My husband and I were having a conversation the other day when sometime during the course of it, he ended up showing me a clip of Star Trek, TNG, of which he is a fan of himself. (Not a trekkie, but a fan, might I add...). I saw it and had to watch the whole episode and after watching the whole episode, I watched another, and another, and another...
I can't believe it! I've never felt such a compulsion to sit down and watch something on TV! This is a fantastic show! Is it normal to be instantly hooked on this?

My sister (who didn't like Star Trek either) kept telling me I'd like TNG but I kept making jokes about it. I saw the opener of one and was so taken with it, I watched the whole episode. And lo, it was good. I was instantly hooked, the same way you are.
I'm jealous that I've seen every single one and you've still got that pleasure to come. Some of them are breathtakingly good.
P.S. When you're done with them all, then you've got Voyager. That was pretty great too. Especially when Tuvok goes back to 1990s earth and decides to dress as a rapper. Oh, look, said I, it's Tuvok Shakur. And my girlfriend of the time wet herself. :)
My father, interestingly enough, is named Kirk. Yes, after THAT Kirk.
There is a reason for the novel ideas that Gene Roddenberry introduced us to.
