Just started rewatching DS9 on netflix.

Did start to watch discovery but couldn't get into it

TNG but only when Wessssley has fucked off. The Borg episodes in particular. The original series is a bit too camp for me but the one with Joan Collins in really stands out as being one of the best ever episodes.

Always Voyager. Janeway is my hero.

IloveJudgeJudy · 06/12/2018 17:33

All you who preferred DS9 - what? Babylon 5 was much better! Can't stand Sisco. I grew up with TOS and still like it, but I have to say Voyager and especially Janeway just pip that now. DS2 is also an ST fan and has TNG, Voyager and Enterprise boxsets. I've only seen a few Enterprise episodes. The singing title music is pretty off putting. I realise I need to give it a chance.

They all had their different tone, DS9 was quite a lot more darker and violent then TNG. DS9 had stronger season long story arcs whereas TNG was more about single episode episode adventures. Enjoyed the concept of Voyager although the pacing was a bit slow early on the later series ramped up with the Borg storylines.

Both Neelix and Wesley Crusher need to be used as Klingon target practice.

You named your son Deep Space 2!

Respect!

IloveJudgeJudy · 06/12/2018 17:39

Lol 😂

JamieVardysHavingAParty · 06/12/2018 17:40

I like Wesley!

Leave him alone and shoot Neelix twice as much to compensate!

driggle · 06/12/2018 17:40

Next Gen is my fav.

MartaHallard · 06/12/2018 17:42

I grew up with the original series in the '60s, so will always have special affection for that.
Liked TNG, but got a bit tired of the Klingon politics.
Loved Voyager until it became the Seven of Nine show.
Watched DS9 but didn't really get into it.
Didn't like Enterprise, think Scott Bakula was miscast.
Haven't seen the latest.

PanGalaticGargleBlaster · 06/12/2018 17:45

I like Wesley

Nooooooo, he is too smug and precocious. Surprised Picard did not shove a hundred tribbles up his arse.

underneaththeash · 06/12/2018 17:53

Voyager my favourite by far. DS9 only had one decent episode (Dax/symbote)

CollapsedGingerbreadHouse · 06/12/2018 18:03

Oh God, I used to have a huge crush (pardon the pun) on Wesley!! I was an I impressionable preteen though, so please excuse me. Of course now I think he's an insufferbaly precocious and irritating little tit.

TNG is the best though, and Picard is the best captain, closely followed by Janeway. Kirk just used to shag or shoot depending on the nature of the alien lifeform!

JamieVardysHavingAParty · 06/12/2018 18:12

I would've had a crush on Wesley if I'd watched it at the right age, and these days I think he's cute.

He has a lot to cope with, and I don't think he's given enough credit for it.

Marcipex · 06/12/2018 18:13

TOS, with DS9 second.

Sethis · 06/12/2018 19:00

DS9

Name another major TV show where one of the good guys is an unapologetic terrorist.

Never been punched so hard in the feels as "Far beyond the Stars" or indeed many others.

Jadzia was my crush for like 4 years. I was desolate when they replaced her with fucking Ezri.

The most edgy, close-to-reality series of Star Trek ever made. War vets with PTSD and amputated limbs? We got you. Mental illness? We got you. Racism? We got you. So good.

Quarky · 06/12/2018 19:08

I've watched them all and I have liked them all. Voyager was probably my least favourite but still enjoyed watching them.

Quarky · 06/12/2018 19:09

You can probably tell from my nickname that I like DS9

ginghambox · 06/12/2018 19:10

In this order

Original
Voyager
DS9
Enterprise
TNG.

Mightywease · 06/12/2018 19:11

DS9 for me. I'm still in love with Dr. Bashir!

FlosCampi · 06/12/2018 19:18

Ds9 for Gul Dukat, a somehow v attractive baddy. TNG for Data and Picard. Discovery for Captain Lorca, but disappointed by his story arc.

sideorderofchips · 06/12/2018 19:37

Ds9. I wanted to be Jadzia Dax so badly

Followed by voyager

Mrspotter12 · 06/12/2018 19:40

Voyager and the really really new one on Netflix!!!

MrsFionaCharming · 06/12/2018 19:42

Voyager was my first love, but got into DS-9 a couple of years ago and have watched it through 3 times since!

Of all the casts, the DS-9 actors are the nicest as well. Nicole De Boer is the sweetest person I’ve ever met.

BroomstickOfLove · 06/12/2018 19:43

DS9. I loved all the politics and religion. And Gul Dukat was such a great character.

Shizzy · 06/12/2018 19:59

DS9 is my all time favourite, followed by TNG. Discovery is quite good too so looking forward to season 2. I named my dog after a DS9 character, I'm that sad!
