    I’ve never watched Star Trek, apart from few episodes of Deep Space 9 (?) quarter century ago. Where should I start now if I’d like to get some understanding of the universe?

      I don’t really know but i started with and loved Voyager, i got recommended thats its a big more modern then next generation series.

      The events of Voyager and deep space 9 also happen at a same time so i planned to move to ds9 next.

          DS9 is waaaay better than voyager.

          That’s debatable. Both had their flaws, but I really preferred Voyager’s idea of “dang, it’s going to take us decades to get home and we’re in uncharted territory, so let’s explore the hell out of our way back” over DS9’s “were sitting at the galaxy’s newly discovered traffic junction and our new enemies look like anything, so our major conflict is that anybody could be a traitor and our utopia is turned upside down into a surveillance state”.

          I heard there where many people that did not like him but after Kes left i actually grew quite fond of him.

            I found him obnoxious, not to mention super abusive to kes. Also, weird choice having him babysit Naomi. “Hey, who should we leave alone with this young girl? How about the grown man who was dating a 2 year old when we met him?”

            But wait until you watch DS9, quark is the superior comedy relief character.
