A lot, I think. At the time of TNG’s initial broadcast, TOS was omnipresent in syndication. And outside of TAS, the only Star Trek series at the time. Star Trek fans watched the heck out of TOS. Then, the Star Trek movies with the TOS cast. The first four films were released before TNG.

Friend, I hate to say this, but TNG aired 35 years ago…

I’m aware. So is the newspaper article this post is about.

Surely most, right?
I’m a millennial, and TOS was my first introduction to Trek.

I’ve seen maybe a quarter of the episodes. Seen every other trek episode multiple times.
