Exactly!

I never cared much for the TNG series. I found all the characters annoying. Data irritated me the most. I thought the concept of the character ludicrous! An android of unknown origin in Star Fleet? WTF! What did he do, just wander into a Federation recruiting office tell them he wanted to “ Be All He Could Be!”? They said sure sign here! Maybe it was a Star Fleet press gang, they knocked him on the head and “Shiver me timbers!” he’s in Star Fleet! Then there is Councilor Troi! What they take their high school guidance councilor into space! My special disdain was for Picard! A real leader so much so that he couldn’t make any real tough command decisions until he brought his space bartender (Whoopi Goldberg!)into the discussion!
I don’t think I made it through a single episode!

Now I did like DS9, I thought it was well written and compelling. The one character I did dislike was the alien that had the worm in her. I thought that was a stupid concept. It made no sense biologically and my mind ruined the story line.

The worst TNG episode was when Lt. Yar was killed by a sentient tar pit.

If you’re a leading actor exiting an ongoing series, you certainly want to end on something better than that.

Watching the CAGE ...

Funny that SciFi has Not been my
favorite all these years,

But ‘The Cage’ strikes a nerve.

Love The original Series!

Yes, how silly to ask advice from your SIX HUNDRED YEAR OLD alien bartender who has been hopping around the galaxy for a 500 years, has past experience of major threats like Q and Borg. What wisdom could they possibly have to offer ?
