Star Trek.

What was your favourite series?
For me, it had to be Voyager. The storylines were fantastic.

What is your favourite species?
For me, it had to be either the borg or the ferengi. They crack me up so much!

DS9, for sure. It had a good central conflict and the story was very tightly written.

DS9 was very good. It had great storylines. I always feel bad for poor Odo :[

I have to agree with voyager and the Borg, though not so much the Ferengi (the basterds tried to kill seven by modifying a hologram just so they could steal her nanoprobes).

Haha those pesky ferengi! They're always out to make money.

Yes Voyager was amazing. And Janeway was my favourite captain. It was a clever plot shooting the USS Voyager way into the Delta Quadrant. Opened up so many possibilities for weird and wonderful species.

I haven't seen Star Trek in aaaaaaaages. The only one I remember ever watching was Voyager, so that's my favorite, kinda, I guess. I watched it with my dad when I was little.

Wouldn't mind getting assimilated with her around, you could see the hint of disappointment on Picard's face as she fell back into the coolant, you could tell he wanted to become Locutus again. At least data admitted he liked the idea, well for a fraction of a second that is.

As for Data he provides a much need logic/comic relief/emotional side story, especially on a ship where I can't remember ever seeing a single Vulcan. Not to mention I can understand his difficulties in understanding humans. Though the episodes with his brother get on my nerves a bit since I get frustrated with doppelganger antics in any show. If you haven't seen Nemesis see it, overall it's not my favorite star trek movie(that spot is occupied by first contact), but Data's role in it I must admit brought a tear to my eye.

I don't have a favorite series, I like them all equally.

As for my favorite species, I'd say Cardassians.

I like the Romulans the best, and TNG was my favorite series.

Voyager comes in at a close second though.

My mom and brother watch Star Trek, at first I was like "why do you watch that weird crap?!" but now my mom has gotten me into The Next Generation, Data is the funniest character on the show.

Deep Space Nine. The writiing is just simply beyond that of the other shows.

Favorite species? Vorta. Devious little bastards but without the base greed of the Ferengi. Also, Jeffery Combs made the Vorta awesome.

Haven't watched Star Trek in a while...
But Picard will always have a special place in my heart.

I am not much for space adventures; however, if I ever go into space to live I am opening up a leather boutique.

I loved The Next Generation. I was crushed when it ended. In 1994?

My favourite species? I liked the Romulans. They are so gothy!
That Romulan Commander in St: Nemisis, the lady that helps the Enterprise attack Shinzon's ship was so Goth! Mmm mmm!

I loved both Data AND Lore! Lore was so badass!
I like the way he calls Data "dear brother".
In real life, I have a nasty relationship with my older brother,
my dear brother.
