Think I might know what it is.

OMG NK propaganda cartoon lol

Drop by the site? pff I never left it. So you've been around since Star Trek, that's pretty impressive. When did you first realize that you wanted to be part of the furry community?

I just saw the entire Original Series for the 50th anniversary of Star Trek.

It's better than being 10 years older than" Trek" like I ! for myself i'm still a Fireball XL5 kid...(google it ) ....on to Sabrina online.....

Heh, I go back to Supercar!

Try 11 years older, like me. LOL. God! I had forgotten about Fireball XL-5. That was the first marionette show I remember seeing. You ARE old! LOL.

I'm more of a "Thunderbirds" kid, myself. I discovered it one morning in the late 1960s when I saw the listing, thought it had something to do with the USAF aerobatic team, tuned in and was pleasantly hooked immediately...

Yours Puppy is two years older than Trek, but I didn't really become aware of it until age ten or so. It's been a pretty damn big thing in my life, yup.

I was 6 when it first came out, watched it with my sister, and some of the episodes scared the patooties out of me!

(Like "Charlie X" and "Lights Of Zetar.")

This month also marks the 20th anniversary of the debut of "Sabrina Online" (not to mention the death of Tupac Shakur).

Both groups are such large monolithic story blocks that you would be in for years of reading if you wanted to start at the first one and go from there. I tend to avoid both as over-fanned. and go read things like Sabrina Online, or books like Stardoc, or any of the Kitty Norville books. and of course the dear departed ferry boat lover, Mr. Chalker and his well world.

Sabrina need a good party. A Wedding and a B-Day on the same month? Damn that girl have luck.

Now I'm wanting to see pinup art of that skunkette that catches the bouquet

EWS, in the words of Admiral Spock, "Live long and prosper"

My post about Star Trek's 50th. anniversary on Amazing Stories. http://amazingstoriesmag.com/2016/0.....-year-mission/

I have since revised the text, but AS hasn't updated the file, yet. Hopefully, tomorrow.

There are people on this site older than me. Wow, how often do I still get to say that online these days...?

Phaugh. I was nine the night The Original Series debuted.

And yes, I read the latest episodes.

I like the idea of Eudora and ZigZag bonding.

Happy Anniversary!

Wow! It's been a while since I saw you make a comment anywhere. Good to see you again. (I'm sure you don't remember seeing me. LOL.)

I wasn't sure who you were talking about at first. But, if I recall correctly, Sabrina's mother's name is Endora (the same name as Samantha Stevens' mother). I believe he named all the women in Sabrina's family (that we've ever met) after TV witches, for some strange reason. LOL.

I make several comments a day, but I'll guess the Venn diagram of where I post and where you watch must be slim. : )

It's good to see you too!

As for Endora, it's my fault for relying on my poor memory for names.

No problem with the names. I just remember the names of Sabrina's family because I used to watch "Bewitched" and I actually met Melissa Joan Hart on the set of a movie I was in. To tell the truth, I was a bit surprised that Eric chose to name Sabrina's father Warren instead of another male witch character.

You're probably right about where I watch and where you post. I know I have your FA page in my favorites but I haven't been there for a while, especially since I've been uploading a story I completed some time back and wanted to get opinions from potential readers.

I'm old lol got Trek beat by 3.
The new Treks other than design, they pretty much nailed the characters.

If I drop by the site again, I'm probably going to be re-read the ENTIRE Archive again. My memory blanks on a lot of it, 'cept the really memorable bits involving Zigg Zagg. XD

I'm a few years older.
Somewhere out there, one of my childhood friends has original Star Trek episodes on VHS. ^^

It's interesting, isn't it? My dad was twelve years old when the show first aired. He grew up with the original series, and has been a die hard fan ever since. I'm glad that I can say the same! :)

ST: Beyond was pretty good imo, I would recommend watching it at least once.

Just old enough to have watched Trek first run, barely.

Thanks for the hint on Sabrina, youngster.

Star Trek delved into serious sci-fi more often than Star Wars. Star Wars had some amazing worldbuilding, but it was more mystical space opera than solid sci-fi. Star Trek also had a lot more stories to tell (granted many of them weren't worth telling, but lots were).

I'm three months older than Star Trek. I've never had a problem liking both Star Trek and Star Wars. Each as its own goodness.

I love Sabrina, always been one of my favorites. :)

I like both Wars and Trek, for differing reasons. But if I had to pick just one franchise...

Yeah, it's Sophie's choice. I'd probably end up siding on the Star Wars side because Darth Vader.

For me, siding with Star Wars would be for the X wings.

-Badger-

You make a strong case.

Oh my god. I've been following your work since the 1990s.

I was born the year NBC finally took Star Trek off the air. But that put me in a prime slot to be old enough to see and enjoy the animated Star Trek and what merchandise was offered at the time like the official shirts sold at Sears that even had a kid appropriate sized patches for command or science division. It's a bit funny that I don't ever remember seeing a red shirt being offered.

I was born while the original series was still running, so I have a couple of years on you... and that distinction and 4 bucks will get me a small coffee at Starbucks, if I was crazy enough to go there.

"Wait for me!"

