Spent 20 minutes trying to find a thread that fit what I wanted but everyone seems to be willing to watch all of Star Trek. I tried TOS and while it’s not bad I don’t want to watch every single episode of Star Trek to get into the show…

What’s the best order to watch the most universally enjoyed Star Trek series’ and movies? I really enjoyed Lower Decks as a fan of Final Space and Strange New World’s looks incredible. I want to start with the earlier series but not have to watch all of it!

    I don’t think there’s a “best” order.

    Even the shows that ran concurrently (TNG/DS9/VOY) had very few crossovers, so essentially you can jump right into any one of those without missing anything. Although personally I’d suggest watching TNG before DS9 because DS9 deconstructs some of the Star Trek that came before it, so it’s more impactful if you watch it in that order.
