- Well, having seen Deep Space Nine, I've got a few things to say:
-
- As everyone is probably going to tell you, it sure was better than
- Encounter at Farpoint.
-
- I believe that TOS fans will be pleased, and will most likely enjoy
- DS9. The TOS ingredients are there, and a quirkyness a la Northern
- Exposure can be seen in some of the characters. And the most important
- ingredient is there: CONFLICT!
-
- I've been growing disinterested in TNG for the past couple of years,
- with this HAPPY HAPPY JOY JOY attitude that is rampant on the show.
- DS9 is definitely a step in the right direction for me, and I for
- one am going to stay with it...
-
- Having seen some of the storylines that are coming up, though, makes
- me worried. Let me just say that I hope that DS9 will try to
- establish itself as a series, and forget any damn crossovers with
- TNG.
-
- Only one other show could top this: BABYLON 5!!!
