Welcome to a Star Trek community where you’re free to chat and share your opinions about all things Trek!

I want to have a place where fans can come to praise, discuss, and even criticise things in the Star Trek franchise. No show or movie is perfect, and I don't believe people should be silenced for having a dissenting opinion. That being said, there are still a few rules.

Be Nice - No personal attacks. You can disagree with someone's opinion, but it needs to stop there.

No Slurs - This is applicable to ethnicity, religion, gender, or anything else.

No Adult Content - Keep it family friendly.

No Spamming or Trolling - Consistently spamming comments or trolling is just not needed.

Please keep topics Trek related or Trek adjacent for the most part, and have fun!

As this is a new community I thought it would be fun to get to know each other by sharing our most and least favourite series. (We’ll do the films another time)

Obviously I’ll start.

  1. Deep Space Nine
  2. Voyager
  3. The Next Generation
  4. Enterprise
  5. Picard Season 3
  6. The Original Series
  7. Lower Decks
  8. Strange New Worlds
  9. Prodigy
  10. The Animated Series
  11. Discovery
  12. Picard Seasons 1 & 2

I know I’m kind of cheating by splitting Picard up but season 3 is so different and so far removed from the truly awful first two seasons it deserves its own slot. I do believe Picard has the single worst season in all of Star Trek with season 1 and the single best season in the franchise with season 3.

TNG’s 3rd and 4th seasons come close but I think Picards 3rd season just tops them. That’s a massive credit to Terry Matalas to turn the show around from some of the worst in the franchise to some of the best.

Here’s hoping we get Star Trek Legacy but given Paramounts current financial situation it seems unlikely.

Also Ben Sisko is the GOAT of Starfleet Captains.

What order would you put the series in?

  1. DS9
  2. TNG
  3. VOY
  4. SNW
  5. Lower Decks
  6. ENT
  7. Prod
  8. Picard (only because season 3 brings up up.
  9. TAS
  10. TOS
  11. Disc

I put Picard together and bumped it up a notch, but I’d only ever consider rewatching season 3.

Discovery, never really got good, but I’m hoping the next season is better.

TOS has a lot of bad episodes, it there are still some I like to watch.

Disco definitely started finding it's feet in Season 3, and I thought 4 was better too. I think season 5 will be truly great. It's a shame it didn't get as much of a chance as the other Star Trek shows. TNG was pretty terrible before season 3 as well

It’s feels blasphemous to say it, but Trek was at its best once Roddenberry left the show.
