Yes! You should def. watch TNG! That is the best of the ST shows! :D


Voyager and DS9 are also good, but TNG pwns them all!

TNG is the best - I could watch it all day long. When spike TV had their Star Trek marathon a while back, I never felt so glued to my TV. I cna't say that I like the current iteration of the show, but give me reruns and I'm a happy man :)

If you are going to start watching it, don't watch Enterprise, it is horrible, and According to Branna Brega and Rich Berman, Enterprise is not in the same "universe" as TNG, DS9, VOY or the original series.

So far they've screwed it up by meeting klingons, having transporters, phase pistols, they use torpedos(thou not photon thank god)

I could watch TNG all the time too. :)

I have 6 more episodes to watch, then I can say I've watched every single episode of TNG. I've watched pretty much every episode of Voyager too! :D

yeah prequels is always a bad idea

why cant they make a show that is based after TNG? man that new spaceship (the one with 3 tails, under riker) is badass

TNG and Voyager only.

DS9 is fvcking stupid. Bajorins this, bajorins that, blah blah blah. Quark is a fvcking idiot bastard a$$ face who needs to be shot. Odo looks like walking Gefilte Fish with skin cancer. Sisco has a corn cob up his butt. The doctor is a limp wristed ninny boy. The whole show is the worst to to ever happen to anyone or anything.

TNG is the best of the bunch. I was die hard TNG, DS9, and Voyager fan, but I always say TNG is the best. If you want to watch the movies... First Contact is my personal fav. Rule of thumb is watch any even numbered one (except for the last one!) and never, NEVER watch ST III: The Search for Spock.

btw - TNG has Levar Burton from Reading Rainbow... I mean c'mon, what else do you want?

TNG and DS9 were the only Star Trek series that I liked.

I wasn't a big fan of the original or any of the ones after DS9, and the movies put me to sleep.

They haven't screwed up much of anything actually. Picard himself stated Klingons were first encountered "centuries" ago and that first contact with them proved to be disastrous due to no prime directive being established. Transporters never really had any established date of being around, aside from Geordi's comment that there were "more than a cenutry of evidence" to prove transporters were not dangerous; it could be said that NX01's transporters will later prove to be a health hazard and as such they will be banned for quite some time thereafter. And only phaser technology is strictly banned from being introduced, as Worf stated there were no phasers during the 22nd century.

TNG and DS9 for sure. Voyager was OK. Enterprise sucks. Make sure you watch all of the orginial Star Trek and TNG movies.

It really is addictive. If you're a fan of Sci-fi, it's pretty much expected that you've seen them.

I suggest that you refrain if you ever want to have sex again (or for the first time).

yes. plan to watch them in order though, especially when watching DS9, or it can get confusing.
