On Facebook someone asked for people's choice as their own personal doctor from a selection of Trek and related shows. I don't care about that question, and I'm not inviting Pulaski bashing. I just want to point out the inclusion of Doctor Westphalen from Seaquest DSV...


PNQ: What's the pseudo-Trek series from the past that you think is the most overlooked today?


Because Seaquest DSV has to be up there. Babylon 5 still gets love, Andromeda still gets love, Stargate still gets love, but not Seaquest. Why?


PNQ: What could be argued to be the earliest pseudo-Trek series?


I hope you understand what I mean by "pseudo-Trek", because I'm not sure I can define it without a separate screed. I don't think Planet of the Apes or Battlestar Galactica or Lost in Space count.


I'm also going to exclude all of Roddenberry's failed pilots and Andromeda because they seem too easy.
