I enjoy star trek I love the original series and I also love the next generations too, and my most favorite episodes of the original series, are the menagerie parts 1 and 2 its the episodes with captain pike, of course I have a few other favorites from the original series, Well I'd love to name a few of my favorites from the next generation but there episode names escape me at the moment but my favorite's characters of that series are of course captain picard and data and troy her telepathic powers are cool. are you a trekkie too and what did you like most about the show?

I've never ever in my life watched a full episode of Star Trek. I don't understand how you can find it interesting. Do they still make episodes?

Well no they haven't made any new episodes, but they still show the reruns of both series, in fact they have a new movie out in the theater right now and it has a new cast, I guess only a Trekkie can understand the fun of watching these shows, well thanks for posting.

Not to the extent that I learned to speak Klingon,Wear Vulcan Ears,or attend conventions,(though I travelled to the "Star Trek" Experience in London when it was in town!)but I'd have to say Yes to being a Trekkie-It's been a part of Entertainment for Me growing up,and it's good to see with the new Movie reboot that it could get another lease of Life! There's Too many good moments and episodes across all the incarnations for me to go into them here,or if I did list some,there'd be others I forgot or omitted..though I must say Some of the things I enjoyed from TOS got addressed in the new Movie!

I think that by my member name & my present avatar ... it's obvious.
I, too, have my favorite episodes from the original Star Trek, The Next Generation & Deep Space Nine, & Voyager. However, I did end up falling asleep through many of the Enterprise episodes. It has also been a while since I've seen The Animated Series (even if that is considered non-canon - not sure why).
From The Original Series, some of my personal favorites are:
Errand Of Mercy
Day Of The Dove
Balance Of Terror
The Enterprise Incident
The Next Generation:
Sin Of The Fathers
Redemption I & II
The Defector
Deep Space Nine:
A Matter Of Honor
(Most of the last three years)
Voyager:
Flashback
I've probably left a lot of good ones out, either because of not knowing the episode title &/or forgetfulness.

Yup, i a and always have been, most likely since i grew up with a dad and brother who were both trekkies and even my husband is a fan too! I must have watched every espisode that's been aired, some many times over! We are currently watching old espisodes of Generations on Virgin1 (uk - freeview). We even had to record the second part of a two-parter when we went out last Thursday night so that we wouldn't miss it! I guess i just love everything about the show, the characters, the sci-fi & technology elements, the storylines. I'm not a fan of soap operas or dramas so i guess Star Trek is my geeky equivelant!

YES I AM!But I have not seen the movie yet, and that is for a simple reason. Thru my real estate association I buy movie tickets at a discount, but the caviat is that I can not see them in the first two weeks.
This is not a big deal to me to save money.

Yes I plan to see the new movie too, but money is a bit tight for me, so I might have to waite until the film comes out on HBO or DVD, but if things work out well I might be able to spring for tickets, I guess ill have to waite and see how things turn out, anyway thanks for posting and live long and prosper as spock would say LOL.

Yes, I am a Trek fan....and I am proud to be one. I just like just about everything about the show. It was and still is a unique show with a unique perspective on everything. I am a fan of Captain Kirk.
