Sorry for the harsh words, CK, but I think NG is better than ST in one critical area: NG has a captain who speaks English! Patrick Stewart is superb, whether captaining a starship, or playing the ultimate fascist maitre d'hotel in LA Story Shatner, on the other hand is a buffoon, a scene-hogger whose laughable intonations ruin every line he delivers.

Don't speak what I assume to be Klingon, but I bet it was about removing various parts of my anatomy with a blunt knife ...
Personally, I thought Patrick Stewart's best part was as a Borg.
I was actually using Star Trek as an exemplar of a principle rather than picking on ST or NG or BMW or Austin or Rover or Sachs of Sixth Avenue ...
Spin-offs rarely do well. Yes, there have been exceptions, but in general they lack originality and unless they are a spin-off at one or two removes, wind up essentially retreading the story lines from the parent series.
