Lexi and Ben boldly go where no podcast has gone before: STAR TREK! We rank the aired and airing TV series from BEST to WORST (or, you know, from our FAVOURITE FAVES to our slightly less FAVES). This episode is sure to be our most contentious to date! 

SHOW NOTES:

• Get checked out with Dr. Beverly Crusher's podcast: Gates McFadden Investigates
• We're not even a little embarrassed to say that Benjamin Ahr Harrison and Adam Pranica host the essential Star Trek podcasts: The Greatest Generation and The Greatest Discovery

For clarity's(!?) sake, here are Lexi and Ben's Star Trek show rankings as captured by Producer Jess:

Lexi's List 1

1. TNG
2. Voyager
3. DS9 (Ben peer pressure choice)
4. Picard (original choice)
5. TOS
6. Discovery
   NOT SEEN, but still ranked
7. Lower Decks (original ranking that then gets skipped)
8. think this got skipped?
   9 &10 Enterprise and Lower Decks tie (after discussion)
   The Original Animated Series doesn't get listed for Lexi because she hasn't seen it

Lexi's List 2 (recap)

1. TNG
2. Voyager
3. DS9 (Ben peer pressure choice)
4. Picard (original choice)
5. TOS
6. Discovery
   7-10 all falls under not seen/ranked, in no particular order Enterprise, Lower Decks, The Original Animated Series (and Short Treks, I guess?)

Ben's List 1

1. DS9
2. TNG
3. Voyager
4. TOS
5. Enterprise
6. Discovery
7. Picard
8. Lower Decks
9. think this also got skipped, or 8 is skip and 9 is Lower Decks, idk
10. Star Trek the Animated Series

Ben's List 2 (recap)

1. DS9
2. TNG
3. Voyager
4. TOS
5. Enterprise
6. Discovery
7. Picard
8. Lower Decks

10. Short Treks

Totally clear now, right?
