When I accompanied my friends to see Star Trek Into Darkness last Friday, I knew it was against my
better judgment. I grew up watching the 1979 motion picture, The Wrath of Khan, The Voyage Home, and the later films as they reached theatres. Part
of my family’s Sunday ritual was to sit down and watch that week’s episode of The Next Generation. When Deep Space Nine aired, we added that
series to our retinue as well, and I followed Voyager through the bulk of its seven-season run.
