Yes, SNW is a worthy spiritual successor to TOS.

This episode exists because of the stupid Starfleet rule of having traumatized veterans of the war have to interact positively with the supposedly bad-to-good turned war crime enemy. That’s a classic example of people acting stupid for “plot” (e.g. we couldn’t have this episode without the stupid bit).

When Galaxy Quest came out, Wil Wheaton called Patrick Stewart and told him to go to the theater and see “the best Star Trek movie ever made.”

For ST, the Voyager looked good, but I didn’t like the moving nacelles. The updated Enterprise from the first movie was my favorite iteration of the Big-E.

But, my favorite ship is the Omega class destroyer from Babylon 5. (sue me)
