The rules

Ok,here are some of my guiding principals for "Operation: Star Trek"

 1. Watch in "real" chronological order (e.g. Enterprise prequel before TOS)). I will be using the Star Trek Chronology Project list for viewing order. There are others around that are slightly different, but I like that they laid out their methodology (this is important stuff people...). The only addition is that I'll also watch the animated series directly following the original series and before the Motion Picture...and of course add Into Darkness, and anything else that might come along, at the end.

 2. I will post updates on my progress at major milestones (e.g. season and series completions). No promises on individual episode commentary, I definitely don't have a goal to do that for each episode. However, I'm sure I'll post some commentary as it goes on.

 3. Just for the heck of it, I'll post my most and least favorite episodes for each milestone.

 4. Spoilers - this is a tough one. I mean, we're talking about TV and movies that are, generally, several decades old. There will be spoilers.

 5. Time - Heh...no promises on this one other than I do intend to complete the project. I would have to imagine that this will take several years to complete. If I finish it any sooner than that please find me and put me out if my misery.

6. Abbreviations
TOS - the original series
TAS - the animated series
TNG - the Next Generation
DS9 - Deep Space Nine
VOY - Voyager
ENT - Enterprise (prequel series)
