I didn't realise the anniversary of the original airing was today. Massive fan of the franchise, been watching the again as they recently came onto Netflix.

Anyone looking forward to the new show that's due out early next year?

Ditto. Although I'm not sure it's socially acceptable to recall that song as a response to any situation. Haha.

Seeing as it matches exactly the title of the thread (which was probably intentional), this is the one and only time!!
Unfortunately I also have the side effect of having the song going round my head on repeat...

one of the ways to annoy fans of either is to quote the other at them: say live long and prosper to SW fans on May 4th, or say may the force be with you to a Trekkie....

No, it's when you see a trekkie at a convention dressed as spok, and ask him why he hadn't put on yodas green paint yet?
