Being a geek, I love Star Trek. I’m sorry, I can’t help it. I enjoy the amount of thought that goes into it. Take the difference between the original Star Trek series and Star Trek: The Next Generation. The original series was like the Wild West. Kirk was a futuristic gunslinger exploring the galaxy, pushing back frontiers, and breaking all the rules. In Next Generation, the federation had grown up, and those pioneering days were over. It was about politics and alliances. New discoveries were happening, but at a slower pace.
