To commemorate Star Trek Day, I thought we could share our entry points to the franchise. I expect we'll find the full range of experiences.

I have never really been into Star Trek but that's mostly because I have never properly introduced myself to it.

My first contact was the 2009 film Star Trek, which upon looking at the rest of the franchise feels so grandiose in the action genre but also had a few great character moments. I enjoyed that one and then the Black Mirror parody episode U.S.S Callister was really good too

Besides that I have seen a few odd scenes and memes but really want to get into the series someday.
