Is Voyager Your Favorite Trek Series?

I came to Trek late, once all the series were already off the air. My intro into it was The Next Generation, and I loved it so much I watched it 3 times in a row until my husband finally suggested we watch the other series (not done with ENT yet). I truly love them all, but I find Voyager seems to have a special place in my heart.

What about you?
 
Absolutely. I just like the characters more. I have a feeling that Voyager's stock is only going to go up as people rewatch all these shows.
When I added these shows to my Netflix, I did not expect to be so into Voyager but it won me over really fast. I don't really like TOS much anymore. TNG has some good episodes but the characters can be pretty stuffy. I stuck up for Enterprise when it was on the air, but now I think it was just a half-hearted attempt at a reboot.
Anyway, I'm only partway through season 2 on my viewing but based on this, Voyager really won me over.
 
I like TNG & VOY equally...at times VOY does squeak past TNG...like S4-S7. :D

[edit] TNG/VOY, TOS, ENT & DS9
 
It's slowly becoming my favorite Trek.

But then I've only seen TNG besides what I have of Voyager.
 
I really like VOY, but it just had too many flaws, and a few too many unwatchable episodes. I'd say its second (TNG and DS9 are tied for 1st).

Voyager's good episodes were great, and I'd say there were a lot of Great and ok episodes. But, its bad episodes (which I think were a minority, but it did have a few more than DS9, TNG, or TOS) were the worst of the series. Someone to Watch Over Me being my least favorite. Still, I loved the ship, crew, and a good 80% of the series.
 
DS9, VOY, ENT, TNG, TOS

Voyager is really good, but no star trek series (or any other science fiction show) has ever come close to DS9.
 
I love them all but Voyager is my favorite. I'm going back through it now and am in season 5, it's just great, the feeling of family here I never get tired of.
As for DS9, it was the last series I viewed and felt I had to view it because everyone said it was so good. It's okay, it's trek, but I never connected with Sisko as captain, the actor is just too wooden. Loved Kira, she should have been captain.

TOS and Voy tie for first. then TNG, Ent and DS9

I think DS9 had a lot to contend with. Being the first Trek show to be on the air while its predecessor was still making new episodes and dealing with the Babylon 5 comparisons. I kind of tuned out when it became about the Dominion war. It looked like they were trying real hard to amp up the action but I wasn't that invested in the characters myself.
But each successive series got more criticism from some people.
I feel kind of bad for Enterprise because even though it was far from perfect, it was like some people really wanted it to fail.
 
My list goes like this:

1. TNG and DS9
2. VOY
3. TOS and ENT

That is not to say that any of these are really bad because they are all my favorite shows over most other shows on TV.
 
I have never been a huge fan of Voyager and I personally grew up on DS9 so for me that will always be my fav :) but to put the shows in order I would say DS9, TNG, Enterprise, TOS (not really my generation and never took to it like other fans, some might say I am not a Star Trek fan at all for not putting TOS at top lol but owell ) and then I would put Voyager last (sorry to those voyager fans)
 
Yes. But I think DS9 is the best overall series for writing, ensemble acting and creativity.
 
^Would have to agree if we are viewing the series as a whole, that isn't to say all the series didn't have they good and bad moments. for me DSN was consistent with good or above episodes.
 
Voyager isn't necessarily my favorite series, but it is a series I find myself revisiting more than the others, if that makes sense. Did enjoy it and probably enjoy it more now than I did before. In ranking the series though:

DS9/TNG (Tied)
VOY
Star Trek
Enterprise
