he's done in the past. However, in reading the press releases, it sounded to me like the Trek franchise (owned by Paramount -- not the Roddenberrys) was trying to borrow from the Babylon-5 universe again. The description of the captian Bakula is to play sounded *very* much like the descripton for Captain Matthew Gideon of "Crusade" -- someone loyal to his crew, but not afraid to "take risks" and "gamble" when he thinks he's right.

Gideon *wasn't* your typical sci-fi captian -- he had a definate shady side that worked in a place like the B-5 universe, but I'm not so sure "works" in Trek. . .
