[@ironwolf2244]

I'm not sure I have a favorite. But I do think :Enterprise: shouldn't get the flack it does. It showed a time in the Star Trek universe we'd never seen before. The first portable energy weapons used by Earth's forces. The relationship between Humanity and the Vulcans. The first encounters with the Klingons and the Romulans. The dynamic between the Andorians and other species. The changes that occured in Vulcan society early on, and how it would later reflect on Spock's own era. I enjoyed the Episode 'Impulse' it had horror type atmosphere, and explored Vulcan physiology, the long lost crew behaving like zombies after coming into contact with hazardous chemicals. And as an extra bonus, T'Pol was a complex character, showing her relationship with the human crew, particularly Trip. Who some might consider and unlikely couple, but I think they balanced each other well. And the beautiful actress Jolene Blalock portrayed the Vulcan mentality well I think.

For me enterprise is the best series. Yes it's different from other series but: How should the same Storytelling work without the Federation, without Federation Starfleet, without a Network of Starbases...... Enterprise had to show how the humanity started to become important in a galaxy dominated from other species and their conflicts.... and after this it had to show the way to the known institutions. Yes sometimes there had to be boring themes, but i think that every Episode has brought something important for the purpose of the series. Enterprise did what it had to do and i am sorry that they have cut it to 4 seasons and: Why didn't they give Archer his Federation Founding Speech ON SCREEN, instead of showing only his walk before.

@@andrewsokol2717 Yeah pretty much all of them were great, they got enough screen time to shine, despite having only 4 seasons instead of the 7 most other series had. And they didn´t got a single movie. I don´t want to say that the Next Gen Characters were bad, but they took a lot longer to establish such well flashed out characters. Especially Worf and O´Brien benefited (IMO) way more from their transitions to DS9 than from their first runs on TNG. And there would have been enough opportunity to just go on with this journey to establish a on-screen canon birth-of-the-federation-story until it would have been in the state "needed" for the original series to start from. In my eyes they really should have given Enterprise at least another season to give the changes of the 3rd and 4th season an opportunity to pay off. Yeah, the first two seasons were a bit lame but i really liked the Xindi-Arc and the Diplomacy-connected events in season 4 and i would have loved to see the transition from a coalition with multiple indendent fleets into a single body working to defend all of the members against a first Klingon invasion before the Coalition becomes the Federation.

[@stephenjenkins3995]

Discovery not in last place? I'm out!

[@emeraldknight5522]

Arguably, my list of the favorite "trek" series is as follows: 6) Discovery - Arguably the worst Trek show ever. Boring episodes, lousy acting. And above all did not to justice to the other Star Trek series. 5) Star Trek: The Animated Series - While not being the best series and only ran for one season, it arguably had some of the best features to the series. Sadly the only thing that really kept it being better was the fact that Walter Keonig unfortunately didn't make an appearance in the show as Chekov from the original series. 4) Star Trek Voyager - While the show debuted something the previous shows had not.. Namely a female captain and a female semi-Borg character being added and an arguably handsome looking ship, the Voyager series was pretty okay actually. Some of the episodes were good while some were just plain boring, But in all honesty, it ranked far better than Discovery. 3) Star Trek the Original Series - While only running for 3 seasons, Star Trek set the tone for pretty much every other Star Trek series to come. With actors such as Will Shatner, Leonard Nimoy, James Doohan and of course, the first ever doctor in Starfleet, DeForest Kelley (rest in peace), thus series was arguably one of the best series around. Featuring some of the best episodes and a different theme for every show.. This series remains one of the iconic series from the franchise. Not to mention, some very memorable actors to ever grace the show during its run time. 2) Star Trek: Deep Space Nine - Who could've figured that pulling together a run-down space station, add to it a Starfleet commander and a cast of assorted individuals such as a Bajoran first officer, a "trill" Science officer, a "frontier" Doctor, a shape-shifter security officer and a Ferengi bartender could've made for such an interesting and iconic series as Deep Space Nine. This was arguably one of the best series to date. Some of the best episodes featuring alien races never before seen in previous series. And the top spot goes to: 1) Star Trek The Next Generation - This series was arguably the BEST series of the whole franchise. With a run of 7 seasons, a iconic starship and a whole cast of assorted actors such as Patick Stewart, Jonathan Frakes, Marina Sirtis, Michael Dorn, Brent Spiner, LeVar Burton and a cast of others, this series was the best.

As an over arching narrative DS9 is the best of trek. But as for getting warm and fuzzy and having emotional attachment to the characters, nothing can beat TNG.

As I get older I find that I can rewatch TNG and (to a lesser degree) Voyager on near repeat.

