startrekHi there! *waves*
I've been a Trekker for about nineteen years - since DS9 was first shown on TV over here in the UK - although I've not actually taken part in the fandom as such, being a cash-strapped teen and not really knowing about fandom per se, let alone how to get into it. Still, now we're in the 21st Century with internet and all, and I'm here...
My favourite series is DS9 and my favourite character - the one I always wanted to be - is Major Kira Nerys.

And I can definitely empathise with Star Trek being 'comfort TV' - I'm pretty sure it exists for that purpose, and that purpose alone! It's the sheer escapism of being able to 'be' in the 24th century for an hour or so... That's probably why it's so darn popular!
