Deep space 9 is good.

Purchased the complete series used on DVD many years ago.

The one where Iggy Pop appeared as the Vorta named Yelgrun.

I frequently quote "Why am I not surprised?" with his delivery when someone annoys me with more bad news.

I am a Janeway quoter myself.

"There's coffee in that nebula."

"Computer, delete the wife."

We have Paramount+ mostly for Star Trek honestly.

Same. Voyager is my comfort watch. Currently watching Deep Space 9 for the first time after my ex husband didn't think I would like it. I'm enjoying it quite a bit. Guess that's why he's my ex 

I also like the new Matlock with Kathy Bates and Ghosts.

DS9 is amazing. We love Ghosts too. I liked Matlock, partner didn't care for it, so we haven't watched any more of it (I don't usually watch stuff when the hubby isn't here).

The Doctor was always my favorite.

"Let's see...you rammed your ship through it, fired phasers at it and blew a hole in it with a photon torpedo. I'd say it's a pretty good chance that you did some fairly significant harm."

Then she muted him and he's on the screen still talking to himself.

Also up there, "Please state the nature of the..." *sees bodies all over the floor* "Don't bother."

Or to the EMH Mark 2 "Quit breathing down my neck!" and it replies that its breathing is only a simulation and the doctor says "So is my neck. Stop it anyway!"

I'm so lost with all the Star Trek references.  I have Paramount + primarily for Champions Leage and Europa league soccer (Up the Villa!).  I may check out Landman, but haven't actually watched any series on it yet.

I might be biased just because of when I grew up but 80s and 90s Trek was the best, and Enterprise (2000s) was okay, and got a lot better just before being canceled), most of the new Trek is complete trash. Starfleet Academy might be the one that kills Trek for another two decades by the time it finishes bombing.

They brought Robert Picardo back for this and he's doing what he can with the scripts they give him, but it's certainly no Voyager.

Discovery was so-so. Strange New Worlds is actually really good. I always said they should have kept Captain Pike after seeing the pilot episode for TOS. The actor was replaced with William Shatner (Captain Kirk) who I felt ruined an otherwise good main cast.

Shatner is such a ham that he made it impossible to take the show seriously, and it was already having issues just because they couldn't do effects well in the 60s other than explosives and rubber suits and bad makeup.

Now you know enough about Star Trek, I think, to decide where to start watching first.

The TOS movies were a lot better than the series with the exception of "The Motion Picture" where I fell asleep and couldn't be bothered to ever watch that again, but Wrath of Khan came out next and the movies from then on are worth watching. Although First Contact is certainly the best Trek movie.
