It wasn't enough for G4 to buy out and then utterly destroy TechTV. They had to go and screw up the original Star Trek, too.
And now, the programming geniuses over there are going to give Star Trek: The Next Generation the same treatment they gave the original Star Trek and put all that stupid 2.0 bullshit around it.
I absolutely hate that they're doing this. Star Trek 2.0 takes the content of the show -- presumably the reason people tune in to watch in the first place, and the reason the show is so popular to begin with -- and reduces it to a tiny afterthought on the screen, while a whole bunch of mindless crap scrolls by all around it.
Star Trek 2.0 is the visual equivalent of sitting next to someone who just won't shut up when you want to enjoy a program, and Star Trek:TNG 2.0 will be more of the same.
Jesus. Fucking. Christ. Is there anything G4 can't completely ruin?
