Switched to DS9. I've never watched straight through the series before.
DS9 >= TNG >> Voyager >= TOS >>> Enterprise
Was Enterprise the one with Scott Bakula in it? I actually liked that one.
It hands down had the best intro of any ST series ever.
Overall though it just didn't know what it wanted to be as a tv show. Had all the elements to be awesome but never put them all together in the right way.
If you cut that crap music it was a great intro.. but that music.. I wanted to die everytime I heard it!

Aw, I really liked it. Got me right in the feelings every time.

you ever watched Enterprise?
Started it, but it was never interesting enough to keep watching.

DS9? Maybe better than TOS, but can't compete with the others. It's so ridiculously cheesy.
TNG and Voyager are by far my favourites.
-
@Dashrender Enterprise intro music was something like a parody that those guys from Southpark would do. Except it was serious.
-
@scottalanmiller Wrong. DS9 is the best, by a long shot. Doesnt really get very good til Worf shows up, and then after the "Miracle in teh Wormhole" it really gets good.
-
But i do like TNG a lot and have seen it the most.
-
Weird,.. Was just dropped on a post from 5 days again when I came into this thread...
Ison is out of surgery, been in recovery and is now on the way home.... Whoot!

I'm trying to fight my way through it. But it feels like the writers mocking the universe. It's impossible to take it seriously

Got the remake of Cosmos on in the background.
glad they made it but nothing will ever beat original carl sagan to me
Truth, but you gotta love NDT and the fact that they redid this, possibly hoping that the younger generations would be better able to grasp the new version. But you are correct, Carl Sagan rules.
-
@RojoLoco I love NDT. For my birthday years ago now, my ex-girlfriends family purchased tickets to a planetarium where he recorded an entire presentation on dark matter and I got to see a 3D map of the observable universe. It was an amazing experience.
Carl Sagan will always be special to me though because my Grandfather and I would watch him when I was little and he really challenged me to think in a different way. A lot of nostalgia for me.

Chef's Table on Netflix is an amazing documentary series that follows the top chefs in the world...highly recommended!

I would also recommend you watch "Mind of a Chef". On Netflix (I think), but worth finding. 1st season is all David Chang, 2nd-3rd seasons split up between a few other chefs. When Tony Bourdain called Chang "one of the most divisive figures in cuisine", I knew I would like him.

huh I don't know which is more cheesy, Voyager or TOS... Though bringing the religion thing into DS9 was meh.

If anyone has any suggestions of what we should check out that aren't every Star Trek show made since the 1970s, that would be great. My interest in this thread goes far beyond y'all arguing TNG vs DS9, ffs.
I heard that at least a dozen non-Star Trek shows got made between the 1970s and now, but that could just be a rumor. If anyone has any insight, please post that instead of "Star Trek _______ is the best!!!!" Thanks, signed everyone who doesn't feel the need to debate which Star Trek/Star Wars/Whathefukever is considered best by internet nerds.

I think I agree with what you are saying - I hated it.. it wasn't epic at all, and words? really? Words? /sigh.

The first season is pretty bad - but then again, it's that way for all the series.

Well SG-1 was great! Babylon 5 was pretty good too (though I would love to see a remake of that show with modern tech.. they could just crush it!

Sure... but I heard that there were at least 3 non-scifi shows made in the last 4 decades... anyone know what those might be?