What ensues is fun and funny! Also, more of the cast get pieces of screen time. 3 JOURNEY TO BABEL: S2E10 Classic TREK! Viewer not only get to see a KEY sequence during the early years of the Federation and how an alliance of planets function together, we get to see several aliens from these planets. The vicious, alien-sounding, rigid Andorians, the very rude, hostile Tellerites, and many others not specified. But the true enjoyment of this episode is the revelation of Spock's parents, and later, the vicious struggle between "duty" and "Love of family." All during a brutal space battle sequence! Terrific stuff! 4. THE ENTERPRISE INCIDENT! WOW! Terrific episode! The writers and directors start the episode by fooling us all! We are all duped for the first 1/3 of the episode just like all the characters! The reveal amidst the strain and stress of the plot is VERY satisfying! The episode also addresses a love sequence of aliens...which is more awkward than it is interesting. HOWEVER, this scene DOES open a possible explanation later--in the motion pictures--where Lt. Saavik may have come from!!! Here's the REAL trippy part **SPOILER POSSIBLY!!** If Saavik is the offspring of Spock and the female Romulan Commander, the she....Saavik...grows up to help on the expedition of the Genesis Planet...where Spock is regenerating with the planet. During the regeneration, Saavik "comforts" the aging Spock who goes thru Pon Far (the need to mate). That would mean, that "young Spock" has sex with his own half-romulan daughter via a temporal paradox. Take about 4 years to digest that! UGH> 5. AMOK TIME. No need to really address why this is the best. I mean, the musical score alone! However, a Vulcan Love story??? How can you beat that? Celia Lovsky as T'Pau!!! BRILLIANT! The entire guest cast were perfectly matched for the episode. Best friends fighting "dis match is to deh dead, Kurrk." Can't you STILL hear her uttering that line?!! And finally, Spock strangling his captain and best friend....it was gut-wrenching! The episode had everything from interesting comparisons in biology, to brilliant tactics in logic by a sly woman! And the writing!! "Stonn, she is yours. After a time, you may find that having is not so pleasing a thing after all as wanting. It is not logical, but it is often true." I mean....has there EVER been a galactic BURN as harsh as that one?? There you have it folks, MY top 5 Original Trek episodes and reasons why.

I like... Voyager Next Generation Deep Space Nine Original series Enterprise Discovery Havent got to watch Picard enough to rank it, but Id put it near the top from what Ive seen so far.

[@katef136]

Voyager is my favorite and probably the one I’ve rewatched the most, followed by Next Generation. I didn’t love the first season of Discovery, but thought the second season was much better. I would definitely watch a Pike spin-off.

11) Discovery (It's the biggest piece of dogshit that I've ever seen) 10) The Animated Series (Weird) 9) Prodigy (Surprisingly decent) 8) Lower Decks (Very surprisingly decent) 7) Strange New Worlds (Great) 6) Picard (really only this high up because of the amazing third season, first two were unwatchable but I can't ignore the third) 5) Voyager (The one Star Trek that should've had more overarching story) 4) Enterprise (Fuck you, Enterprise kicks ass) 3) The Next Generation (Woooo yeah baby) 2) Deep Space Nine (It was perfect, down to the last minute detail) 1) The Original Series (THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT!

[@josephfarkas1741]

My list: #1: DS9 (best character development and story arcs) #2: TNG (Classic star Trek) #3: VOY (Really a good show about exploring the galaxy, it had a lot of variety from funny episodes to weird crazy aliens to the Borg and time travel. Deserves more love) #4: ENT (2 last seasons were much better and could have been a good show if not for the beginning) #5: PIC (It was not really "Star Trek" style but it was still a good series nonetheless) #6: Discovery (read below) Didn't include TOS since I haven't watched and don't want to make an opinion. I haven't finished TNG or watched much discovery but I watched enough to know 😂.

"Undoubtably" is not a word. It's "undoubtedly". And you got so much wrong about Enterprise I'm not even watching the rest. Riker wasn't making up the entire series - just the finale. Which no fans of Enterprise actually like - they did a horrible job with the ending.

The Discovery review portion feels like a paid ad. Whether you like the show or not, there was no negative or any reason why it wasn't number 1. More negative was said about TNG, the number 1 show on the list. If this is sponsored content please let us know. Also no mention of Riker's beard. For shame.

[@adrastoso9727]

TNG is the best of the star treks by far! There is just something about it that makes it believable! Voyager was a really good series too, with characters like captain Jane and 7 of 9! Plus traveling to the other side of the galaxy and struggling to get back. Q was a big part of it and the Borg pissing off the wrong species that almost wiped them out was extremely compelling. I enjoyed watching the Borg meet its match! With that said, voyager should be number 3!

@@andrewwebb7584 I can relate. For me it was the star wars prequels. Not great movies in any sense of the word but I do have a soft spot for them.

Discovery is garbage and by far the worse ‘Trek’ series ever since its not remotely Star Trek. To have it listed as better than Voyager shows a lack of understanding of the franchise.

Used to be Voyager was the worst of rhe franchise, worse then Enterprise and TAS.... then came the JJ Treks (which incluse the 2 new series and short). Worst writing and characters. Get a room, 5 illiterate people who have never watched Star Trek, 10 hits of blotter acid and an oz of weed. Record their conversation, that would make better scripts than what is being put out now.

I hope some people who watched this video and read the comments agree with me on this statement. In my humble opinion it feels like the person who made this list has never watched Star Trek: Discovery and only is repeating what CBS has said about the show in press releases. There is absolutely no way this show can’t be the worst one on this list. Don’t get me wrong I watch every episode and not all of the episodes are terrible but they are all a little more miss then hit a majority of the time. For every Bullseye like Captain Pike we are reminded of the absolute volcanic disaster that are STD Klingons, especially there good awful, slow, drawn out Klingon speaking. I don’t hate the show but it’s sure hard to watch the episodes or even looking forward to watching them all the time. I just wish it was more Seth Trek like, as in Seth McFarland’s The Orville. If that show was considered part of this list, it would easily be at #2 on my list with of course Next Generation head and shoulders above all others in the 1st spot.

Voyager it's hands-down the best Star Trek series to date. Janeway is the best captain ( regardless of what you think ) she's a total badass. The series was as dark as anything in gene roddenberry's imagination could have been. And they introduce some of the best characters ( 7-9 ) and the best races ( the herogin and species 1blla blaa ). Enterprise was far too soft and cuddly and the original series is great but it's so old. All other Star Trek series were just nonsense. I have big hopes for "Picard" but I am holding my breath.
