    Next Gen hands down.

    Liked some aspects of Voyager.

    DS9 was *kitten*, and Enterprise was the toilet the *kitten* was floating in.

    I love Next Gen but I grew up with Voyager... and as a young girl I loved seeing a strong female captain. Voyager's my fave!

    For the series, I think the original was the best, but I really had a lot of hope for "Enterprise". It was pretty solid at the start, but then ran off the rails.

    I'm sure I'll get smacked around for this, but I really like the reboot movies. Sorry.

    Loved Next Gen, DS9, and Voyager. I couldn't get into Enterprise. It just didn't feel like Star Trek to me.

    Also with you on this. I thought the films were great.

    I love them all. TOS and TNG are tied for my favorites, for various sentimental reasons. I enjoy Voyager and most of DS9. Hubby's favorite is Enterprise, but I'm meh about it.

    I like them as well, although Into Darkness I like mainly because of Benedict Cumberbatch.

    TNG, Voyager was good but was officially inspired by TNG, whatever that means, so TNG hand's down for me.

    TNG and DS9. Voyager had potential, but got too bogged down in formulaic pacing. The new movies are just big shiny plot holes! I'd love to see a new tv series taking place after the tng/ds9/voyager timeline though.

    I'm the black sheep of the Star Trek family - I love DS9!

    Into Darkness made me want to burn down the cinema.

    Next Gen ALLLLL the way. In fact, my fiancé and I watch one nearly every evening. I really did like the reboot movies as well. Zachary Quinto as Spock.... yes, please!

    i will not choose and you cannot make me.

    honestly, there are aspects about ALL of them that i've really enjoyed. even Enterprise - which had so much more potential then it was able to really explore - was a good show at the core. they just got lost in season 2 and couldn't find the path again, painted themselves into a corner and ended up cancelled on a sour note. and DS9, which was too far ahead of its time to really get into the issues of speciesism and their mirroring over to racism. if it were on today, it would be a grittier, realer show that could really make you think.

    i'm enjoying Abrams' reboot. i think that they're in-keeping enough with TOS, but for a modern audience. i don't regret seeing them on the big screen so far. and when TOS, Next Gen or Voyager are on, i end up stopping on the station for a bit.

    From Patrick Stewart to Gates McFadden to Wil Wheaton, it just doesn't get better than Next Generation.

    DS9. It was the first one I really watched because it was in syndication at the right time when I was the right age to really get into it. It gets a lot of extra nostalgia points from me for that. Also, Cisco punched Q--another good go-to argument.

    Nostalgia aside, TNG hands down.

    I'm watching all of Voyager on Netflix for the first time, and am finally starting to warm up to it. I used to think it was the worst Star Trek, but Janeway is a lot easier to get into after they quit the heavy handed "because I'm the Captain" stuff. When they just let her be a good Captain the stories are better.

    I think it starts getting good once they stop making her wear that crazy updo. I find it akin to how TNG gets better once Riker grows his beard. :laugh:

    DS9 was *kitten*

    ^^NOT this :angry:

    I grew up on TNG, came of age to DS9. Never saw much Voyager or any Enterprise. TOS has some nostalgic value, but the production (and some of the writing) of the era comes off as corny to me.

    :laugh: Okay, but Navygrrl gets credit for the Unifying Theory of Hairstyles. Eerily enough, I'm right where Janeway's hair changes and the episodes are getting significantly better.

    TNG.

    When DS9 was on, I had Babylon 5 on instead.

    I thought this was going to be a discussion about the ST movies, in which case: Wrath of Khan!

    In lesser hands the character of Khan could have been a laughing stock but Ricardo Montalban played it perfectly. I remember seeing the film when I was very small and being scared of the ear-creatures.

    I must go with The Original Series! Even though production and scripting are a bit corny by today's standards, it was a true original when westerns dominated television. Besides, without it no one would have gotten to enjoy TNG, DS9, Voyager, Enterprise or any of the movies.

    That being said TNG took Gene's concept further than TOS could and will always be a very close second for me.

    The one where Vader cuts off Lukes hand and reveals he's his dad. Didn't see that coming!!!

    get out of here. :angry:

    Agreed, agreed, and agreed. My mother is a dyed-in-the-tribble-fur TOS buff and she and I understand each others' perspectives well. it's a generational thing.
