I hear many conflicting opinions on which series that the fanbase generally likes the best, so I decided to make a poll and see for myself.
Your father was captain of a starship for twelve minutes. He saved 800 lives, including your mother's, and yours.
I dare you to do better.

It will be interesting to see how many votes it gets.
Not looking too good for it so far lol

TOS comes in third, then Voyager, and Enterprise a distant last for general failure.
True. I also enjoyed the ENT characters, sans Archer.

DS9 had some of the best episodes ever, combined with the best character development, acting, and unfolding storyline.
VOY's story concept was great, but way over the top, unrealistic & unreasonable (even for a Sci-Fi), episodes being much too fast paced trying to account for too much in too little time, and overall didn't seem mature enough as compared to other series.
ENT was surprisingly good overall, a big improvement over all of VOY's many faults, but very sad that it was cancelled short. Otherwise, it's still eclipsed by DS9 & TNG still in my opinion.
I support the Star Trek Battles channel.
DS9 with all that god-related stuff in the way, no thanks. As atheist person, i coudnt stand DS9 more than the fighting episodes and other spreaded ones. If you rip-off the last season (where all the "good fights" are) and some episodes here and there, DS9 is like "meh". Not to mention the crappy acting of some characters. And still, it is a good show, like every star trek show. Even ENterprise was a good show, even if some purists will never like it.
yeah I know it didnt really have a TV show but 2,3,4 were back to back like a series... so I can claim its one right?
Oh if we are talking the movies my vote goes to Galaxy Quest just because I can. It might not technically be a Star Trek movie but its star trek enough for me.

The link's to part 7, giving their top 100 (though it has 695 ranked) and the top 10 episodes.
10) TOS, S2, "Amok Time"
9) TNG, S6, "Chain of Command"
8) TNG, S3-4, "The Best of Both Worlds"
7) DS9, S5, "By Inferno's Light"
6) TOS, S1, "Arena"
5) TNG, S5, "Darmok"
4) TNG, S3, "Yesterday's Enterprise"
3) TOS, S2, "Mirror, Mirror"
2) TNG, S5, "The Inner Light"
1) TOS, S1, "The City on the Edge of Forever"
TOS: 4
TAS: 0
TNG: 5
DS9: 1
VOY: 0
ENT: 0
VOY shows up at #12 with S3-4's "Scorpion".
TAS shows up at #17 with S1's "Yesteryear".
ENT shows up at #36 with S4's "Kir'Shira".
In the top 100 they've got ranked though, there are...
TOS: 22
TAS: 5
TNG: 30
DS9: 21
VOY: 15
ENT: 7
Which would give us...
TNG > TOS > DS9 > VOY > ENT > TAS
...in just looking at the top 100.
What about the stinkers, though? Their bottom of the list? The 695 through 601, eh?
TOS: 3
TAS: 3
TNG: 16
DS9: 20
VOY: 44
ENT: 8
Which would give us...
VOY > DS9 > TNG > ENT > TOS = TAS
...wait, lower would be better, so it would be...
TOS = TAS > ENT > TNG > DS9 > VOY
...with VOY having the most stinkers - twice as many as DS9.
Course, that's only 94...should have been 95, but there was no #684.
Let's grab the next 6 to get to 100 though, yeah?
600) VOY
599) DS9
598) TNG
597) VOY
596) VOY
595) VOY
With no big surprise there, lol. Takes our numbers to...
TOS: 3
TAS: 3
TNG: 17
DS9: 21
VOY: 48
ENT: 8
With that, we can get into some percentages in the top 100 and bottom 100, right?
TOS: 22% Top / 3% Bottom
TAS: 5% Top / 3% Bottom
TNG: 30% Top / 17% Bottom
DS9: 21% Top / 21% Bottom
VOY: 15% Top / 48% Bottom
ENT: 7% Top / 8% Bottom
In going through to look at positive numbers and working an average, it would be a case of subtracting the bottom from 100% to get the percent that it wasn't the bottom...totally fake maths!...but still, dorking about then...
TOS: (22 + 97) / 2 = 59.5
TAS: (5 + 97) / 2 = 51.0
TNG: (30 + 83) / 2 = 56.5
DS9: (21 + 79) / 2 = 50.0
VOY: (15 + 52) / 2 = 33.5
ENT: (7 + 92) / 2 = 49.5
TOS > TNG > TAS > DS9 > ENT > VOY
...where it could be easy to see that 0.5 shifting and putting ENT in front of DS9, basically having those two as bad as one another - basically on par for badness...with VOY obviously being the stinkerfest that it is.
One could also likely point out some stuff going on with the TOS and TNG numbers, to get those closer...
Even TAS could probably drop down a bit....
Basically giving us...
TOS ~ TNG > TAS ~ DS9 ~ ENT > VOY

I dare you to do better.
One day I'll try DS9 again, the first season is so painfully bad I just can't get past it. Looks like it gets much better later on though. I enjoyed Enterprise, TOS, and Voyager.
There are several REALLY good episodes, but.... I think about half are dumb episodes.
I voted TAS because they had plots that TOS and TNG couldn't even THINK about trying to do. Mutating Kirk into a fish-man? In theory it could be done, but it'd have been stupidly expensive with the tech of the time, especially if you wanted him to be recognizable. and they'd have never even considered making a physical model of the Alien Pod Ship. Or Quetzalcoatl's temple.... or ship, or the Delta Triangle ship graveyard. Yes, TNG did ship graveyards.... BUT, TNG used primarily Federation wreckage. It didn't have cool looking alien ships never seen before(or since).
