Just curious if you see it the way I did in this respect.<br /><br />https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gmynXHrR74w<br /><br />or<br /><br />https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s6lmBbV3VWo<br /><br />GarySevenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06143212859961838247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8708273719674528189.post-1215506576643935162013-09-24T12:05:38.314-07:002013-09-24T12:05:38.314-07:00Cops can't write television, and when they do,...Cops can't write television, and when they do, they reflect boorish attitudes? Not surprising, in retrospect. It's hard to imagine just how underprofessionalized and content-starved the industry was at that point that a network would work with Roddenberry.<br /><br />I know people tend to have opinions (strong opinions even) about Star Trek and Roddenberry and that provides a fertile jumping-off point, but I would hope to see you flip this from fanfiction to your own original creation. <br /><br />The core of the idea is intriguing: philosopher kings have run the world, but their work has led to a democratic moment where their own role will suddenly be rejected. Was this their plan or have they lost control? What do they make of the stupidity, foolishness, ignorance of the democratic polity? Who in this story would champion the democratic spirit, show its possibility for human flourishing, the connection failure and triumph, risk and reward? Fertile stuff.Tom Crosbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04942888225118081569noreply@blogger.com
