I finished watching the first six Star Trek movies (The ones with the original cast:Kirk, Spock, etc), and began watching the first season episodes of the Next Generation. Encounter at Farpoint was good, but I have always found Q to be excessively irritating.

I find that I will very likely have to get the 7 seasons of Deep Space 9 after I finish the Next Generation - even if just to see Commander Sisko deck Q.

"You hit me! Picard never hit me!"
"I'm not Picard."
