The next generation was great.... I became a fan on accident because they used to play it on week nights late on fox after the Simpsons and I'd be in bed about to pass out watching it every night 
Star Trek NEXT GEN = GOAT TV SHOW
- Thread starter Kuwka_Atcha_Ratcha
- Start date
The only decent one now is Falling Skies.Reading this thread just makes methat we don't really have any good scifi shows anymore ...TNG...DS9..SG1 (and its iterations) were all fukkin great
What do we have now? Some decent action series but nothing to compare to the scifi series in this thread
Watch Fringe if you haven't seen it and Revolution get pretty good from the second half of season 1 onward.Reading this thread just makes me

I liked the Ori. Hated the Replicators. Just a boring, repetitive enemy.It was funny, when Atlantis launched I was
no more replicators in the Pegasus Galaxy but alas, no... the writers just couldn't think of anything new.

TNG was the first Star Trek I watched(got into them last year) but DS9 is without a doubt the best. Sisko, Odo
, Quark 
, Garak, and Dukat who was one of the best villains to ever grace a series. They even had sympathizing with him at some points only for him to go HAM during the Dominion War. Plus I always had a thing for Kira

I never watched x-files seriously back in the day, it may be on my list after Twighlightzone and Outer limits. But yah DS9 and Babylon 5 are slightly similar so it may be a good idea to take a break. So many shows, so little time, after I finish Babylon 5 I need to cut myself off of tv (with the exception of Game of Thrones ofcourse) I can't be wasting time like this when I should be investing it in my goals.Have Not checked Bab 5 or Farscape yet - May have to track it down on netflix or some of the unsupported plex channels.
i heard it was decent as well.
But I may switch up with the next series
Like watch the x-files again then do a space opera.

Oh wow, I was just about to make a Star Trek thread and saw this shyt here.
I've watched every TNG episode, and I'm on DS9. They are both very different types of shows, and I'm not even sure that you could even make a fair comparison between them.
I LOVED TNG. There were a lot of duds, but there were also a lot of fantastic episodes. I loved that episode where Picard was kidnapped from the enterprise and sent into some prison with three other aliens (the mystery & build up on that was crazy). I liked 'The Most Toys'. I liked 'Hotel Royale'. The episodes were so far out and crazy, it really made me respect the writers of the show.
I've been watching DS9 for a fair bit, and while I like it I don't think it's the same calibre as TNG. Since the series is set in a fixed location, the writers are kinda restricted in what they can do. Having The Defiant, kinda removed some of the ennui because it allowed the characters to move about & the action scenes added some much needed excitement to the series. However, while DS9 isn't quite as exciting as TNG the characters are a bit more developed. My favorite characters in DS9 are Quark, Garak, Gul Dukat & to a lesser extent Odo. Odo & Quark are always cracking on each other, shyt is all round comedy. Same thing with Garak and Odo. Gul Dukat is hilarious as well.
But I personally think that the Siskos are the model black family on television. I like how Jake Sisko's an aspiring writer and haas been modelled after Hemingway. I can relate to him because he's tall, skinny, awkward, somewhat lazy but smart. I like seeing black characters on TV who have a bit of depth to them, not just the same old tired tropes.

The TNG episode: 'Who Watches The Watchers' is one of favorites ever. If you're religious, don't watch this one lol. It really destroys religion.

lol was that the one where they think picard is a god? and basically shyt on religion
they had an episode few after that basically saying being a fakkit is okay, where a race of ppl are only one gender, and if they like gratitate to being a boy or a girl and liking someone of the same sex they are casted out lol, fkn agenda at its best

^ nah, i don't think there's any real agenda with star trek. they shyt on religion heavy on who watches the watchers, but if you watch DS9 you'll see that they push the arcane aspects of it back to the forefront (the people of Bajor consider Sisko to be a religious deity aka 'The Emissiary')
