I'm not sure this concept will work well.

Much like the only Start Trek to fail - Deep Space 9 - keeping people stuck in one spot never works.

I'm not sure the character base works well either. The women chosen so far are good actresses, good looking and have ok parts. The men though, with the exception of Lou Diamond Phillips don't have a high 'hotness' rating, so their characters need to really be well worked. I'm just not seeing it... still hoping though...

Last, but not even remotely least, the lack of women in good roles continues... I find that really annoying. Why do more than 60% of all the leads have to be dominated by men? Women watch too! Grrrr....
Do you find this valuable?

I loved DS9. It's my favorite ST series. It ran for the 7 years it was supposed to run unlike Enterprise which was canceled after 4 seasons.

I find that unless the show has a female lead, al of the women on the show have subordinate positions and sometimes not a lot to work with.

Most people don't care enough to complain. If they did I think we'd have better roles for women. Do you find this valuable?
