If streaming is an option for you, it's almost definitely the cheaper route. Deep Space Nine and Voyager, on the other hand, are available only on DVD, and haven't been in print for a while, making them a bit more expensive (up to $500 for a complete set). The original Star Trek, The Animated Series, The Next Generation and Enterprise will run you somewhere between $15 and $150 for the whole run on DVD or Blu-ray.
#VOYAGER STAR TREK SEASON 7 HOW MANY EPISODES SERIES#
If streaming services aren't your style, you can buy any of the complete series on Blu-ray or DVD, although prices vary. In the United States, watching the shows is relatively simple, as you can access the series with a Netflix, Hulu or Amazon Video subscription ($8 to $12 per month, depending on how fancy you want to get). The first thing you'll need is a way to watch the episodes and films. (Image credit: Catwalker / Shutterstock) How Do You Watch Everything? (The stories still fit together with the old continuity, thanks to a judicious application of time travel.) The two most recent films, Star Trek (2009) and Star Trek Into Darkness (2013), act as a re-boot of Kirk's original crew, but with new actors cast in the classic roles. The next four movies feature the cast from The Next Generation: Star Trek: Generations (1994), Star Trek: First Contact (1996), Star Trek: Insurrection (1998) and Star Trek Nemesis: (2002). The first six movies focus on the crew from the original series: Star Trek: The Motion Picture (1979), Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan (1982), Star Trek III: The Search for Spock (1984), Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home (1986), Star Trek V: The Final Frontier (1989) and Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country (1991). There are also 12 movies, which deal with three different casts of characters. The series explores the origins of classic Trek aliens, technologies and institutions. Jonathan Archer (Scott Bakula), captain of the first starship Enterprise, sets off to explore a very mysterious galaxy with only a stalwart crew and a desire to do some good along the way. Star Trek: Enterprise (2001 to 2005) acts as a prequel story, winding the clock back to the 22nd century. When Voyager gets hurled 70,000 light-years off course into the Delta quadrant, Janeway must bring her crew home, even though the voyage may take decades. Star Trek: Voyager (1995 to 2001) brought the series focus back to exploration under Captain Kathryn Janeway (Kate Mulgrew) and her starship, the USS Voyager. This setup leads to shady characters, racial tensions and even an all-out war. Captain Benjamin Sisko (Avery Brooks), the franchise's first black leading man, takes command of Deep Space Nine, a station guarding the galaxy's only known stable wormhole. Star Trek: Deep Space Nine (1993 to 1999) introduced the first major shift to the Star Trek formula by setting the action on a space station.
