So they've added all of Star Trek to Netflix UK

Including Voyager, DS9 and stuff. What should I watch first?- does watching the sub-series'require watching from the beginning (my only history with Trek is the JJVerse stuff) or could I watch say... Deep Space 9 before Series 1 or whatever?

I've heard DS9 is more a larger story than just planet of the week so I'm interested in watching that.

Partially because I'm interested as to why everyone despises JJverse stuff so much. I quite enjoyed Star Trek and... whatever the second one was called and I'm looking forward to Beyond but I'm also wanting to see the original stuff to see if it really is as superior as people say.

Though it was either this, Battlestar or Stargate.

I suggest watching the movies first starting with Wrath of Khan, espesialy since you started with the Abrams films.

The even numbered ones are the "good" ones exept for Nemesis. I also feel that the first movie Star Trek the Motion Picture is a good one, but its slow and know to bore most people out of there minds so thats why I recommend Wrath of Khan first.

Wrath of Khan is pretty tits.

Great, just the other day I was thinking of giving it a go.

I suggest skipping the nerd-fest and watching Stargate SG-1, most of the show, even though some actors leave at the end, they are replaced by Farscape actors lol, there's even a parody episode.
This show actually has comedy to keep you entertained, Richard Dean Anderson is the master of Sarcasm, it has decent drama and story. The other shows, SG Atlantis and SG Universe are lame, really. I would advise against watching them.

- So if you want a funny, compelling and awesome Sy-Fy show to watch, Stargate SG-1 is for you.

Trek > Gate = BSG (modern series)

All three are good though. For Trek:

TNG > DS9 = Voyager > TOS >>>> Enterprise

Star Trek is great.

Watch TNG first, it's the best. TOS is rather dated now, although it is alright.

DS9 after TNG (I was never a fan).

Skip Voyager and Enterprise.

Having marathoned TNG during Second year, I can reccomend it.

Once I get back from camping in 3 weeks I'm buying the boxset (need to see if they have those) to repay for me pirating them all.

TNG is good. The rest is shit. When most of your shit is shit, it's shit.

Alright I'll accept that. As long as you acknowledge that The Wrath of Khan Is good too.
