    Star Trek

    I figured with the SW people tootin' their horns, I am putting out an APB on Star Trek fans (Original Series, Next Generation, Voyager, Deep Space Nine, etc.). I am The Original Series (1966 - 1969) geek. If you are a Star Trek fan, stand up and be counted!

      I love Deep Space Nine. I caught a good amount of it in the summer via Spike TV reruns, and it's easily the most engrossing Trek to me. Odo is my favorite character.

        I'm not the biggest Star Trek fan, but I catch it when I can (or just plain feel like it). I have a special love for Next Generation, as it was one of the few shows my dad and I got to watch together when I was little, but I also have a nostolagic feeling on the old series, especially the movies made around them (specifically the sixth, which was the first movie I ever saw in a theater). It's really been awhile since I've seen an episode of Star Trek, and now I really want to see it again. I've been debating getting one of the season sets, and that may be just what I do.

        I also say this, and take it as you will: I find Star Trek to be much closer to true science fiction then Star Wars.

          Referring to the second season, episode "Immunity Syndrome." That was a good episode.

                I like Star Trek quite a bit, only the original series, though. My dad is a big fan of the original series, we used to check out Star Trek videos from the Library. Nowadays he'll watch the reissued reruns on the local ABC affiliate.

                Next Generation and Enterprise were entertaining at times, but I will never go out of my way to watch them. Riker killed The Next Generation for me, I would have liked it a lot without him.

                Favorite original series episode: Arena

                        Did you see how they redesigned the Gorn and the Tholians on Star Trek: Enterprise? Pretty wild.

                          No I have not (yet anyway). I'll check it out. Have you heard of the dta base Memory Alpha? It is a website that has everything on Star Trek.

                            I've seen it, although I haven't been there in awhile. I originally found it while trying to find some decent shots of the Enterprise from the final Next Generation episode.
