If I rated Star trek: The Next generation 10/10, then I have to give this a 9/10. But it doesn't change the fact that this is also one of the greatest creations ever. I can watch this whole show through without skipping an episode. Though some of the Chakotay episodes are a bit tough to watch. Every Star Trek series has a rough first one or two seasons. But trust me if the first few episodes turned you off, it only gets better from there.
