Oh man a Star Trek book club! I'd love to do it... but I'll probably forget after like a week. I'll subscribe and hopefully I remember.

BAH! I have been waiting for these to hit Netflix for months, and after seeing this thread I thought they went up early.
Damn you, Forrester! I was wanting to do a marathon today on my day off. Now I have to wait until Friday.

Yes. I did want to buy the box sets, but they are still expensive. I only like Next Generations and Voyager though.
Can you stream these too?

Following along with the original series probably wont be that big of an issue since there was only three seasons and most of the selection I think are from the first two (not sure though). It wouldnt be until TNG stuff that it might become more spread out since there are more seasons but you should watch at your own pace and not feel forced to keep up.
But otherwise I think it would perfectly fine to ask questions here even if its not with the current episodes of the week. Plenty of enthusiastic Trek fans to answer and many episodes arent listed so there should be plenty of room to bring them up and discuss

Fuck Enterprise.
It sucks that we have to wait longeer for DS9, that's the one I'm most interested in revisiting.

I've never seen an episode of Star Trek so I guess this is my chance to finally get into it. I've been pretty hooked on X-Files, another show I just started watching, so I hope I can really get into this also.

No, it's not that bad. The ending kicks you in the balls though
Pretty Big Spoiler, you have been warned:
They kill off one of the main characters for no real good reason in the last episode and the story is told through flashback during the TNG era with it's cast....so the last episode was a TNG episode basically

Don't hate me.
Same here. We are rare I guess. I actually loathe Deep Space Nine, but I'm sure many here like that series.
Here's the thing about Enterprise. It starts with that awful intro song. It also has sub-par plots, and kinda horrid acting. However, the themes that they are dealing with, namely what is humanity as they are coming into their own in the galaxy. They explore a lot of really interesting sociological issues in the transition from what we know of society today to what we see in TNG. That kind of exploration is what makes Star Trek great, and I really think they did a fantastic job of it in Enterprise.
Plus Jolene Blalock.
It's okay, Philistine.

I'd like a new Star Trek with Captain Bauer at the Helm please. Would love to see Jack square off with some fools with a bat'leth.davepoobond said:
Most interested in seeing DS9, Sisko is the man. TNG is also awesome and I watched a bunch of episodes last year when I had a DVR, now I can finally watch it from start to finish. Never have seen many of the TOS episodes so I will have to catch up there. Voyager is ok and I will watch last. Enterprise simply doesn't exist to me.

This would be the order of my list. For so long my favorite captain was Picard, but I've changed my opinion to Ben Sisko.googleplex said:

David Ellis told me I should post here as we've been nerding out about ST over IM.
My contribution to the thread is I've heard strong rumors about the TNG-HD remaster coming sometime in the not-too-distant future. Here's hopin.
Kinda stoked to watch DS9 again though, I've seen TOS and TNG many times over, but DS9 I've only watched a couple times, and only in my youth.

Keep your Sailor Moon out of our Star Trek thread.
Nerd.
Voyager could have so easily been saved as well-
1-temporal/transdimensional accident or some such bollocks.
2-worf gets transported to the voyager bridge.
3-after less then a day worf murders the bulk of the senior staff for gross incompetence and takes command.
4-rest of the show chronicles worf taking voyager home and spreading klingon wisdom along the way.
5-(optional) worf mounts janeways head on a stick and keeps it in view of the main screen for negotiation purposes.
bingo, show saved.

Wahhhhh people put down my favorite Trek waaahhhhh
My Star Trek viewing has been so scattered. I've never watched any of the series chronologically. Just random episodes whenever they were on TV. So I'm kind of interested in watching each series in its entirety. Anyone else planning on doing this? Or an abridged viewing the better route?
TOS: 3 seasons, 79 episodes
NG: 7 seasons, 178 episodes
DS9: 7 seasons, 176 episodes
Voyager: 7 seasons, 172 episodes
Enterprise: 4 seasons, 98 episodes
Total: 28 seasons, 703 episodes
Damn, that's gonna take a while...
