I was into the Trek fandom from ~1987-88 to 2001.  Reruns of The Original
Series (AKA TOS on alt.startrek) hooked me.  Didn't dig TNG until the
second or third season.  Same thing happened with DS9, but with Voyager, I
was hooked on the Trek franchise by then to catch the premiere but lost
interest around season six of VOY and never bothered with the most recent
incarnation, Enterprise.  I've seen all the ST movies, except for Nemesis.

Speaking of DS9, ahh, I have some fond memories because I met the actors
at the last Weekend on the Promenade convention (accidently 'insulted' an
actor by being honest--a definite Polaroid moment--and had another actor
email me via the event coordinator because he was curious about a partial
sentence I slipped on) and a number of DS9 slashers, especially
Garak/Bashir (*Pocketbooks* actually published a heavily gay subtext scene
between them in one book), transitioned over to become prominent
writers/artists/archivists of Gryffindor/Slytherin slash pairings.  I've
gotten some emails where HP folks were like 'I know you but you may not
remember me from the Trek fandom'.

On reflection, I don't know which series out of TNG/DS9/VOY I'd consider
my favorite.  I'll always have some warm fuzzies for the original series.

There are a multitude of fannish 'crossovers' from various fandoms.
