The signal to noise ratio of interesting thought provoking Trek content vs 'Neelix gets trapped in the holodeck with Luxanna Troi and Reg Barclay' - type situations was just too high.
(I do realize there was no such episode, and that Neelix never even made it to a-Quad)
Trek was good in the early 90's, but that would be a horrible waste of time watching all those old episodes (especially those pre-7/9 Voyager episodes!)
Really looking forward to the movie though. :)
That would add 22 episodes...roughly 11 more hours of programming.
But seriously, the amount of Star Trek programming boggles the mind. The combined episode count pretty much warrants all that convention craziness...
As a general critique of Star Trek - each series past TOS had at least one character that bugged me, hence keeping me from enjoying each series to its fullest. In Next Gen it was Wesley, Deep Space Nine either Odo or those annoying Ferengi, Voyager it was Neelix, and Enterprise - well the captain, and TPol (what the heck was up with that decontamination gel). The Xindi space thing was the last straw.
If I ever do watch all this stuff I'll likely go in chronological order, meaning I'll start with Next Generation. I guess I can add watching every star trek episode ever made to my list of things to do before I die :)
I haven't seen all of Enterprise, though the 4th season really picked up with the "mini-arc" format and much better story concepts. Too bad they didn't get the chance to experiment with that for another season or two. The final episode, though, is complete and utter not-even-a-pretense-at-effort garbage. Worse even than The Outrageous Okona.
