The Best Star Trek Series of the Modern Era (and the Worst)

Author : Adam Mar 18,2025

Star Trek's enduring legacy spans decades, allowing us to categorize its output into distinct eras: the original series of the late 1960s, the classic films featuring the original cast, the Rick Berman era (encompassing The Next Generation through Enterprise), and finally, the current Paramount+ era, beginning with Discovery in 2017. This piece focuses on the latter, examining the diverse range of shows and films released since then.

In less than eight years, this modern era has yielded five new live-action series, two animated series, and a collection of short films ("Short Treks"). This variety—from hard sci-fi to comedy, animation, feature-length films, and short-form content—makes direct comparison challenging. Furthermore, series quality can fluctuate across seasons. Our ranking considers each series' entire run, not just its peak.

So, let's boldly go where no ranking has gone before!
