There is hope, Captain. I used to think Star Trek was only for super science brains: The type of people who as adults can still recite the periodic table on command, give themselves homework for fun and eat cereal for dinner. By these assumed metrics, I was never in danger of becoming a fan.So, when my ex said we should watch Star Trek: The Next Generation I was borderline offended.
I loved this. My parents owned a fur toy factory during the 1960’s and made koala bears and kangaroos. When business got slow they got the idea to make Tribbles from the scrap fur pieces. They sold hundreds of them and saved their business. True story.
I wanted to be a crew member on the Enterprise sooo much, watching TNG in my teens. The original series felt cheesy even 30 years ago, but I still adored them and devoured all the episodes of each new spin off. Loved this Keeley, thank you 🙏
Any-body, earthly or otherwise "seeing a vision of the future and it hasn’t all turned to crap." is/will be adored by me, plus, to "...a replicator making my dinner and a holodeck to dive into after a bad day fighting with my version of Klingons." Absolutely YES!!
Keeley I loved every word of this, my dear, long departed, mum was such a Trekkie, she never missed an episode which meant no-one else did either!

Sigh. Yes. Wouldn't it be lovely if it was somehow prophetic. And yes - you're invited join me in my holodeck as soon as they work that one out. :)
Thank you so much Susie, means a lot. And it sounds like your mum had amazing taste in shows. Did she have a favourite series? x
