Right, a survey here about Shaw and Seven of Nine and the next episode. Do you think Shaw will be captain of the Titan in the next episode? Do you think Seven of Nine will be in a cell, as she's deserving off? Do you think Picard will give Laris a call? Do you think the enemy will go, "why the f£ck did we send Vadic to finish them off?" Snap out of it people... it's ridiculous.

Then why are you wasting your time watching Star Trek (in any form)?

Look, I love the Star trek franchise (and TOS first and foremost); but it's NEVER been written in a consistent/bullet proof fashion WRT story. A story that really holds up to 'close scrutiny' in the Star trek franchise from 1964 (starting with the pilot The Cage) through TAS - the feature films (TOS & TNG) and ESPECIALLY the Berman & Braga era (TNG,DS9,VOY, ENT) to today is an EXTREMELY RARE occurrence and is more a confluence of luck.

After 59 years, to suddenly expect a paradigm shift...:wtf:

So yeah, go watch something else that meets your criteria that you (I guess) will actually enjoy.

I'm wasting my time because I love old Trek too. But I can't wear blinkers and accept the rubbish that they're serving us up. That's where we differ.

Yes.
Do you think Seven of Nine will be in a cell, as she's deserving off?
Yes, and then Picard will release her, ala the end of "The Pegasus."
Do you think Picard will give Laris a call?
Yes. His next wine order is due.
Do you think the enemy will go, "why the f£ck did we send Vadic to finish them off?"
Probably. The enemy clearly doesn't trust Vadic so that she failed is more an annoyance than anything else. Typical villain behavior.

Where we are different is that somehow you refuse to see that there was plenty of 'rubbish' in past Star Trek; and somehow expect a formula that's worked for 59 years to suddenly change to suit your current story sensibilities.

But yeah I also agree that we differ in a major way in that, if I don't enjoy something, I move from it on to something that I do enjoy.

That seems to be something you're currently incapable of.

Guarantee you none of it will happen.

Honestly, as much as I agree with you about some of this stuff, I think the best thing for you would be to take a breather and refrain from posting until Thursday, and we'll see if your predictions come true.
 
There have been posters here in the past that like to make threads all about themselves, but this guy takes the cake. Stop giving him the attention that he's so obviously and desperately craving.

Again, attacking the poster rather than the post. I haven't posted that much of late.

Ah yeah, done now. Cheers kid

I LOVE THIS!!!!

I've never actually seen 'beating a dead horse' shown literally in a post before. How did you do that?

(I would certainly use it in several instances.)
@137th Gebirg is a master of the animated emojis. If you have a request I highly recommend asking if they have one in their archives. Haven't disappointed me yet :)
Enterprise D-seus.
OOOHHHH...call back to Balance of Terror? ;)
