My main takeaway from this is that we need a new Star Trek series with just Jeffrey Combs and Rachel Dratch playing every role.

Yes, except one role for Robert Picardo for them to play off of.

Should I finally watch this "Star Trek" that everyone is talking about?

I watched Boston Legal nine times before I realized it wasn't a new Star Trek.

Not the new one, though.

I loved the original, and I'm always wary of sequels, but I'll check it out. Thanks.

It's not the worst thing in the world, but I'm not sure I'd go so far as to call it good. It's definitely not better than or even as good as the original.

Rachel Dratch was supposed to play Jenna Maroney, but NBC decided she wasn't hot enough. She was all over the first season of 30 Rock as a consolation.

I 100% feel they did Dratch dirty, but at the same time, I really enjoyed Krakowski as Jenna and cannot imagine anyone else playing her. Dratch is also a fantastic character actress, and I really enjoyed all the various one-off roles she played through the show's run.

I did not know that Weyune is also Brint, or Brunt, or whatever his name is. Cool!
