Whatever happened to Starship Exeter?

[doubleohfive]

1) I read The Making of Deep Space Nine too, and I think you're missing the point of the "cheap chicken" anecdote. You are taking a gag from Berman's working relationship with Piller as writers and trying to use it as evidence to discredit the guy. That's not academically fair, it is intellectually dishonest and frankly, it reeks of lazy thinking on your part. Is this the best you can do to defend your point? Is this the most salient argument you have to support your claim?

2) You are still providing me with your opinions about Enterprise. I am not questioning your opinions, despite disagreeing with them. I am however challenging your assertions --which you are presuming and perpetuating as fact, solely because you didn't like the product he was producing-- and asking you for hard, legit sources to back up your so-far-spurious claims.

If you can't back up your shit though, man up and just admit it - you didn't like the show. That's no reason to cast aspersions on the people who worked hard to produce that show, whether you liked it or not, never mind the fact that we are sitting here, six years after the show wrapped arguing about its merit.

If you're going to go down the tired, one-note road of Berman bashing, at least have the stones to admit to it.

Was the show not dark in it's color schemes?

Did not Berman get the cheap chicken because it was cheap?

[doubleohfive]

I'm not disputing that the show's color palette was darker. I'm not disputing that the chicken was cheap.

I am taking issue with your asserting your opinions as facts, when you have no solid information to back them up as such.

^^^^ whatever....

I like the way the Tholian face can be seen along with the Tholian ships. I'm guessing the screen grab is in the middle of a fade? Thanks again for the sneak peek!

I said he probably made it devoid of color to save money because to me his stingy sure footed approach would lend itself to not taking any extravagant risks such as color as standing out could get your show cancelled sooner. Since he ran the show and his vision was what we were seeing it would make sense that he might take the cheap chicken approach. What makes you think that saving money is a bad thing anyway, and being stingy as well as greedy? Now I'm making a joke, but your point is extremely intangential. Is that a word? How about indifferential?

[T'Bonz]

Hey guys, this place is supposed to be for fan productions, not to complain about various series or those involved.

Thanks.

[doubleohfive]

You're absolutely right, T'Boo. I won't derail the thread any further.

My sincere apologies, everyone.

[xortex]

Did you ever try to apoligize to a dog? Now think about how much worse humans are than animals. I still don't feel bad. Though once when I sent a letter in to Enterprise telling them how a few of their eps should have went better I did get a call from what sounded like Braga but probably wasn't saying he agreed with me but if I only knew how fragile his ego was(Berman). Obviously Braga was carrying him on his back. It was a harmless letter saying how I could have improved the show had they heeded my pitches instead of running them over. That made me feel like the dog getting apologized to but enough of this, hey, did they ever finish that last Exeter film, and will they be making any more?

Wow.

Anyways, back to Starship Exeter...

[Psion]

Hey! Number6 stole my line!

And there are Tholians in this episode?! Someone has got to invent spoiler tags!

(See, Maurice, no good deed goes unpunished. And I'm here to see that it stays that way.)

But ... Tholians! I can't wait 'till this is finished!

[xortex]

B'Fusilik was a stinking Tholian!

Yes...dissolve. Sorry, the brain thought one thing and the fingers typed another.

[T'Bonz]

Is there a reason that you needed to continue on after I stepped in and told people to get back on track?

Don't do it again. I won't be lenient next time.

When you're always right, your always right. Now Shnell!! Get back, back to work! Not you T'Boo.

I'll be back in another ten years. The feurer expects progress.
