@ChicaWolverina Not actually, DS9 is one of the best series of trek in the franchise. It showed what the galaxy is truly like, not the happy happy gift wrapped universe that Gene had through TNG. Now don't get me wrong, I love the message Gene had in TNG, but when you deal with the rest of the universe you are undoubtedly going to encounter darkness in most if not all species. War will always be apart of our universe, and that is what DS9 showed, even though Humanity had grown, it still had...
You're assuming that humanity will still be the same in the 24th century as it is NOW. That was the great thing about Gene Roddenberry's vision of the future that was rejected by Rick Berman (and now JJ Abrams) - the idea that humans will EVOLVE into better people by then. It's basically about giving people HOPE for the future, not dwelling in a stagnant cesspool of all of humanity's WORST traits.
@ChicaWolverina dark side. That is why DS9 is one of the best. Voyager was another good one because it to showed the darkside of Humanity. Take the Equinox science ship and her crew. Sure Starfleet claims to be all humane and loving but look what happens when a starfleet crew gets stranded thousands of lightyears from home, they start to do anything, including murdering a species just to get home. Even Captain Janeway made choices like that. Honestly that shows more reality that TNG ever could.
Your wrong, no matter how far we go Humans and all alien life will have a darkside. Now i am not saying we need to show wars and violence in every Star Trek series. I am saying we need to admit to ourselves that we will always be fighting with our inner darkness. I agree with you about Gene message, I long for the day when we Humans will see each other not as Americans, Chinese, or Arab, but rather as Terrans. But I also realize that when that happens, we still will always have demons to fight.
cause all the wars in our world because instead of understanding what people are really saying you interpret incorrectly and look how many wars have been caused by that sort of thing. Look how much hate and anger you directed at me in your last post when all I said was that we will still have things to work on! And by the way Gene approved the script for DS9 and said that it was a good idea and would add more realism, that was in the biography show about him! Way to be hypocritical LuLz!

But it's still Terok Nor. When are you going to roll out the Frontier Station in your intro?
