RE: Is he joking?

Berman killed Kirk later that year. His most insulting attack on TOS to date.

I saw Generations back in 1994 but I never really noticed that Kirk died. Not until I read it sometime last year on the net. But I remember how painful it was to watch the NCC1701-D crash. My favourite ship! But the truth is, I've gotten over it.

I respect that some fans are TOS fixated, just like I've grown up with TNG. But I don't understand why TOS characters would be more relevant for the finale episode of ENT. Correct me if I'm wrong but there was no holodeck in the TOS era, right? So it would change the premise of the final episode completely.

I consider the story in TATV a metaphor for the current situation with Star Trek. It wasn't really a Troi/Riker episode although they did steal our attention (not necessarely a lot of screen time, but our attention). I think the episode is more like a letter from B&B to the fans of ENT and I think, it makes it an intersting episode to try and decipher. Riker, Trip, Archer - is sort of speaking on behalf of B&B.

Of course, the finale episode could have turned out another way, but the most important thing is, it turned out well... (subjective opinion, I know)
