<div style='font: 12pt Arial, Modern; text-align: left; '>Or so they say. Once Voyager ends, it's gonna be the first time since the 1980's that there's no currently-running Star Trek (whereas before, we always had two).</div>

<div style='font: 9pt "times new roman", Modern; text-align: left; '>A big 'n tasty is the exact same thing as a quarter pounder, except the big 'n tasty doesn't have mustard, and does have mayo, tomato and lettace. It's utter foolishness! It's like having two of the same sandwhich on a menu!</div>

<div style='font: 12pt Arial, Modern; text-align: left; '>Yup. For a while both TNG/DS9 were in new episodes, then DS9/Voyager were both in new episodes. Now with Voyager ending, there's no secondary show to take over in time.</div>

<div style='font: 12pt Arial, Modern; text-align: left; '>Yup, it's their version of the Whopper. It's also been closely copied by "The Arch Deluxe," and also by "The Big Xtra" which was nearly a clone of it.</div>

<div style='font: 14pt Modern; text-align: left; '>The show taking place in the first year after Starfleet's creation, (circa mid-22nd century, roughly a century before the original series) meaning we'll see really slow ships with no replicators / holodecks, slow as heck transporters, and first contacts with races that were staples in the other shows. (which would be real cool in my book :) ) Another rumor has it taking place in Starfleet Academy, a sort of "Starfleet Academy 90210" if you will. I really hope they don't go that route, but given today's television, they probably will. We'll just have to wait and see.

<b>Spoiler Message:<b>
<span style="background: black; color: black;">Paramount's also not giving out any details of Voyager's final episode. The actors/actresses don't even know anything. Man, I just want to know if they're finally going to make it back to Earth or not. :) The suspense is building, even though the final episode's a few months away.</span></div>

<div style='font: 11pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light", Modern; text-align: left; '>Why don't they just stick with the damn sandwich and get a bunch of sales off of it, instead of taking it off the menu. Hell, I was disappointed that BK removed the Big King.</div>
