Boldly going where noone has gone before

Any star trek fans out there? I never watched it in my youth but as i have tired with the deliquent destruction of my once beloved star wars and seclusion to a networkless atmosphere i have begun watching it. At first i only liked enterprise. I loved deep space nine and detested voyager. After seeing several episodes of voyager i can say the only two characters i like slash identify with are seven of nine and captain janeway. Im sure this will leave much up to debate but personally i find these old star trek episodes have what the new star wars movies lack and the hoi polloi desire: meaningful and identifiable characters that show feeling and intrepidation.

I used to be a rabid Star Trek fan, I remember Jean Luc Picard and 7 of nine with her costume spray painted on. I remember Captain Janeway, but not her particular crew.
Lots of memories about Klingons, Vulcans, the Borg. Actually the only thing I couldn't stand about original Star Trek series was Captain Kirk. Nowadays he would have been in hot water for the way he lusted after all the women. What a pig.

Kirk was the reason I never watched it to begin with. I despise characters like him. The show itself is pretty soap opera like. I cant bring myself to watch the movies. I think itll just be too different. Plus my favorite episodes are those that usually revolve around one crew member. Im not really there for the space junk

Loved the next gen. and I walked around every once in a while when DS9 was on the air telling people who asked any sort of question "the Sisco knows"

I grew up watching TNG with my dad, I love all the old movies and series'. I have watched every episode of every series many many times. I lovee the old klingons from TNG-DS9 and even voyager. Dont get me started on those Orion slave girls though lol // I dont like the newest series, the newer movies are good but not the same to me. I'm actually watching Voyager now, one of the girls i date lovess it.

I actually have the starship enterprise tattooed in the center of my chest with some of the planets from the opening sequence of TNG and a banner that says, "what a long strange trip it's been"

I love this. Couldnt stand "the sisko must not die" garbage. He knows nothing. You told him nothing. But you need him to save us all. Seriously wtf

I've got a tattoo too; a tng combadge in the appropriate location.

My favourite series overall is likely DS9; I just think the story arc was so much more exciting than what had come before, and allowed for deeper development. Loved VOY too; Janeway is my favourite captain; more tangible acts of sacrifice and risk.

Agree with @drumstick diva regarding Kirk (Riker is similarly repulsive, Bashir, Paris...). There are a lot of uncomfortable episodes of TOS and early TNG when viewed through modern eyes; a lot of outdated views on race, gender and sexuality.

ENT was redeemable at times; just terribly bland. I think they chose an unexciting setting on the time line and just ran out of momentum.

Loved Discovery, but can't really see it as part of the same universe; has to be viewed in its own right. Loved the brutality of it, and the polished look.

Live long and prosper.

My next two tattoos will also be startrek / grateful dead themed and I have one planned that is a johnny 5 / daniel boone combo tattoo lol . I dig nerdy things. triforce could be cool if it was done in an original way, so many of them out there.

watching TNG now // I need my daily dose of klingon
