It may not be the geek thing to say but I never thought Star Trek was that good. Sure TOS season 2 is great and about half of season 1. But has anybody actually watched TNG recently? Its just painfully bad. They took the idea of "boldly going where no man has gone before" and instead turned the enteprise into a taxi service version of waiting for an angel.....
DS9 I never got into due to finiding the just utterly better in every conceivable way B5 first.
Voyager I couldnt take seriously for two reasons.......Suddenly they cant fly home from the other side of the galaxy when the old Enterprise could get to the center of the galaxy in one episode or one movie. and..... 7 of 9 ..... seriously. when you put a character like that into a show just to get the male geek audience to watch then you really have become a parody of yourself.
The movies havent been any good since The Undiscovered Country.
Dont get me wrong when Star Trek was good it was very, very good. (wrath of Kahn, Undiscovered country, Doomsday machine, measure of a man, yesterdays enterprise) But when it was bad it was awefull. (spocks brain, the entire of Voyager and TNG)
So why did Star Trek die..........because it just wasnt that good to begin with and as its audience grew up they started to see its flaws more and more.

the episode of TNG where they flew to the outer rim of the galaxy it was due to a alien from Tau Alpha C called the traveler, really retarded too trying to mix thought and math/science into 1, I hated that char. anyways since they didn't have any such alien on Voyager they couldn't do that travel.
