I liked Deep Space Nine :( But Voyager was shit. And Enterprise was...fuck, let's just pretend Enterprise didn't exist :?
People think "queue" is just "q" followed by 4 silent letters.

But those letters are not silent.

They're just waiting their turn.

Deep Space Nine was great! Voyager wasn't shit at all, at least not the first few seasons, but most of us can agree on Enterprise. I mean, I couldn't really make it past the theme song anyway :hehe:

I was hoping it would follow after the recent movies with less yap and more zap, but it looks like it's going to be using the old soap opera in space formula.

Ooo, I haven't read those. Any good, or bit Jilly Cooper (OK while you're reading them but they don't linger after you turn over the last page)? Once I start one of those epic five-part trilogies I find my completistness kicks in and I kind of have to stick with 'em. I've been doing Peter F. Hamilton and Alastair Reynolds' trilogy of trilogies for my light reading this year.

They are perhaps a little low brow for a chap like you, but, IMO, good examples of the military space opera genre (and I have re-read them several times...)

The villains of the piece are crazed revolutionaries who overthrew a rather repressive star nation called Haven, only to replace it with a reign of terror, part Revolutionary France, part Stalinist Russia... They are opposed by the Star Kingdom of Manticore...

The leader of the revolutionaries is called Rob S. Pierre... :tea:

I just hope we never encounter the warp 10 salamander race again.
