Bzzzzzzzzt. Sorry Clive, try again. I have very fond memories of the
first time I ever saw The Original Series, on late Saturday afternoons
(the Get Smart timeslot) on Channel 7 in Melbourne during the 70's.....
.....what's that?......you're not old enough to remember the 70's......
....Oh well, so much for speaking with authority.

Actually, if the more recent series of TNG are as idealogically correct
as what we've seen so far, perhaps Channel 9 are doing us a favor by
sticking to the let-it-wither-on-the-vine programming stratedgy.

Be Seeing You,
