Please just let it die, and bury it for 10 years.
Star Trek TNG - was just too cute, and group huggy for me, and you saw a sink in every cabin, and Troy had a bathtub, but no toilet. There was wall to wall carpeting on the bridge, and outside of the borg (which they completely wrecked) there was no menacing enemies, except for the transgendered chick who nailed Riker. They could defeat any enemy with technobabble. What I'd like to see.
Riker - "Captain, if we do a inverse Tachyon beam while venting warp plasma through the feldercarb regulators, we might be able to disrupt thier secondary statis field and be able to make them decloak"
Picard - "Great idea Will. Mr Laforge, make it happen"
Laforge - "What in frick are you talking about. Hello advanced engineering degree in warp theory, and non of that stuff exists"
Picard - "D'oh"
Ship explodes end of series.
Star Trek DS9 - I liked it, it was gritty, and dark and all of the hero's are flawed. But the main villains were shapeshifters. I mean thats kind of the unbeatable deux ex machina.
Worf - "There dosen't seem to be any sign of shapeshifters in your cabin captain"
Sisko - "Yeah except that I don't remember having any couches like that. Or a Louis IV chair, or a 8 foot dildo."
Worf - "Open fire"
Star Trek Voyager was complete garbage, you could hear mastabatory sighs when they added 7 of 9 when the ratings were crap from all of the trek nerds out there. Too much technobable and they made the borg into egomaniacal villians with a high level of incompetance.
Borg Queen - "Resistance is futile, we will add your uniqness to us. Your race will service us"
Janeway - "Reverse the polarizes and send a negative Ion pulse through the main deflector array"
Borg Queen - "Gah....?"
Janeway - "Who's the pwetty Borg Queen?"
Star Trek Enterprise - Never has a series used time travel to such levels of craptitude. And why in the frick didn't the Klingons just destroy the earth, I mean we had one ship, and it was like 500 light years from home. Besides that Captain Archer seemed to be really in love with his dog. And again we heard Trekkies sign whenever ratings were down as they had to run through the decontamination chamber in thier federation issued under roo's. And this time they had more guys in thier underwear then girls.
Archer - "Wow I didn't realize how boring space really was. Lets go kill something, so I can act all tough guy"
T-Pol - "Just let me change into another really clingy catsuit that gives me a federation regulation wedgie"
Archer - "Hail them so we can have an obviously hilarious mis understanding because they're speaking a language that we've never heard of before and we don't have the Deux ex Machina translater"
TPol - "I just blew the backside out of my skin tight pants, join me in decomm captain"
