I was 13 and in 7th grade when the first show aired. I remember not liking it, so I never watched again. After all, there was already Batman, The Monkees, Lost In Space, and a zillion other great shows at that time. It took a few years of reruns in the 1970's for me to get hooked on Trek.

I was six and hated it because my parents loved it but it overlapped with "The Wild Wild West", which I loved, and being six, I was overruled on the TV set.

By the time I was 12, I'd completely changed my mind and went to my first ST convention in NYC. The registration line was long (some things never change at cons) and the person next to me was green. And Nichele Nichols shook my hand. :)
