Too true. You may remember awhile back that I was struggling with a simple math equation for faster-than-light travel (which you, incidentally, helped put me on the right direction for). It was a really minor detail for a sci-fi story I was working on that actually got a few chapters down, and when I submitted it for review by two beta reviewers and a potential publisher, literally all three of them said back to me, "Isn't this Star Trek: Enterprise, but with different names?"I was actually thinking about this the other day. I'm not sure it's possible to write a mildly sci-fi story that hasn't already been done by either Doctor Who or Star Trek or both.
Killed that little project pretty quickly.
