TNG. I loveeee the cast of the original (Bones), but i find the "adventures" of TNG more enjoyable.

TNG.  There are a number of polls asking about Star Trek series that you might find of some interest:

Here is one of them.

Oh sorry i didn't mean to reopen a poll. I should have known this had allready been polled.
maybe this poll shuld be deleted by a Mod? I didn't realize so much Star Trek had allready taken place.It won't offend me at if it gets deleted.

Imo the original series had the better stories, TNG had the better character development.  I choose the original series.

Innovative and politically aware on a shoestring budget, I'll take the original though there were some real duds.

I have to go with both.  I grew up on classic reruns.  But TNG came out when I was in college, so I have fond memories of that one, too.  The first season had more than a few cheesy moments, but so did the old one.

I view The Original Series more like a comedy show,with action moments.Of course the very attractive women that appear in every episode is a really nice bonus!

TNG easily.

I enjoyed both......but I've always had a soft spot for the original cast and show even though the storytelling was more involved in TNG with more time to develop ongoing arcs.

The classic series by far my favourite, with all the characteristics flaws and limitations of that times...

Classic, especially William "Shakespeare" Shatner's overblown acting and the miniskirts!

Deep Space Nine.

DS9 was a great series.....and it had more depth than all the others regarding story and character development.
Approve

I voted for TNG. When TNG first came out, I thought, how could they bring back Star Trek with a whole new cast? I thought I wouldn't like it. Turns out TNG is my favorite Star Trek of them all!

BOTH! I love Star Trek; pretty much anything except some DS9 & Enterprise with their "love affairs" is awesome.

I think most of us could do without the 'love stories' in all the various Trek shows but imo DS9 had the most interesting ongoing arcs with the wormhole, the Dominion, Odo and the Changelings,  and the beings in the wormhole.

There was nothing quite like that in TNG , Voyager or Enterprise.

I vastly prefer the original series. You can't beat the Freudian id-ego-superego of McCoy, Kirk and Spock.

Voted for both which might be a cop out but I think the ensemble cast is stronger in the original but the stories and themes are deeper in TNG

Agreed Doc.  DS9 was really great.  And fans of DS9 should really make sure to check out Babylon 5.  Great story arcs and memborable characters...maybe even a little  better than DS9.  Provided you make it through the first season.  The first season of B5 was a bit rough but man did it they ever kick butt from season 2 onward.

Without a doubt I voted for the first original series Captain James T. Kirk (William Shatner) , love him, loved him in Boston Legal too. Plus he released a prog track too: From Cleopatra Records comes the Official Video for Ponder The Mystery from the Album of the same name with William Shatner and Billy Sherwood.

Babylon 5 was a great sci-fi series......depth of characters and plots. It also had a more 'realistic' and 'gritty' feel than many other sci-fi series. 
I think all the Trek shows are worth watching and of course the original will always be loved simply because it was the first and created the iconic characters but of the later ones DS9 had a much better storyline.
