I did not like Star Trek when I was little!
But one of my older brothers always wanted to watch it which caused problems because I didn't want to watch it. I watched it reluctantly at times as a little kid.
When I was 10 I started reading & buying comic books - this probably kicked off my love for sci-fi (as movies, TV shows, fanzines, and novels would follow - at one point I even had a subscription to Isaac Asimov's science fiction magazine).
In my early teens I "rediscovered" Star Trek and suddenly I couldn't get enough of the reruns.
Then I started writing sci-fi, and Star Trek was a huge influence (most of my early sci-fi stories resembled a combination of Star Trek, Battlestar Galactica & Buck Rogers - all on TV at the time!)

Star Trek seems to be one of those shows that you just can't appreciate when you're too young. It's not just riding a starship around in space and fighting aliens. It requires thinking and paying attention to really appreciate it.
