What's even more terrifying is that the 200+ ST books in my room are staying here when I move out - by my Dad's request!

Klingon Eye for the Human Guy

The scary thing is I'd actually watch that. Klingons art the best aliens on the show, especially after the horrible dumbing-down of the Borg.

EDIT: On a side note, the secret behind Klingon foreheads revealed: http://www.startrek.com/startrek/view/news/article/5111.html

....um, guys. C'mon. Today of all days?

This is in fact a true statement from william shatner himself. It was an interview done, and i witnessed it, and also witnessed his statement about doing the show Enterprise.

He did say he hasnt given the idea to the owners of the show, but is hopeful they would consider his story. Im betting his story was considered and thrown away, hence the mention in the interview.

See they need feedback, so they let this tidbit go out in the media, or Shatner in this case did, so they can get speculation brewing and either give shatner what he wants, or can the idea altogether based on polls.

So, keep saying it would suck, and most assuredly the writers will make sure he stays written out, but if its popular expect it to be seen in next seasons episodes or the season after as most is pre-written several weeks, even seasons in advance.

So is it real? yes, he did make the statement.
Will it happen? Shatner sure wants it to, but he has said they havent bought the idea yet, and also went further to say they arent even considering it as he is asking for consideration.

Is this post an April Fools Joke, either from the poster or the originating site? No, this is in fact a statement from William Shatner witnessed by me, and was shown on the Television show Spacecast.com about 2 or 3 days ago.

It should have been canceled right after TNG...Voyager sucks uber-extra-big time!
DS9 has some nice battles, but Sisko is nothing more more than a Picard&Kirk wanna-be!

I agree on the VOY part but DS9 was the best since TOS in every friggin way possible.

- DS9; B5 style epic story but in a more... ST way.
- Characters:

-- Sisko; Sure as friggin' hell not a Picard wannabe. Did Picard ever puch Q in the face as easily as Picard did? Would Picard even consider poisoning the atmosphere of a planet to bring a criminal to justice and to get personal revenge? I can continue to rant on about this but meh... Ow, and he ain't no Kirk wannabe either... Else Dax would be in his bed more often then behind her science console
-- Garak: Most certainly the most intruiging character ever to be in ST.
-- Odo & Quark: Heh, well, what can I say Those two were funny and yet served a MUCH bigger purpose to the story then comedy relief. Odo especially.
-- Kira: IMO one of the lesser characters but her background tends to get the ass-kicking ***** side of her on screen
-- Dax: Special character on her own. The way she portrait the Trill was excellent. I mean Jadzia. Ezri was... Less.
-- O'Brian: Well, ya can't go wrong with him
-- Bashir: Intruiging as well. His genetically altered body became quite an issue. Also, his adventures with Section 31 were cool
-- Worf: Heh, he was better then in TNG. Here he was an actual Klingon. Not some wussy human/klingon hybrid like in Picards prescence.
-- Martok: Heh, he was interesting. Showed a different side of the Klingons.

- Politics: Quite intruiging to see the political struggle before the war erupted. Klingons wanting blood, Romulans waiting for a chance to backstab someone, Cardassians quietly dealing with the Dominion, the Dominion probing the Federation and infiltrating the Klingon Empire. Hell, even the Breen were slightly involved in the political intruiges .

- Battles: Some nice battles you say? Lemme name some: Dominion take DS9, Recapture of DS9, last battle against the Dominion where the Cardies turn on their allies. Sisko building a Defiant in the mirror-verse and beating the **** out of Worf's battleship with it . Sisko going after the Maquis ships. The little skirmish in the Gamma quadrant where one of the bugs ram a galaxy class starship. The battle Vs the Breen...

Those are just a few points as to why I like DS9 .

Ezri was crap.

Odo and Quark were just sheer genius, and I love O'Brians ducttape&hammer engineering style.

Actually Sisko was nothing more than a Sheridan wanna-be *fans flames*

I didn't mind the later seasons of DS9 but the horrible Deus Ex Machina ending of the series was awful.

I so want Dutch TV to show B5!

I have never actually saw more of the series then a few loose eps. What I saw, I liked, but they stopped broadcasting it. That, and when they did broadcast it, I was too young and it was broadcast too late.

Nah, Sheridan was a moron. Flying in his spacesuit through a massive battle with a nuke in his hands.

yeah, well, they mostly broadcasted on inhuman times, and they have a habit of starting with a series without announcing it.

[J3Vr6]

lol, and I thought it was an april fools joke!  Now if it really DID happen, I'd lose interest in the show.

I mean, how can they show it?  I guess when Kirk was stuck in that nebula in that movie with the Next Generation where he was imagining a happy life or whatever... just like he was able to jump out with Picard into whatever time, maybe there was a brief moment he was thrown to the birth of the federation?

I don't know why everyone likes DS9 so much, I never could get into it.  Then again, I couldn't really get into any of the ST shows until Enterprise.

Hey guys, what does TOS stand for?

When exactly did he do that? Unless you meant Spaceship.

Still, none of them Trek's came close to B5. Only TOS was occasionaly better than that. Though it too had "Spock's Brain" (then again, B5 had "Gray 17 is missing")

Well, one should steer clear of the telemovies anyway. Aside from In the Beginning of course. That was cool.

[Bobboau]

TOS == The Old Show

[karajorma]

When applied to the later movies I always thought it stood for Ten Old Septuagenarians
