Big Grin I was going to post that when DB first posted it but I didn't know if anyone else would enjoy it as much as I did.

I get the impression there are quite a few ST:TNG fans on this site, myself included.

Have you seen The Guild? Will Wheaton has a very amusing role in that series.

The Guild was quite entertaining, and yeah Wheaton is pretty good in it. I think it's on Netflix now, all mashed into a big single episode as opposed to how it was originally presented on it's site as lots of 5 - 10 minute deals.

ST:TNG was by far my most favourite TV series of all time. I still watch it on the Space channel, even though I pretty much know every episode's dialogue from memory.

It's one of my favourites, but I think I still have to give the all-time favourite award to B5.

I could never get into B5. I watched a few episodes here and there, but it always felt like a forced DS9 ripoff.

After season one, you had to pretty much follow the show every week as it was more an epic mini-series that was broke into 1 hour chunks. If you missed one episode, you missed a portion of the story and if you missed multiples, you were flat out lost from there on. Overall, B5 was one of the best Sci-Fi shows in existance because it tried to use plausible science.

It's funny you should say that. Straczynski pitched his ideas for B5 to Paramount first, and gave them a lot of the material for the show, but in the end, they passed on it. Then, a couple of months after Warner signed on for the show, Paramount announced their plans for DS9, which included plots and characters remarkably similar to ones that Straczynski had given them when they were in discussion about B5.
