"I can't control Ira Behr ..."

[Kevman7987]

Working with Ron Moore on Outlander.

Now I'm wondering what Generations would have been like if it were written by Moore & Behr as opposed to Moore & Braga...

I don't know about Behr, but if Moore's output was kept the same, he'd be overworked and the quality would suffer. Both Moore and Braga said that being spread out too thin between All Good Things and Generations as one of the main reason why the movie wasn't that good (an honest assessment from Braga, I think).

Plus, the studio kept insisting that Moore & Braga keep a laundry list of things that had to happen, like destroying the E-D.

Yes, if Behr had been a serious problem, Berman would have fired him.

Consider the source of this gossip: someone paraphrasing something they recall (second hand?) from years ago.
Berman could have said anything. He could have meant anything by it. Who knows? Not us, that's for sure.

This is the only relevant comment, here.

The story would be dark and all the characters would be manic depressives who never do anything right and lose all the time because we need our "assumptions challenged" or whatever.

Berman was management, interested in the corporate image and massaging networks, ratings and press. Michael Piller, ISB, were about the story and the characters. They were always going to be at loggerheads.

I don't get the sense that Berman and Piller clashed much (at least until maybe Insurrection), they seemed to have pretty similar visions of what Trek was and should be.
