OK so I've watched the two Abrams movies, wrath of Khan, bits of voyager season 1 and I'm currently on the 5th season of TNG using this method: https://medium.com/maxistentialism-blog/star-trek-the-next-generation-in-40-hours-c4a6762cbd3

What's the correct viewing order? what's good? What's bad?
>>
>>62809301
lel regular star trek is a boring as fuck shitfest.
Not even worth a single glance and betrays the sci fi genre by trying to use real world logic.
>>
>>62809301
the season 3 of enterprise is pretty good with all the xindi and nazi aliens stuff.
watch that.
Also ToS obviously
>>
>>62809301
Watch them in chronological order you autist, that way people won't have to stop and explain everything for you every time you go into a Star Trek thread from now on.
>>
>>62809343
Yeh i agree. I mostly like the episodes with battles and wars
>>
Watch the movies in literally any order you want, except keep in mind that Wrath of Khan, Search for Spock, and Voyage Home are meant to form a trilogy together.

As for the shows, I would suggest either Original Series or TNG as a starting point and then go from there.

Ultimately though, none of this fucking matters. Just watch some Star Trek.

>>62809414
yeh but i don't want to watch a bunch of old men wobbling in chairs wearing red, yellow and blue pyjamas
>>
There is none you dumb sack of shot, just get watching
>>
Also why do all the autists hate Abrams' movies? I thought they were epic.
>>
>>62809486
They are incapable of coming to terms with the fact that a sci fi drama would have been an absolute box office flop and got butthurt when it was made into a sci fi action instead.
>>
The abrams movies don't make any sense unless youve seen all of tos and the unification episodes, also the ones where picard absorbs spocks dads brain
>>
>>62809486
Enterprise used to be about exploring,meeting new alien species and some (interesting) political conflict.
with Abrams is all just the same
My invincible ship figths against the enterprise and for some reason no one can help and kirk and spock save the day.
is just boring.

>What's the correct viewing order?
TOS, and any movies starring the original cast
>what's good?
TOS
>What's bad?
everything else, unless the TOS characters have a cameo in it
>>

TNG
>"bad"

Nice meme
>>
>>62809486
Great movies for themselves imo but not really what star trek is.
Still better than 90% of the other star trek movies.
>>
>>62809301
Good strategy.

DS9 pretty much has to be viewed in order and mostly completely since it has a continuous plot. I'm sure there are some one off episodes you can skip, but I can't give you a list.

Trek fags will defend this

Can someone confirm if Voyager is shit tier? I heard there's some cool episodes with the borg.
Is Star Trek Enterprise shit tier also?

Watch it yourself, how the hell are we supposed to know what you'll like?

Because I don't wanna waste me time if it's shit senpai

>>62810683
Stop being so damn impressionable and lazy and form your own opinions you child.

I wouldn't trust these retards to be objective and recommend something I'd enjoy any farther than I could throw their morbidly obese bedridden asses.

>using a method to watch a show
Holy shit, why is it so hard to watch a television show? Just watch it from the beginning.
>>
>>62809301
Never, ever follow any of those stupid guides for watching a show, especially Star Trek. Even ones from here. Just watch a few from the original series and if it's not quite your thing go to TNG and just watch it in order. It's as simple as that.
>>
>>62810683
you know deep down that would be boring and a waste of your time, but your ocd makes you post in this thread. Just skip it bro
>>
>>62810425
>space battles on medium-budget 1980s TV show doesn't have abrams-tier special effects therefore it's bad
>footage that's obviously been edited to stabilize the camera and thereby undo the effect
whatever you say kid

Jesus fuck man. Just pick a series and watch them in order. Are you incapable of deciding for yourself what is good or bad?

You could watch the good episodes only such as Measure of a Man and Best of Both Worlds, and see some good stories. I guess it would be like how a lot of people's only exposure to the TOS characters is through the TOS movies. But you will never be a wizard if you go by abridged series, as you'll miss critical, character-building moments (building the character of both Trek characters and yourself for watching it) (pic related).

>People who don't watch all the episodes of a show
>People who watch them out of order

Why the fuck would you do that? It's clear you don't enjoy watching it so why bother?
