Hi! I understand you know a lot about Star Trek! Are you a fan of The Next Generation TV Show? The TNG movies? OR another part of the series?
I like everything associated, even original Captain James Kirk, played by William Shatner, and his crew exploring space in twenty third century!
Nice! So, do you have a favorite all-time captain? If so, who and why?
William Shatner, I guess because he is iconic for his portrayal of captian in his seven decades of television.
That makes sense, so what are your thoughts on him versus Picard in the TNG? Why do they both make good captains?
I guess the self pittying by Picard, blaming himself for Crushers death kinda did it for me.
So, what about technical prowess? Diplomacy? Leadership? Innovation? Who is better for each category?
I perceive your a fan. Not sure who I would pick. Are you a fan of the animated series, or spin offs?
Good question, I remember the animated series. It fit the times and was an interesting take on the show. I didn't mind Star Trek Enterprise.
