    Isn’t that Voyager though? I was just talking about TNG. I haven’t made it that far in Voyager yet. I’m currently watching it. So far I’m not impressed, but I’m going to wait until at least season 3 to pass judgement since even TNG and DS9 don’t really pick up until later seasons.

      Seasons 4 & 5 of Voyager are ita strongest. When it was still airing and in the final season I got my first job and bought a bunch of vhs tapes to record the newest season as it aired, and I started ‘best of’ tapes from reruns. They were dominated by those two seasons.

              I think the next logical choice after those is Voyager whether it’s better or not, because it revisits ideas and characters from those two shows. I personally put TOS above them all, but that’s the Star Trek closest to my heart since it’s the one I was watching from about 2 years old on.

                  I think they were joking. Do NOT watch Lower Decks until you’ve watched a lot of other Star Trek because it’s got endless references to other shows, especially their plot holes, and you won’t get any of it.

                    I’ve seen all of TOS, all of DS9, and all of TNG 2 or 3 times, plus all of the movies at least once. Oh, and 5 episodes of SNW, all of Picard, and 3/4 of the first season of Voyager. Amazingly that still leaves a lot of ground to cover.

          I absolutely love voyager… a few episode are my all time favorite Star Trek episodes. Just force yourself to watch the whole thing, it does get better after season 3 and some of the best episodes are in the last season.

          Yes there are some bad episodes, especially in the beginning, but imo the good far outweighs the bad.

        There is an awful TNG episode where the whole crew devolves into lizards and other animals. I just remembered that right now, but I don’t remember what it’s called.

      Uh, Voyager Had a very ruff start and is objectively garbage until the end of season 3. After that it has a few cool episodes. But then it also makes the Borg boring by overusing them.

        It can’t be worse than Picard. Every time they wanted some hand wavey magic they’d just go “Borg tech!” rather than try to explain it. It was so bad by the end of the series that I didn’t even want to watch it anymore, despite having my favorite cast and beautiful new SFX.
