How to start my wife on Trek?

[Krieg1981]

Not being sure which forum to post this (whether TOS or Movies), I'll start it here.

I'm recently married and want to introduce Star Trek to my new bride. She knows I love it, but has never seen any movies or episodes. So, where do suggest I start her?

I'd like to start with either TOS episodes or movies. My quesdtion, I guess, is should I start with some episodes and then a few movies? Or start with TMP? Maybe Space Seed followed by TWOK? The Cage, Where No Man, and...

Any suggestions?

I tried that with my wife........it didn't work! She thinks I'm polluting our son's mind. Good luck!

As a man happily married for 10 years, here's my advice to you: Forget it.

I think it's nice when couples can enjoy something together though.

I agree. That's why we love things like LOST, 24, X-Files, and House. We built our relationship on those things, and respect the differences in our own personal tastes. In music, she likes Roxette, which I hate, and I dig Queens Of The Stone Age, which she dispises. But we meet on common ground with musicians like Moby, early Dave Matthews Band, and Rammstein. It's the give and take and consensus building that makes for a stable relationship. Did I mention that I've been married for 10 years.
