That's kind of a shame. I was just starting to feel like maybe I could've
gotten into the new characters.

Oho! Was not aware of that, thank you for the pointer!

I would tend to agree with you there. I'd love if there was some sort of way
to continue on in the Next Generation vein for awhile, but something from maybe
some of the novel periods would be really interesting, too. There are a ton of
great ones that'd do well on screen.
I've been craving something trek lately; haven't seen all of the reboot
movies, either, so I guess I'm not burned out completely yet. :)
