        Fuck the lore. Half the hardcore fans who know all the lore just use it to bitch about inconsistencies. Dive in wherever you like and everything you need to know will be exposited to you by a convenient captain’s log or an over loquacious android.

        Watch a couple of the original cast movies, maybe stream TNG while you’re doing chores and before you know it your one of us

          All I had to do was force feed my wife a couple SMW episodes and she said “oh! It’s a melodrama with costumes and lasers, and occasionally they have courtroom episodes where they ignore procedure and monolog and whoever gets the last one wins” and she loves it now

          I saw the JJ Abrams movies, but I’ve pretty much just watched the original, TNG, and sometimes DS9 on repeat for years. Finally starting Voyager now…
