Voyager.

TNG, and even more so DS9, make the downgrade in writing intolerable. I have willed myself through 1.5 seasons, and I can’t will it all the way to season 5 where it’s “great” but still less than DS9.

As someone who made it all the way to the final season before dropping the show when they started pushing the Seven, Chakotay, Doctor love triangle, I can say that you didn't miss too much.

While there's the occasional good episode, I found the quality of the show to have only improved marginally over the seasons.

Having watched through DS9 first, it was clear that Voyager had the B team of writers.
