Then there are an incredible amount of liers out there, including the cast of the show and various other Star Trek shows on that mini-documentary on the subject I caught a few days ago...</div>

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>Can't say I'm really a fan of the series, I would like to watch some of it, but I have only ever seen one episode. Voyager was the first real Star Trek show that I watched, I used to relax to it after work, and I really liked it. Actually Deep Space 9 used to be on right before it and was on after I got home from work, but even though it had some cool characters (like Commander Sisqo, Garrak, and some others) I just could not get into the show for some reason. I like the original Star Trek too just based on the amount of cheese involved =P</div>

It aggravates me that a man that's been dead 10+ years is now inventing crappy shows, like "Gene Roddenberry's Earth: Final Conflict" or "Gene Roddenberry's Andromeda" (starring Kevin Sorbo).</div>

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>I've only seen the Star Trek the Next Generation ending, it was alright, but not nearly on the level of Voyager. Next Generations also became boring at a lot of parts, Voyager's didn't.</div>

<div style='font: 10pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light", "Century Gothic"; text-align: left; '>ST:DS9 and ST:TNG were the best series. ST:TOS really shows its age, Voyager should be renamed "Star Trek: A Three Hour Tour", and Enterprise is total garbage.</div>

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>A typical plot for a Deep Space 9 episode usually revolves around something pointless and boring like Sisqo going on a date, or finding some valuable baseball card from the 20th century. I mean, Voyager had the Hirogens who at one point converted the entire ship into a holographic world which had them acting out the part of the "Master race" in Nazi Germany, with their holographic Nazi Stormtroopers. It had a large amount of guest stars in many of the episodes including Candyman playing the Captain of The Hunters (Hirogen), Red from That 70's Show playing a ruthless war lord who is waging a genocidal war across his section of the galaxy, John Rhys Davies (Gimli from Lord of the Rings) playing the part of Leonardo Davinci, and The Rock (who played the part of a pit fighter, this kickstarted his acting career, and it was probably his best acting role =P). Easily Voyager was far superior to Deep Space 9 (which really didn't have anything going for it other than a couple of characters who continued on in the series from The Next Generation). The Next Generation had one of the best actors of all time, Patrick Stewart, but I always felt that aside from the Borg episodes that the series was just an outdated version of Voyager which wasn't all that exciting. The original, it's very dated, but it also had a low budget when it came out, it's fun to watch because of all the errors and un-politically correct things in the show (I.E. All female crew have mini-skirts), they manage to solve impossible problems with seemingly the pressing of 2 or 3 random buttons, the fact that the code to self destruct their ship is "1, 2, 3, 4" =P

Anyways, the point is that Deep Space 9 is one show on TV that I always avoided like the plague.</div>
