You are right, Machine - they are screwing it up. They are moving it around and messing with the 2.0 game, just like they did to kill TOS 2.0.

I used to play 2.0 all the time and I was on G4's chat room all the time, but they seem to want to sabotage everything they are successful with.

And, Wil, I still love ya! ;)

G4's programming strategy appears to be to drive people away from G4.In this respect they are wildly succcessful since, apart from TNG reruns, the only thing worth watching on G4 is X-Play... and they had nothing to do with developingth tha.

I'm sure they'll find a way to screw it up at some point.

No, I think Wil's right! G4 was actually able to find a replacement host for Arena that was ten times more annoying than he was... and that guy's still on the network!

Maybe it should be Star Trek *by* people with really bad ADHD, then?

I kid, I kid. But seriously, it was bad enough when TNN (back when Spike was TNN) put squished TNG and put "You're watching Star Trek: The Next Generation" across the bottom of the screen? Why the hell would G4 do this? I don't want to feel like I'm watching CNN Headline News when I watch Star Trek! Screw off!

I was momentarily surprised that Paramount let them do this, but then I remembered that Paramount also let Enterprise onto the air, and my surprise evaporated.

Gnrf.

I have moderately bad ADHD. Watching Star Trek 2.0 is really, really hard for me to do. I would like to watch the *show*, dammit, but there's all this *stuff* I have to *read* and agh NUMBERS and look INFORMATION and GOD this is insipid but it's MOVING and um what just happened to Edith Keeler there?

Yeah, screw it. I get Spike, TNG is still there, I'll watch that.

Maybe one of the things that scrolls by on the early episodes will be "Oh btw, Wil Wheaton hates that we're doing this."

I agree with Wil and others, it is annoying to watch with the original series. Its Star Trek for people with really bad case of ADHD.

And as far as the facts along the top go, most people who care already know 90% of them.

Jesus, has society as a whole gotten so ADHD-insane that sitting down to watch a show without a dozen other diversions is unthinkable?

Yeah, I've seen all the shows. And I'll see them again...but not like this. I'll watch them the way the directors and writers intended.

ST 2.0 reminds me of VH1's pop-up video.
