Modern Era Star Trek Series Ranked

by Simon Mar 26,2025

Since the launch of *Star Trek: Discovery* in 2017, the franchise has seen a significant resurgence, culminating in the recent release of *Star Trek: Section 31* on Paramount+. Although *Section 31* didn't meet all our expectations, it still delivered moments that stand shoulder to shoulder with some of the best in *Star Trek* history.

Given the mixed reception to *Section 31* and the acclaimed success of *Strange New Worlds*, it's an ideal time for fans to voice their opinions on the modern era *Star Trek* series. While *Section 31* is technically a movie, we're including it in our rankings because it originally began as a planned series.

Now, you have the opportunity to create your own tier list and compare it with the broader IGN community. Do you believe *Strange New Worlds* deserves its top spot? Or do you feel *Discovery* should rank higher than its current D grade? The power is in your hands!

### Star Trek Series of the Modern Era

Personally, I found the third season of *Picard* to be outstanding, more than compensating for the shortcomings of the first two seasons, earning it an A in my book. *Prodigy* holds a special place in my heart as well, essentially serving as the *Voyager* sequel I never knew I needed, and I rate it at least a B, if not higher.

You can view my tier list below and then explore how to watch *Star Trek* in chronological order, get the latest updates on the upcoming *Star Trek* live-action comedy and *Starfleet Academy* series, and delve into what happened with *Star Trek 4*.
