I was in college and grad school during the original run of Star Trek: The Next Generation (1987-1994), and followed the series very closely. During the last couple seasons of Deep Space Nine (1998-99), my wife and I had our first child, I started a tenure-track job, and I fell out of the TV-watching habit.
In November 2018, I fell ill over Thanksgiving weekend, and started rewatching TNG to pass the time. I can’t exactly say I’m bingeing the show, but I am enjoying writing up my thoughts as I work through the whole series. (See also ST:DS9 Rewatch)
