...but this current idea at Paramount of "StarFleet Acadamy" and getting new actors to play a young Kirk and Spock is just plain stupid...

one simply doesn't try to do Spock or Kirk unless one is Nimoy and Shatner - it becomes not a performance but a parody, no matter how serious one tries to be.

when they try to rehash a concept to make it new again, they usually just screw it up.

take for example pretty much every movie remake of a 70s show?

on the other hand, the new Dr. Who (the original subject, no?) is fantastic!

how many shows have tanked after adding the gratuitous cute kid to it?

quite a few...

oops, got my original post mixed up with the other i did today.

still, take TNG as a worthy successor to TOS?
