15. Meh, I'd take an episode of Landman over Starfleet Academy in a heartbeat.

Expectations shouldn't have to be lowered to enjoy a show, IMHO. Not when there's too much good non-Star Trek content to waste my time with what toxic waste Paramount tries to pass off as Star Trek these days. They should end the current shit shows before the legacy is further tarnished and let the franchise rest in peace.

Star Trek

1966 - 2005

We Took the Quality for Granted

For the record, I do not hate Star Trek. I hate what it's become and, if anything, mourn for the franchise I've loved since childhood.

And as to my keeping the faith, faith is earned, and the ass-clowns in charge have given me zero reason to keep it.

But, you enjoy it and I will ignore it and we can both be happy. There will be no improving on that.
