I did like both Star Wars and Star Trek. I have seen everything of classic to TNG Star Trek (I have virtually not seen an Star Wars series yet ignoring D+). That means indeed all movies and all episodes. The only thing I haven’t seen only a few episodes is the old animation series. Had on my Netflix list too long and now all is gone… I also haven’t seen all of LOWER DECKS which is really fun as I am relying on TV here (I don’t have and want Paramount+) and only the first free epsiode of ACADEMY. TNG is great I watched it after school in TV as it was shown pre-prime-time. I like VOYAGER as well – I even like ENTERPRISE but I really love DS9.

My first encounter was as a child with TOS in TV of course. I didn’t see it completely then because it was not shown completely in TV back then as usual and mixed up in order a bit if I recall right. I rewatched really completely and in English the frst time on Netflix.

The Abrams films I can tolerate as a reboot – you cannot use TOS setting nowadays – although as it was quite fittingly casted although unnecessary.

Same problem I have with DISCOVERY which didn’t fit as a prequel at all and IMHO it got better after the time jump and should always have played in the future right away. STRANGE NEW WORLDS does a much better job modernizing the setting and is my favorite show of the news ones (just recently saw Season 1+2). PICARD was okay as a kind of nostalgia. As mention I like the silly over the top references in LOWER DECKS. PRODIGY was okay once you could get used to the animimaton.

Scorewise I have a lot. The Goldsmiths of course. The first as the expanded 3CD set and the fitht as 2CD Lalaland edition, and WRATH OF KHAN in the FSM edition. All others just in standard versions partly digital only (boots not counted………). I do have these olde TNG and best of editions for the TV stuff and the first DS9 Box from Lalaland. TNG area music of course tends bit to meander around and requires Thor’s whittling 😉

Of the Giacchinos I have the first as CD and I was really disappointed to bored… Once a fan of his game scores and TV scores he started to leave me cold beginning with MI3 specifally. I have the 2nd digitally though but not the third.

The music of the “New Trek” is mostly uninteressting, here seems STRANGE NEW WORLDS the most interesting but I haven’t listened to it outside the episodes. LOWER DECKS has a nice nostalgic traditional Star Trek score though

My first encounter with Star Trek was when it replaced Space:1999 on TV. I loved “Space:1999”. Star Trek then was kind of a letdown.

I had never seen this in childhood expect maybe bits as I knew the theme and the eagles. Just around 10 or so years ago it was shown again and as much as the premise is nonsense I really liked it, too.
