So, yes – you will definitely need to reset your phasers.

The following slides break down the five most re-watched episodes of Star Trek on Netflix, but the infographic (via io9) does have a few rules. Netflix barred the first two episodes of every series as they were the most popular re-watches in every category. For qualifying episodes, Netflix set a rule that at least 6 minutes of an episode needed to be viewed again by a user who had already seen that specific episode in its entirety.

And, as you can see below, Star Trek fans really love to revisit Voyager. Like, a lot.
