(26,839 posts)I like TOS (The Original Series), TNG (The Next Generation), Voyager, DS9 (Deep Space 9) and one of the more recent ones, Strange New Worlds. Haven't watched any of the animated ones.
Never could get into the prequel, Enterprise, with Scott Bakula, despite repeated tries.
In Strange New Worlds, Ethan Peck, grandson of Gregory Peck, portrays Spock, and does so in a most satisfying manner. Here is a link to an interview with him in which he discusses how seriously he takes this role, and how he feels portraying Spock made him want to be a better person.

My favorite Trek movie is the 4th one The Voyage Home, with the whales. "Admiral, there be whales here!"
In the late 1970s, I went to 2 Star Trek conventions, and enjoyed both enormously. Gene Roddenberry was the keynote speaker at one of them, and I also got my picture taken with Jimmy Doohan/Scotty and Walter Keonig (Chekov).
Several years ago, my husband and I went to a talk by Leonard Nimoy in a small theater in Crystal Lake, IL. Every seat was filled.
