Alright, your propaganda here over the past months has worked. I want to get into Star Trek. Where do I start? Can I take an abbreviated tour? Or do I need to go to TOS?

I recommend starting with Next Generation, or the original series.

After that, it’s a jumping point to any of the other series you want to try, and any of the movies. NextGen season one is a bit clunky, but it gets much better from season two onward.

Be forewarned that:

Even numbered Star Trek movies are much better than odds.
Not everyone likes Star Trek Discovery as its tone is completely different than most of the other shows.
Season two of Picard is a stinker. Skip it.
Original series has some cheesy episodes, but you can learn to love them in the same way that people love old Doctor who episodes.
