TNG fans please identify yourselves ...

I was 16 when I first heard about the TNG announcement. Having loved TOS reruns and movies, I was looking forward to it. I initially believed that Riker was the captain and was shocked and disappointed when turned out to be the old, bald English guy.

I still watched it and grew to love it. As strange as it may seem, I still recall dreaming about sleeping in my quarters to the hum of the Enterprise D engines.

As much as I loved TOS, TNG was really what turned me into a Trek fan. DS9 is my favorite, but not by much. Picard S3 was definitely a gift to my generation.

 

I grew up watching old TOS with my dad during cold Canadian winters and found TNG around age 9 when Farpoint premiered on TV and was hooked from day one. Really loved DS9 as well and when both shows aired it was truly Trek paradise. Also watched VOY and ENT but both of those were a mixed bag for me and never quite measured up to the others. Deliberately missed most Trek since but will likely check out Picard season 3 to see the reunion.

 

TNG is just good stuff. It's cosy and warm, occasionally challenging, and it turns frequently fascinating or dull. Often within the space of one episode. But it's a nice show to watch and the best of it can comfortably call itself some of the best Star Trek ever made.

It must be nearly 20 years ago since I first marathoned the whole show. Wow. Where does time go?

It's not my favourite, but I will always, always love it. I love spending time onboard the Enterprise-D with Picard and his Pals.

 

Been a TNG fan since 2014 at the very least. It is one of my favorite Star Trek shows, I personally like it more than TOS. Picard is an excellent captain and I loved TNG very much.

 

Hello! Absolutely new to Star Trek within the past year, but I have fallen in love with it. I started watching TNG and have to say Data is my favorite character of all. Q is insufferable but I enjoy the episodes he appears in! I'm hoping to backtrack soon and watch the Original Series. Happy to be here!

 

I’m all aquiver to know what good qualities you found in Sub Rosa.

 

I’ve been a TNG fan since I waited for a new episode every week as a kid. I also watched TOS reruns, and enjoyed them thoroughly, but I never got that family feel from it that I had/have with TNG.
Picard was portrayed as being deeply uncomfortable with children, yet they somehow made him more of a father figure than any other Trek captain before or since.
I think I was a little too young to fully appreciate all the nuances of DS9, but I’ll always have a soft spot for Odo and Quark.

 

There's one good thing in 'Sub Rosa'.
Me being a 'The New World Zorro' fan as a kid and I guess on some level to this day, Zorro plays the ghost. =)

 

I’m not sure I ever saw that series, but I just pulled it up! I’m always looking for something good to watch with my kids.
