   I don't know about "widely", but I think we can agree that not too many people   
   would class Voyager or even Enterprise as the best.   
      
   Fans, I think, will always go with TOS - and perhaps with TNG as a close   
   second.   
   Actually, there are some fans who will take TNG as the best, since TOS did have   
   obvious limitations.   
      
   But there is definitely a large class of non-fans who might well class DS9 as   
   the best. TV critics, for example, and other people who like high-class arty   
   programming will approve of its long story arcs, among other things.
