As a child of the '60s, I loved the original Star Trek and thought "The Next Generation" was very good too, but these questions are a little too challenging for me. I'll be interested in seeing how others score.

I got 13 out of 15!
jeez... am I that much of a geek?
Answer: Yes. And I can prove it...
I actually get the reference. I believe Tranya is liquor served up to Kirk by a child-like god who closely resembles a jacked-up Mini Me.If you get 10-14 right: You sure can hold your Tranya!

That's the one! The kid who played the "child-like god" was Ron Howard's brother Clint! That episode really creeped me out when I saw it for the first time a 10 years old! The green faced alien (mannequin as we learn) gave me nightmares for months!

I got 10/15. Not bad for someone who's only ever seen 3 of the original series episodes. I'm more of a TNG fan myself.

I have depressed myself with a 12 / 15. Although I love the idea of the combat maneuever called "The Chekov Scream!"

My new blog. It's probably not as good as I think it is.

I've hung around enough TOS Trekkies to pick up on a few things, and I did watch all the movies (although every other one kind of blurred in my memory). Originally Posted by jayd512 You only seen 3? and you got that many right!?!

Well, I was around for the the original showing of the orignal series. Got 13 of 15. Missed #1 and #7.
Sometimes, real fast is almost as good as real time.
