PostTue Aug 12, 2003 7:09 pm    Why did they decide to add the temperal Cold War now????

Why all of a sudden we have this temperal cold war wen there wasnt really any indication that it exsisted in other time zones.I know that the ep :Captians Holiday" on TNG there were Vorhas that came from the 27th centary to get that device that can destroy stars...but cant trilitium do that?And of corse there Bracstine in VOY but the first time we saew him it had nothing to od with the TEMP war.......and the 2md time was because he ended up with temperal psychosis and god perminitly releived of duty..and wanted to erase VOY from the time zone..........but i think that was more out of anger....then it was a TEMP war.........so what do u think?

I think that the producers havn't thought the Temporal Cold War through properly. You'd think that such a thing would at least be referenced to in one of the other series with it being quite a big thing. Still, the producers wanted to create some kind of arc storyline to keep going throughout a few seasons or perhaps the whole show...so they came up with the Temporal Cold War.

Perhaps there will be, at the end of the series, something that will happen that will cancel the Temporal Cold War so that in the end, there was no cold war and thats why it was never mentioned...

Personally I hope that doesn't happen because it will mean the ship and crew will have stood for nothing and have, in effect, been erased from the trek "universe"...

i think that they just added it to bring the show up. they need something big really badly. they cant just have exploraing or the show would become very bad. thats just what i think.

The Temporal Cold War was there from the start so I figure the producers thought it something they hadn't done before. I don't think enough time was spent emphasing what the war is about though...IMO it's lost its momentum...

Well, I've never heard anyone talk about sulibans in any other show, either.

Perhaps after the Kabul (I've no idea if that's spelt right) is overthrown, the rest of the Suliban will feel so ashamed they'll change the name of the race...perhaps they have been referred to in later series, just under a different name...

A lame excuse I know...

Let's just hope they didn't continue with modifying themselves.

I thought that only the Kabul genertically modified themselves...if they were overthrown and eventually died out, maybe there would be no more genetically modified ones..
