Is all the dysfunction more "Real"? Yes, certainly. But isn't the whole point of Sci-Fantasy to suspend reality?

Kai LordStarFyre! Well said!
I cannot count the number of times how depressed I would get watching the RDM version. Week after week of "why in Gre'thor am I alive" feeling. You NEVER felt that way with TOS. My Kahless, if it wasn't for my morbid curiosity on RDM's frakked up version I would have been driven to hunt this pataQ down and stick him on a pike!
If I wanted to feel this way about our humanity then I would just need to sit in front of my TV and watch the news and read our local/national newspapers!
