I was just saying the other day that to make Papa (my dad) happy, we need to start her on Trek soon. I have a few fond memories of watching TNG with my dad and sister when I was a kid and I think he'd get a kick out of seeing her recognize the show and characters. Thanks for he heads up for Netflix!