Me, I'm more than a bit polder than Star Trek. You're just a young pup... >^_^<

I'm 3.5 years younger than Trek. I didn't realize there was a club. (sighs and pops his back)

You babe in diapers. LOL. I was born when Gene Roddenberry was still writing scripts for TV cop shows.

So you're just a puppy then? I only saw one episode first run, but I guess that still qualifies me as a Trekie, not a Trekker.

that depends on how you define the difference between "trekkie" and "trekker". not being an active participant in the fandom, I set myself as trekkie.

I think it was an 80's/90's thing. Those coming into the fandom from the movies and Next Gen. insisted on being called Trekkers because they thought it sounded more sophisticated. Yeah. Sure.

who knows. bet it had something to do with the Torching trekkies got in one documentary film back when.

Wow, Eric! You put Zig Zag on a diet. She's a bit smaller and a bit more curvy in the last four strips. I like that change. BTW, I love the way Endora invited herself along with Zig. I'm wondering if she's going to learn more about Zig or if she's going because she's still having a hard time accepting R.C. as her son-in-law. LOL.

still find it hard to believe it the fact that i was not aware of this and i use to be a big star trek fan i should of known this im not as old as trek but only by a decade but im getting forgetful in my older years ^^

I'm 14 years younger then Trek and 2 years younger than A New Hope (I was born in '79), so I'm not that old yet, but I'm still getting up there. I may not be a Grey Muzzle in age, but I definitely am in hair color (I got my first white hair at age 20, and they've been multiplying like rabbits ever since).

Re: JJ version. I think the casting has been really well done for the crew and they've been working hard in trying to recapture the feel of Trek but I also feel sorry for the actors for being given really dumb scripts. I mean, the Enterprise, top of the line Federation explorer and heavy cruiser, bested by 100 year old mining equipment being flown by a bunch of Mad Max rejects???

that "100 year old mining equipment" is still newer than the JJprise, and has been enhanced with borg addons

I was old enough to see ST:TOS when it first went into sydication in the early 70's. The main reason why it was so popular was because if you liked science fiction, you really had nothing else to watch in the US. All the major networks ran mostly crime dramas or vriety shows. It wasn't until the mid to late 70's that British imports like UFO, Space:1999 and Dr. Who began to appear in on local TV stations in syndicated form.

didn't know there were so many first and second gen trekkies/ers around. thanks for taking some of the grey out of my greymuzzle :P

I was born yesterday (literally) and was officially 6 years old when Dezilu Studios premiered Star Trek on NBC.

Yes!! I actually share my birthday with something famous. Always liked the show, and the variations its had: And the most recent movie is eye candy, with a good solid story.

Now I must go read this months Sabrina; I'm loving the story line BTW.

So now we have the third Science Fiction series that managed to hold out for half a century.

what's the other one? cause Star Wars hits forty NEXT year. the Buck Rogers and Flash Gordon IP's are now really obscure, and trek's contemporary "lost in Space" has gone poof. the only other one I can think of that's well vintage enough is the stuff like the obscure "captian Video" of the early fifties and the one involving the ship "Fireball XL-5"

Perry Rhodan ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perry_Rhodan )
Yes, it quite obscure outside Germany.
Yes, it is a printed pulp series.
But I just read issue 2873, plus the series had spin-offs and novels and it has been in continued print since 1961.

Oh, and they did this:
http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-S8-_-H6xn.....2BStargate.JPG

it's like someone mentioning Raumptourille Orion (is that spelled right?). I'd heard of THAT series when I picked up a Sci-fi themes CD that turned out to be a light electronic-dance remix of the themes in question. Promptly fell in love with the take on the RO theme music. when I remembered it again, I tried to look it up on youtube. and you know what happens to series on youtube :P

The full title is 'Raumpatrouille – Die phantastischen Abenteuer des Raumschiffes Orion' or 'Space Patroul – The fantastic adventures of the spaceship Orion' translated to english. Though many including myself do call it 'Raumpatrouille Orion'. BTW, I had to check for the full title myself.

But yes, I also love the soundtrack as well as the series.

But you are older than Garfield's 1st strip in 1978.
http://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1978/06/19

I was all about Garfield when I was a kid.

I remember Lyman, the guy who actually owned Odie originally, before disappearing into vapor.

Technically Roddenberry made The Cage in 1964 and showed it to the execs. In '65 he made the second pilot, Where No Man Has Gone Before, after they gave him a second chance. So technically, you're 7 years younger than it by virtue of its existence rather than its broadcast...

I'm four years older than Trek, but my memories are of syndication (it was paired with Space: 1999 in Philly in the 70s).

Oh, and count this as a vote for Eudora x Zigzag after an evening of heavy drinking...

Man for me it was growing up with TNG. Always loved the culture brought by Picard and handling with Q. XD

Woo~!

Wedding success!!!

^..^

pffft Kids!!!!

You're close to the same age as Trek. You need a successful new TV series. Your life power is tied to the franchise!

Actually I'm just a bit older...

I think they were trying that with the colonoscopy... That anesthesiologist was certainly eager to go where no man had gone before...

Star Trek : Beyond was pretty good, I enjoyed it.
