Over the last couple of years, this question has been asked several times --
In What Order Should I Watch Trek?
The general recommendation has been to watch in (mainly) the order in which it was produced / broadcast / released. It can also be watched in the Trekverse chronological order -- but this gets tricky because new pre-TOS shows are being released.
The second pair of lists gives both options, with the third list block showing how to "properly" watch the last two TOS movies; the last part of TNG (plus most of the movies); all of DS9; and most of VOY. Not shown is the reboot series of movies, which would best be seen before PIC Season 1.
Series Abbreviations (in alphabetical order)
- ACAD - Academy
- DISCO - Discovery
- DS9 - Deep Space Nine
- ENT - Enterprise
