My youngest is home on break working her way through Deep Space 9 - [View all]

for me, hands down one of the best series ever, not just best Star trek or best Sci-Fi! We just watched "Rocks and Shoals" from Season 6. It is still very unsettling, in a good way.

I raised my kids on Star Trek- I wonder if that's one reason they all turned out so well!
