I believe the new fan is me. Thanks for the link.
I got another two TOS DVDs from the video store. Mum's restricted me to one episode a day in a useless attempt to prevent me from becoming a fan (too late) but I'm just gonna wait till she goes to bed and watch the rest then.
Btw, why are the episodes in such a weird order? Volume one had episode two and then episode seven or something like that.

Was it on or somewhere else that I saw a link to the "Top 10 Best Data Moments"? Some of them were quite chosen.

Two then seven? No idea.

It was indeed.

Is it just a best of, or there have been Captain's Choice or specific species compiliations?

Martin - there's a Data thread, where you might have seen something like that.

No, I remembered: I saw it on Facebook. So I put it on the Data thread (which I know you already saw, but...y'know)

Thanks Martin.

I watched ... Elaan of Troyius earlier and enjoyed it. I found the overdramatic music a bit much though.

No, all of the DVDs I get out have the episodes in a weird order. But I don't care; as long as I get to watch all of them I don't think that the order I watch them in really matters.

For the most part, that's true.

Do you have a favourite episode yet?

Anything in particular about those episodes that appealed to you?

Can't quite put my finger on what I liked about them. They were both very exciting. The kind of episodes that had me on the edge of my seat shouting suggestions and criticism at the television screen. (: I think my family thought me a little insane when I was going 'DON'T BE AN IDIOT, THE GIANTS WILL GET YOU!'

If it helps any, I sometimes feel inclined to provide commentary on soemthing we're watching on tv too.

Which episode do you plan to watch next?

Whichever ones are on the next disc. I need to go back to the video store to get the last two DVDs of the first series. I've been rewatching some episodes and I've decided that Balance of Terror has to be my favourite. I love the music, I love the Romulan ship and its commander, and I love the tactical warfare. And I'm fairly sure my Classics teacher would love the mention of Romulus and Remus.
