His War Against the Chtorr began well, but he dragged it out too long. I lost interest before the series ended.
Ended? Ended you say?
<laughs hysterically>
The series didn’t end. He got into a dispute and, because the person he had the dispute with (publisher?) has first right of print, he will never complete the series.
Which is ok, because it had turned to crap by then anyway.
The Trouble with Tribbles was and continues to be one of the most popular episodes of ST:TOS because it was “the funny one” among a bunch of others that dealt with more or less serious social issues, the mean-spirited ending notwithstanding.
Not to derail,well maybe a little, but I love the “funny one” from ST:TNG even better: “A Fistful of Datas.” Micheal Dorn, much like Shatner before him in TWT, is a surprisingly good comedic actor. 
Just one in a series of notably unrealistic choices people made in the ST universe.
I am also fond of Sisko explaining the Starfleet dress code 75 years “Command wore gold, medical wore blue, engineering wore red” and Dax says “And women wore less”
I love the episode and the ending. It is probably the only Star Trek episode of any series where the captain is flat out clueless about the wheat.
Of course the Klingons deserved to get infested with tribbles. They insulted the Enterprise. Somethings are worth fighting for.
Uh-huh.
More than a year later now… I still think it’s more credible, and more elegant, to just reject the first.
Klingons had ridges all along. There was no bone-dissolving, gene-rebuilding virus. The Worf line in “Trials” was a fourth-wall joke from writers to fans. The Trekverse is better with the Enterprise retcon eps avoided.
I wonder if Tribbles would get along with Hortas.
The “la-la-la I can’t hear you” defence. Yeah, I’m with you on that one.
I agree.
Enterprise did some very good things, and some bad fan fick. 
…
The Trekverse is better with Enterprise avoided entirely.
The Klingon ridges, the time war, killing of you know who fellated with great alacrity, but the pre-Federation concept, the conflicts with the Vulcans and such I enjoyed.
On the whole, I could live with just TOS and DS9.
The only thing that bothers is the use of money. But that’s no big deal.
Money was used in TOS, TNG, and DS9, too. The most reasonable conclusion on the money thing is that the occasional remarks about its obsolescence represented idealism on the part of those characters, not an actual, fully-realized state of affairs throughout the Federation.
Disagree. Best to consider *Enterprise *what it is- fictional future historical fiction. It’s like Gunsmoke for the next generation.
I always assumed that the two different Klingon’s we’ve seen were genetically related but not identical, perhaps similar to homosapiens and Neanderthal who evolved on the same planet and were involved in war against each other almost from the beginning. In TOS, one race was ascendant and perhaps used the other as slave labor (Star Fleet Battles fans will recall that D-7s had mostly slave crews, with the command deck and neck boom able to detatch from the main section should the slaves in back revolt). By the time of TNG, the tables had turned. This would also explain why Klingon warships went from being sleek affairs to those lumpy things we got later on, the radical change in clothing styles, new emphasis on physical strength instead of cunning - two different cultures, two different asthetics and styles.
Made sense to me at least.
That would be great. The only thing this doesn’t explain is how did Kang, Kor, and Koloth regrow their forhead ridges? Or is that merely cosmetic surgery?
We do not speak of it.
