Maybe I've just been lucky but I've never seen any of this 'true fan' stuff. (Don't get me wrong, I'm sure those people exist. But they're probably louder than the more chill fans, and fewer in numbers than you think.) Most people just seem happy that the series is still pulling in new fans. Is it a perfect fandom? Of course not. But a perfect fandom doesn't really exist either.

Anyway, you don't have to watch all of something to be a true fan. You don't have to be a master of obscure fandom related trivia or anything either, and if anyone acts like you do...well, fuck 'em.

When you have a franchise as huge as Star Trek it takes a lot of time (and possibly effort and money, depending on how difficult it is for you to find the episodes; then there are books, comics, games, etc...) to experience everything. Most people aren't going to look down on you for not being a completionist. Watch what you want, because that's the whole point of fandom in the first place; to have fun.

Maybe you're hanging out in the wrong parts of fandom?
