Star Trek
Welcome to a Star Trek community where you’re free to chat and share your opinions about all things Trek!
I want to have a place where fans can come to praise, discuss, and even criticise things in the Star Trek franchise. No show or movie is perfect, and I don't believe people should be silenced for having a dissenting opinion. That being said, there are still a few rules.
Be Nice - No personal attacks. You can disagree with someone's opinion, but it needs to stop there.
No Slurs - This is applicable to ethnicity, religion, gender, or anything else.
No Adult Content - Keep it family friendly.
No Spamming or Trolling - Consistently spamming comments or trolling is just not needed.
Please keep topics Trek related or Trek adjacent for the most part, and have fun!

I don't know if I'd go that far. I enjoyed it when it first aired but I can't watch reruns of about 90% of the episodes.
As someone who loves TNG, it's a very mixed bag of a show. It has very high highs, and very low lows. It's a product of its era of television for better or worse.
I also didn't grow up in the 80's. I feel like part of the appeal is childhood memories. Watching later for the first time doesn't have the same effect.
I think an attachment to the characters, nostalgic or otherwise, is necessary to enjoy all of TNG. That way even in bad episodes, it's character you enjoy just doing silly things. Without that attachment A LOT of TNG can be hard to get through.
