Personally I think all of the different series have their positives and
negatives.  TNG suffered through two seasons of repeats from TOS.  DS9 was 
good
 and original but had very long story arcs that if you missed some episodes 
you
 could get lost.  Voyager had Janway as a one women solve all problems.  It
over came that in the last three seasons.  Enterprise was really good but
suffered from season three and four being nothing but the Xindi.  So like I 
say
 I enjoyed them all and they all had their own problems.

Now the new movies are another question all together.  While I like the actors
playing the TOS crew, it lacks the same dynamic that all the TV and original
movies have.  That and the lense flares are almost blinding.  

Other listen in on this, please feel free to jump in with your own thoughts 
and
 comments.

We can do the same thing here in Canada.  I had a USA netfix account for 
awhile
 but dropped it as the only things they had that we didn't I wasn't interested
in or could get else where legally.
