Star Trek was excellent.
Into Darkness was entertaining, but terrible.

This, by the way, is from Moby Dick

I'll chase him round the moons of Nibia, round the Antares Maelstrom and round Perdition's flames before I give him up.

I liked Voyager, enough to own all the seasons on DVD. I still watch from time to time in marathon sessions. I've never spent much time on any of the others - though it is on my list of things to do.
I watched voyager a few times when it was on tv. I plan on watching the series in full after I finish Enterprise on netflix. I highly recommend enterprise. It starts out a little slow, but stick with it. It gets good.
