I want to get into the Star Trek universe but dont know where to start. I have previously seen first three seasons of Disocvery and first season of picard. Picard was cool but disocvery didnt quite track, a little boring and not adventure focused enough. However loving lower decks now (just started season 4) and want to get into the more canon stuff.

I have access to TNG, DS9, Voyager, Enterprise and SNW. TOS i could probanly get access to if i want, but gotta admit that is not very enticing.

So where to start? TNG?

If it helps (and i dont get shunned for this), i am a stargate guy and love especially sg-1 and the adventure of the week format and the character ensemble

    Voyager’s got that family feel with the cast that you just enjoy being around.

    TNG is best to start after season 1. Not saying season one is bad, but it might be harder to get into for a new comer.

    Enterprise is good is you like your uniforms tight.

    The original series is great to get a lot of the origin information. I guess it’s hard for new comers, but I grew up with it, so has a special accepting place in my heart.

    Deep Space 9 is my personal favorite for political sci-fi. However, there is the occasional whatever episode. This is best to watch is order all the way through.

    I still think that lower decks and strange new worlds can not be fully enjoyed without some other older trek shown under your belt, but it’s only a few episodes so you can finish them both quickly.

    I abandoned Discovery after season 2 or 3 (I forget) I hear it got ok later on, but idk.

    Picard, just watch season 3. I watched the others and then season 3 came out. I forgot about the others.
