Comment on Happy Star Trek Day! What was your first contact?

TNG was being first aired throughout my childhood and I would catch the odd episode here and there when I got to stay up and watch it with my parents to guide me, as suggested. But I didn’t get into Trek properly until I worked in construction as a labouror, my first job. When there’s no work, there’s daytime TV re-runs. The Space Network, the Canadian version of The Sci-Fi Channel, would run 2 TNGs back to back from 12-2. I got way into it then. I then watched all the series’. Now, every year or two, I’ll just throw on the first episode of TOS and go right until the end of the whole franchise in mostly air date order. I even have a playlist that has all of the overlapling seasons from the 90s to play as one big series, playing each episode by air date/chronological order based on a chronology I found online. Keeps it spicy.

It’s interesting to play by air date. I never considered that, but it would be cool to have to have it rotate between series the way a fan in the 90s would have watched it.
So you use jellyfin to make this playlist?

I use Plex. Jellyfin looks great, I try it every so often to see how it’s progressed, but it’s just not quite polished enough for me to make the switch yet.
I used this as my guide: …blogspot.com/…/and-now-conclusion.html
Except of course the Enterprise finale, I watch that at the end of enterprise, not in the middle of TNG.
