Best damn show in the 'verse'.
TOS the original series for me, I can't say that I enjoyed the last Star Trek movie, but I did find it watchable, however I remember leaving the cinema and stepping out onto the polluted noisy streets of Budapest and thinking "this isn't the future I was promised".
I've never enjoyed the films to be honest and struggled with Deep Space 9. I've ripped the original series and TNG to hard drive (and the original Twilight Zone) and often have them playing in the background when I'm on my PC, a bit like 'comfort food' they are 'comfort viewing' for me
Bit of a Star Trek fan myself, I've also just finished reading the Star Trek Encyclopedia on Kindle. If there's any truth to it, It was touch and go whether it actually made it to the screen, until Lucille Ball stepped in.
This is where I get a bit geeky on the subject of Star Trek. Picard was by far the best actual Captain for the kind of ship the Enterprise was. Kirk was probably a better soldier but the purppose of the ship was exploration not war.
Not that I have looked to deeply at the minutia of the show.

Im with Shewie on this Sci fi bores the pants off me, the only good thing about any of them was Jolene blalock.

That said, Jolene and 7 of 9 are ding dong tasty totty
Genevieve Bujold was cast as Janeway but its said she packed in after a couple of days shooting the show and realising the commitment needed for a long running series, shame really as she was/is a stunning looking woman and fine actress.

Actually no. The "purpose" of the ship was indeed a warship. It just happened to be on a "five year mission" of exploration. Much the same way today's Coast Guard ships (patrol cutters) also do exploration and experimentation.
You might be right. I tend to watch everything on the cable channels now and new & reruns tend to blend together. That said I expect that as it's been resurected so many times, it will be again.
In the interests of balance, my sister was but a slip of a girl in the late sixties when they showed the episode where Mr. Sulu goes a bit bonkers, there is a point where he was running about bare chested and my sister recalls watching that scene and thinking "oh gosh".

I guess I'm showing my age here, but for me, the quintesential hot totty in the star trek universe, was Yeoman Rand.
Your sister had no chance sanbender
Indeed, allegedly most of his fellow actors knew he was gay and were quite cool with it, which is a bit surprising for the US in the sixties, even if it was the west coast.
