Barring an unforseen early death on my part I'll have seen every Trek series from start to finish during its initial run except for TOS and TAS. I wasn't born until TAS was airing its final episodes.

Enterprise is the only series I watched start to finish first run before now. TOS and TAS are before I was born. I began watching Trek in TNG's final season and DS9's second. I stopped watching Voyager first run after the fourth season and didn't catch up on the remaining three until after the series ended.
I just can't complete Voyager. I try to do it once every year but stop after season 3
Season 4 is the best season! You can thank Seven of Nine for that. Then it begins to wear off after that. Plus I don't think Brannon Braga had the same grasp on Janeway as Jeri Taylor did. Season 7 is better than Seasons 5-6, but not as good as 4.
Which one did you like the most watching it as it came out? And did watching them again later change that impression?
Same here. Started in the middle of TNG S1 with daily episodes on a rerun, gave up on DS9 after the first few episodes. The VOY came out weekly, and the whole family was watching
ENT fragmented us - I watched them as they came out, others watched them later, or not all of them.
Want some recommendations to sample later seasons?
TNG was the most exciting for me overall though DS9 really took off for me starting with "Crossover" and "The Jem'Hadar" in Season 2. ENT would fall third followed by VOY bringing up the rear.
Not really. Over the years Voyager has been rerun on commercial TV that many times I managed to cover the episodes I missed after season 3. I did get a boxset of the whole series last year as a xmas gift but even with that I just can't binge it.
No I've seem nearly all of it but that boxset gets taken out every now and then, but unlike other shows I just can't binge it and would rather watch TNG or Enterprise
I watched DS9 and VGR from start to finish during their original runs, though I missed a couple of episodes of VGR along the way when they'd do that wonky thing during the spring of popping in the occasional new episode surrounded by weeks of reruns. TNG I was there for the start and finish, but had a couple of substantial interruptions of regular viewing. ENT I bailed on for most of Season 3.
Enterprise is the one series I love, nearly all of it in fact but season 1 is rough.. I actually loved season 3 a lot.
For me Season 2 is the worst overall. It has some real gems but the stinkers are among THE worst of the series.
Damage is the one episode that gives me chills in parts.
Kate Mulgrew actually felt Braga was the writer who had the best grasp on Janeway.
Personally, I think Braga just had a problem writing authority figures in general. On Enterprise you can see he had Archer making some of the same mistakes Janeway made throughout Voyager.
Ditto. I started watching TNG in, I think, late S4 and had to catch up via syndication. DS9's timeslot kept getting jerked around, so I lost track at around S3/S4 and caught up years later. TOS and TAS via syndication. VOY and ENT just never did much for me, so I never finished them.
Yes, this! A thousand times this!
That's cool! I look forward to seeing it!
I saw all episodes of TAS, TNG, and DS9 first run (though I saw TAS when I was really young and don't remember most of it). I stopped watching VOY with That Episode and I think I stopped watching ENT in season 2. I've seen all the new shows now since their first episodes and plan to continue as long as I'm around. At some point, I'll watch all of VOY and ENT.
Thanks! It's actually going to be my third film. We're still in pre-production and it'll take a while to shoot once we start production (we'll only be able to shoot on weekends since we have to work around our day jobs), then there's editing, but once it's available to the public, could be a few years, I'll give you a head's up.
Before anyone asks: I can provide private links to my first two films upon request over PM, but I'll reserve judgment on who I share them with. And I that's the last I'll talk about it here. Back to Picard!
