Happy Star Trek Day! What was your first contact? - eviltoast

To commemorate Star Trek Day, I thought we could share our entry points to the franchise. I expect we’ll find the full range of experiences.

    Trying to get out of doing homework, me and my siblings would join my mom to watch her Star Trek - she didn’t object. Most times, it was TNG, with the occasional bit of DS9 or VOY.

    She had actually gotten into TNG as a teenager - she’d read a few novels from her local library and kind of liked it. She then found Wil Wheaton hot enough to actually watch the show. (She may have watched a bit before that, but that’s my recollection, at least).
