   So I've decided to watch STNG startting with season one all the way through   
   to season seven.  I'm getting the discs from Netflix.  Lets see if the have   
   them all or I have to go to the library to get any missing discs like I did   
   with other series I wanted to watch.  I'm just on season one disc 2 which   
   should arrive tommorrow.  I should be able to watch the four in one day and   
   get it back in the mail Friday.  Hopefully they will ship Monday and I'll   
   have the next disc next Tuesday.  I should average about a disc and a half   
   a week.  I figure about three weeks per season I should be able to run   
   through them all in a little over 5 months if my math is good.  I watch on   
   this schedule and they have all the discs in stock and ship on time.   
      
   I also was thinking, "why did they have to end this at 7 years"?  They could   
   have continued the series.  Hey look at series like NCIS, NCIS LA, NCIS New   
   Orleans, Jag, Hawaii 50, and many westernes that will or have run well over 10   
   years.  They could have continued and just "moved characters along" in their   
   Star Fleet careers or as they passed away or decided to leave the show.   
      
   And why did it always have to be about the Enterprise?  Voyager was back they   
   could do stories about them, also Deep Space Nine, introduced new characters,   
   enemies, friends ect.  Could have made it the standard about Trek in the   
   "original timeline".  Could have resolved the "Sisco" issue in Deep Space Nine   
   where they left him in "limbo".  More with the Borg, Species 8472, other "Q"s   
   (Just don't bring back the Kazon!)   
      
   Could have called it something like Star Trek the Continuing Generations.   
      
   Maybe if they did that we would not be having to deal with the alternate   
   timline that we have now with the Movies.  (And wouldn't those stores in the   
   orignal timeline with those actors made a great part of the series?)  I would   
   not have minded seeing more of early Kirk, Spock and the crew.
