The Romulans have got to be the most boring race out. The Klingons were laughable until TNG made them respectable.
I like the old Klingons but yes, I suppose we do own TNG the dinner-plate-headed crew!

Picard was amazing - the Borg are just the best race ever invented, closely followed by species 8472 of Voyager and then the Dominion with the Jem'Hadar. The M Continuum and Q were great, and the very wide spectrum of possible species they came up with. The Prime Directive really came into play more completely too.
I despise Picard, yes the Borg we an awesome enemy (almost as good as The Daleks) and species 8472 were OK (at least their ships/capabilities were), the Dominion were OK I suppose. I disliked Q (not sure what M is) and the Prime Directive was built to be broken, that's what it exists for (my opinion).
Agreed on Voyager though only the second half ... Kes irritated the flying fuck out of me!

I'm the reverse on that, Dax was OK I guess and I always found Odo irritating.

Er ... Kirk wasn't in "First Contact", he was in "Generations".
If you like Kirk you should see "Star Trek"
