How many times have you watched each series?

I only have the films and TOS-R, so the only time I watch the others is stumbling across re-runs, so I don't know.
 
Besides the Animated Series, I watched each series and film at least twice or more: once when they come out on the live screen, and a second time when they came out on DVD.

However, I probably watched TOS at least 3-4 times, though.
I watched most of the episodes one time on the Sci Fi Channel . Then I watched them all on over again on the first, second, and third release of the DVDs (i.e. jewel case version, regular season set, and Remastered Version).
 
Now, I only have DS9 DVD sets, so if you're talking about sitting down with the DVDs, then my answers below are valid only for DS9.

TOS - uncountable. I've been watching since the premiere in 1966. I do also have a "ahem" copy of each episode on VHS, and have watched those tapes twice through.

TNG - I don't think I missed an ep in its original run and have probably seen all of the eps at least twice each.

DS9 - just twice. Once on the original run and once on my DVDs. Planning another go through soon.

VOY - just once. Wouldn't be able to stomach another go round.

ENT - Season 1 once, first 4 eps of season 2 once, a smattering here and there of S3 and S4. Do not care to ever see any of it ever again.

I forgot - I do have TAS on DVD. Saw this twice as well. Once on TV and then watching the DVDs. Some of them were kind of interesting and fun, but I don't think I'll watch them again anytime soon. I didn't really care for it. I bought it for the novelty (and it was pretty cheap!).

You should give season 3 of ENT another shot I really enjoyed it.
 
TOS: 3
TAS: 0
TNG: 2
DS9: 2
VOY: 1
ENT: 0.5

I've never sat down and watched an entire series that was being rerun on SYFY or SPIKE, so I don't include individual episodes from those rebroadcasts. I didn't even see TOS-Remastered in its entirety in syndication...
 
TOS - Lost count over the years, must be in the tens, and I'll keep watching it till I die, and maybe beyond, depending on what kind of entertainment they have in the afterlife...

TNG - Not too far behind, but again, lost count. Not too bothered about watching this again

DS9 - 4 or 5 times. And I will watch this again, it's up there with TOS in my estimation.

VOY - 3 times, there won't be a fourth unless I live into my second century and get really bored.

ENT - Once was enough.

TAS - Saw an episode of this once. Have no interest in watching the rest. I prefer the novelisation of the episodes to the episodes themselves.
 
Series that I like to watch random episodes from the most:

1. Deep Space Nine
2. Voyager
3. Enterprise (Ironically)



Side Note:

TOS and TNG have to be watched in their entirety for me to get into them. Oh, and I either watched TAS about half way thru or the entire thing (I am not sure). As for the TOS films: I watch them every once in a great great while. As for the TNG films: Besides First Contact, twice each was enough for me.

It's hard to say how many times I've watched each series in its entirety. I watched a lot of Trek via random repeats over the years, bits and pieces at a time, and not always in chronological order. I've only seen a handful of TOS episodes that way.

When I became a fan of Trek, it was at the beginning of TNG's 5th season so I started watching Trek first-run at this point. I had to catch up on seasons 1-4 via repeats. I watched a lot of TNG repeats over the years, and it wasn't until I bought the DVDs that I was able to re-watch the series straight through. I figure I've probably seen episodes like BoBW 20 times, but if I average it out, I've been probably seen TNG in its entirety about 10 or 12 times.

DS9 I watched in its entirety during its original run. Didn't see a lot of reruns of DS9 so I didn't truly get to re-explore the series until the DVD release. So I've probably only seen DS9 in its entirety about three times. I'm currently re-watching it now.

VOY I also watched in its entirety during its original run. I've seen some random repeats since then, and I own seasons 4 and 6 on DVD, but I really haven't seen the entire show more than twice.

ENT, I think I still haven't seen every episode. I became so disappointed with the franchise during ENT's second season and stopped watching. I missed most of ENT seasons 2-3 and only caught most (but not all) of the episodes in repeats.

Yupyup.

There is Star Trek. (what many call TOS)

Then there is a quantum leap down to all other Trek. I like it fine. But TNG once, DS9 twice, VOY once, ENT .2.
 
TOS - ?
TNG - 2
DS9 - 2
VOY - 1
ENT - 3

I watched everything including TAS and all movies during the last 6 months. During that time VOY was the only series that had a couple new episodes for me.
 
TOS: Not sure. I watched it quite a bit on TV as a kid in the 60's and 70's. The last time I saw the entire series was sometime in the mid 80's. It's high on my list of things to watch. I do not yet have it on DVD.

TNG: Unknown. I watched the entire original run, and myself and some friends would record them and re-watch them over and over. I've had the DVD's for a few years, and I know I've run though them at least 4 times.

DS9: Did not watch the original run. I've had the DVD's for a couple of years, and I've been through them twice so far.

Voyager: Did not watch the original run. I got the DVD's about 3 years ago. I've been through them 3 times so far.

Enterprise: Did not watch the original run. I've seen the entire series twice. So far I only own season 3 (I've watched it 4 times), but the rest of the series is at the top of my list of things to purchase once I'm back working again.
