I'd like to say something in this thread before it goes much further....

Prior to the beginning of this year, Fleets did not have a "Criticisms" forum. The suggestion was made that the intent to keep Fleets a "happy place" that maybe those that had something to say, whether it was good or bad, that there wasn't a proper venue for it.

After some deliberation, it was decided to create a place for those that had critiques for the new or the old series and this is it. There is only one or two restrictions on it - that the critiques stay focused on the show(s), just not the individuals or whichever segment of fandom that doesn't agree whatever aspects of either shows being critiqued.

In short, if someone wants to criticize TOS in the Criticisms forum, they can - without reprisals. Lively discussion maybe, but no reprisals. The same goes for the miniseries or the new series - critique is fine, but don't cry about someone saying something that you don't like.

If anyone feels that they like either show to the point where it is undeserving of such criticism, then hanging out in this part of the forum is not for the thin skinned.

The one thing about television entertainment, is that the quality of such entertainment is subjective. Some will like what others don't and vice versa.

No opinions will be suppressed here as long as they are made in an intelligent and respective manner.

I hope that the message is getting through.....

Sincerley,
