What are your controversial Star Trek opinions?

“STD” does not work because I’ve never heard anyone ever call Voyager “STV”. It also immediately brings my hackles up because it’s used by THAT section of the fanbase as a juvenile insult.
Sorry, I like the show, but I am going down with that s ship. The fifth movie (and my favorite) "Star Trek: Save the Whales;" Harry Kim and Neelix (who I both like) are "the Dweeb" and "the Hedgehog" respectively; and the new prequel series (which I enjoy) is "STD."
 
IN SOME WAYS, the "Before and After" timeline was better than the one we got.
* Overall, Chakotay was probably a more stable captain than Janeway was. Let me be clear, I like Janeway very much, but when she fixed her mind on something, everything in her path got steamrolled.
* Tuvok undoubtedly balanced Chakotay well as first officer.
* People actually got promoted. And Harry scored.
* The Doctor had a name and a better hairstyle.
 
My most controversial Trek opinion?

"Kirk isn't a particularly good captain or an interesting character, and the veneration of him in the Trek universe by people even a hundred years later is both strange and annoying."
 
Surely not a controversial opinion (unless I am well out of modern fandom line of thinking). I have always thought this was one of the most highly regarded TNG episodes?

I certainly love it, one of the best, and still so incredibly relevant.
When i signed up on this forum a few days ago, i saw people in 2 different threads saying it was written too obvious, so i figured most people thought so, my bad.
 
Never watched it. TAS will do, I expect.

And I don't disco. Only dance I can do is the Macarena. And I didn't master it until long after the initial craze passed.
