I have decided to watch all the Star Trek series in the order of their airing from Next Generation forward. I estimate this will take me a year or eighteen months. In entering the DVDs into my Netflix queue, I discovered that there is, in fact, an upper limit to queue length. Who knew?

That's 25 seasons between the four series, plus the movies. Any bets on how long it will be until I am absolutely sick of Star Trek?

Very Important Question: Are you planning to interleave at all, or simply watch TNG->DS9->VOY->ENT? If you do interleave, will you interleave by season, episode, or some constructed logical/story/arc method?

What about Classic Trek?

My fledgling rewatching of nine seasons of CSI Las Vegas bows before your towering ambition.

It's pretty interesting stuff, though. So far, it's been more than rewatching a series--it's been a kind of time capsule. When did pagers go the way of the dodo? What possessed women to wear their hair that way? How little men's fashion has changed! Stuff like that gives rewatching a series more flavor than might be expected.

For you, it will be the advances in video tech--the coming of green-screen will be a big one, I bet. *g*

Screw Star Trek, what I want to know is what the upper limit of the Netflix Queue is!

Also, why not start with TOS? And will you watch those movies, too, or are you starting at Generations? I am curious because there has been a spate of Star Trek watching all around me lately, and I've been tempted to start in on DSN because I never saw any of it aside from the Tribble episode. (The rest I've seen enough of--one episode in Enterprise's case--to know that I don't really need to watch any more.)
