C/Risa is the reason I started watching Star Trek. Even without watching the show, they've got the best memes on lemmy.

Which series did you start with?

Currently about a season into Next Gen.

Oh man, I'm so excited for you. About halfway though Season 2 is when TNG really gets its legs.

TNG is where most people start, but I’d actually recommend watching the TOS movies first, personally. You can skip the first and fifth movie, the rest are pretty good.

I really enjoy TOS, but I know that a lot of people don’t have tolerance for 1960s productions. The TOS movies, starting with the second one, were made with a more modern style. You should watch them if only to get the proper impact from TNG’s ‘Relics’ episode.
