For my two penne'th Rhodenberry was forced to sell "treck" as a "cowboys in space" and had a series of morality/immorality plays alternating each week. As a point of (nerdish) fact they did have money in the first episode. The best part of the whole show for me was the humour! The development of "Worf" was brilliant (his line of "Captain I protest! I am not a merry man" whilst playing Will Scarlet to Picards Robin Hood, is one of my favourites. If you want good scripts then what about DS9's return to "the trouble with Tribbles" cutting back to a 20 year old story to weave a new one through it, whilst using the old footage........ OK I'll take the meds and go to bed now
