I was late to the party, so my initial watch order was all kinds of messed up. I went DIS -> LD -> VOY -> DS9 -> TNG -> VOY (again) -> ENT -> SNW. Sadly, have only seen bits and pieces of TOS (and only GIFs of TAS).
Definitely recommend watching the TNG era in order: TNG, DS9, VOY, ENT and then doubling back to watch Lower Decks again (because why not lol). I also recommend watching Prodigy after VOY since it's basically VOY season 8/9. SNW is a spinoff from DIS, so I'd watch at least seasons 1-2 of DIS before SNW.
Prodigy is a kid's show, but please don't let that turn you away. It's pretty great.
Ok, that was kindof what i had in mind so good to see that suggested. I imagine i can get a lot of addtional fun it of LD after having seen everything else. But then TNG-era before or after SNW?
Never heard of prodigy, ill check that out as well!
For SNW, I don't think it matters beyond preference. A few other comments suggest watching it before TNG, and that makes sense. Same for ENT, for that matter. I just lump it in with the TNG era since it's also by Berman/Bragga.
