Message   Al Kaiser    All   Star Trek Next Generation   April 4, 2019

So I've decided to watch STNG startting with season one all the way through
to season seven.  I'm getting the discs from Netflix.  Lets see if the have
them all or I have to go to the library to get any missing discs like I did
with other series I wanted to watch.  I'm just on season one disc 2 which
should arrive tommorrow.  I should be able to watch the four in one day and
get it back in the mail Friday.  Hopefully they will ship Monday and I'll
have the next disc next Tuesday.  I should average about a disc and a half
a week.  I figure about three weeks per season I should be able to run
through them all in a little over 5 months if my math is good.  I watch on
this schedule and they have all the discs in stock and ship on time.

I also was thinking, "why did they have to end this at 7 years"?  They could
have continued the series.  Hey look at series like NCIS, NCIS LA, NCIS New
Orleans, Jag, Hawaii 50, and many westernes that will or have run well over 10
years.  They could have continued and just "moved characters along" in their
Star Fleet careers or as they passed away or decided to leave the show.

And why did it always have to be about the Enterprise?  Voyager was back they
could do stories about them, also Deep Space Nine, introduced new characters,
enemies, friends ect.  Could have made it the standard about Trek in the
"original timeline".  Could have resolved the "Sisco" issue in Deep Space Nine
where they left him in "limbo".  More with the Borg, Species 8472, other "Q"s
(Just don't bring back the Kazon!)

Could have called it something like Star Trek the Continuing Generations.

Maybe if they did that we would not be having to deal with the alternate
timline that we have now with the Movies.  (And wouldn't those stores in the
orignal timeline with those actors made a great part of the series?)  I would
not have minded seeing more of early Kirk, Spock and the crew.
