    Just finished my dozen-th or so rewatch of DS9 (man I was a dumb kid not to have appreciated it when it was live)

    Starting on Voyager again, i think I’m up to season 3, but i just let the jellyfin keep playing.

      It’s really great! From what I hear you weren’t the only person to not be a fan when it came out! I’ve met various Trek fans who always avoided it until recently, and now it’s one of their favorites.

      I honestly never realized Voyager and Enterprise were this popular until I started following Lemmy more!

      I use Jellyfin as well, it’s so much nicer than going to the shelf to grab the cases to stick the disk in. Having it keep track for where I am in the series is also a plus.

        Growing up, i never knew if the vcr recorded properly, if my dad recorded over it, so the semi serialized aspect didn’t appeal to me. Watching straight through, with the last episode still fresh, does better service to ds9 than a weekly release ever did.

        And it’s great not to have to track anything. I get home, hit “next up…” and veg-out to Voyager.

          Yeah, some of the episodes do work a lot better when they’re watched back to back.
