OS was better but TNG was good too.

Favorite episode
OS: the mirror universe
TNG: the borg 2 part episode where the borg assimilated Picard.

Never really got much into any of the other ST shows; DS9, Voyager

My favorite ST movies: The Wrath of Kahn and the re-launch/new cast from last year

I like TNG better, probably because I grew up watching it, although I do enjoy and respect the OS.

Favorite OS episode is "Amok Time", the one where Kirk fights Spock.
One of my favorite TNG episodes is probably "Nth Degree" where Lt. Barclay gets super smart brain powers:

Barclay: Tie both consoles into the Enterprise main computer core utilizing neutral-scan interface.
Enterprise Computer: There is no such device on file.
Barclay: No problem. Here's how you build it...
What a bunch of geeks!

I have to go with TNG... better special effects thanks to technology advances.
Data was fascinating in superman kind of way.

and of course:
Tasha Yar


Deanna Troi


and Beverley Crusher was a hot milf!

It's hard to choose.. I love OS & TNG.. I think Voyager has good moments, and .. blah! Why do you have to make me choose?? I'll watch any of em!


It makes me sad they don't show any ST episodes on the weekend!
Monday can't come soon enough!
As far as TV goes TNG and DS9 were my favorite. TNG had all of the exploration and joy that we had always known Trek for, but the Dominion War arc for DS9 showed that dark and gritty could work in the Trek universe. I loved them both and couldn't choose between them. Both of those series had a tremendous amount of character building between the whole cast which I thought was lost in voyager and Enterprise.
Peach, I agree that Voyager has good moments.

Original series for me. Can't beat the interplay between Kirk, Spock, and McCoy. And they had real, serious SF writers pen many of their episodes.

Favorite TNG episodes:
Best of Both Worlds (1 and 2)
Darmok
(action and true sci-fi)

Hard to pick a favorite TOS one as I've seen them way too often.

The DS9 episode where they go in back in time to the Trouble with Tribbles episode was cool just from being able to seamlessly merge the old and the new effects-wise.

speaking of DS9, where is Qwuark?
