      I love me some TNG, but I’m imaging sitting down today, having never seen Star Trek, and for the first time in 2024 and watching “Encounter at Farpoint”. I don’t think that would go over well.

      That’s where I started too just a few years ago. I’ve since watched DS9, Voyager, Picard, Strange New Worlds, The Lower Decks and Discovery. I haven’t watched The Animated Series yet and I’ve watched random episodes of The Original Series but it’s not one I’ve had the urge to watch straight through.

      These shows can become addictive. :)
