I can not decide between TOS, TNG, and DS9. :hmm:

Deep Space Nine comes in second.  Lots of fluff in the series (it took nine seasons to tell about half the story B5 told in five seasons), but it still told a story and had enough serious and moving episodes that the fact that it also had the monumentally suckass character "Q" appear a few times didn't much taint it.
It had seven seasons not nine.
Q only appeared in one episode.

Yeah, but wasn't his daughter with him, that counts as Q X2.

Always preferred STNG to DS9 myself.

I like TNG....so, odds are you like one of the others better.  :lol:

No, but Vash (Picard's former love interest) did appear in the episode.

I don't think we're nearly as opposed on everything as all that. :hug:

I had to say Babylon 5.  But it's a close call, being an older show.

I'm watching reruns of Stargate Atlantis, and I love this show.

Battlestar Galactica was very good for 2.25 years.

I did like DS9 once it's picked up the pace.

I wonder if anyone voted for Terranova yet...


@Grumbler:
Q appeared more than one time in Voyager, almost as often as in TNG, maybe that's your confusion.

No, because it sucks.

Stargate Atlantis > SG-1. Agree or disagree?

Yes, Carter was hot...but what else did it have. I got sick of those Egyptian God dudes early on...and the Ori were not much better. Atlantis was more focussed and the Canadian doctor was a great character. The wraith were nasty.

Thought it ended too quick.

X Files.  Scared me.  I watched a couple of episodes recently and they were still good.

I never saw the films.

The first film is OK, but it can't really be watched by itself, it fits nicely I think between seasons 5 and 6.

The second movie was shit.
