I've always been preferential to The Next Generation since my dad and I would watched it almost every night. I look back on it now and it all seems pretty naive and overreaching but it was still pretty intelligent. Besides, Patrick Stewart is a great actor. I resound the praise for the new movie. Kind of cruel to say, but it helps that Gene Roddenberry isn't there putting in some half-baked metaphor about the cold war within the plot which is pretty much all of the original series.
