Oh, now I did it. I probably started an "old show vs new show" war again.

But seriously, the new series is shocking and unlike anything else we've seen on weekly TV. I love when a cast of unknowns is pushed hard and turn out such great performances. I can't believe the Chief's journey from geek to psycho. All the interactions are interesting, the conflicts full of surprises, and the actions downright chilling at times. Kudos for a show where the whole universe changes and the story is obviously going places.

I got so tired of the Star Trek formula where life stays the same forever and nobody ever moves faster than a brisk walk even if their ship is on fire.

The original show was cute. But forgettable. The new one has some staying power.
