Oh pleas tng was a 7year long gay joke that never came to fruition. The first two seasons were good then it became a special effects driven piece of crap. How many times can you put an emotion chip in the android? Or have Picard start some doomed romance? Or Worf have to deal with some hidden part of his past back on Klingon? Riker just became a pathetic boyscout who had the show gone on any longer would have probably exploded on screen. Then to top it off every time they started to take a ratings hit it was the same crap "Let's bring back Q to spice things up". And honestly could Whoopi Goldberg's character have been any more lame.
Oh and I'd much rather have tribbles than intelligent minerals that posess the slowest firing laser in the history of tv.
At least the original had the excuse of being made in the 60's when everything about scifi was campy as hell.
