Industry Focus

Everything Star Trek. Yes, even Enterprise. I watched my first episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation at three years old (Best of Both Worlds Part 1), and promptly insisted on going to a Star Trek convention for my birthday. Since then, I've watched nearly every episode of every Trek series as well as most of the movies. Yes, even the odd-numbered ones.
