We can all argue and debate which is the best Star Trek series. But I thought it would be amusing to see what came out on bottom.
Personally, I really thought Voyager sucked. Enterprise had a few good episodes, but did not grab me. TAS was just weird and often hard to watch. Disco, however (IMHO) is top dog at sucking.
When I go to con's* however, I meet Trekkies who think Disco is darn good Trek, so they must think some other Trek is the least awesomest.
* - you hear Kirk in your head when you read the word "Con"? didn't you.

Yep - Disco is the worst, so far...
I enjoyed -some- of Enterprise and occasionally liked some of "Borager" but, I couldn't even watch the whole broadcast pilot for Disco. God awful crap...

Forgive my being as slow as cold molasses running uphill in Winter, but it took me a while to find out what you all meant by "Disco" other than the musical reference.
I know the YouTube channels "Midnight's Edge" and "Midnight's Edge After Dark" have been keeping tabs in the past on all the turmoil surrounding ST:D. From all they've covered, to call it a mess is an understatement. It's more like, for example, equal to Timothy Leary and Andy Warhol collaborating on their own version of "Hamlet". THAT type of mess.
So ST:D, in my opinion, is easily the winner for the worst Trek series.

TAS had the original cast voicing it, but the plots were so...WEIRD. I remembered thinking of it fondly from my youth but I can't make it through a full episode no matter how hard I try. The early 70's synthesizer, garish lazer sound effects and I don't what they were thinking with the sound track.
For that reason, it's the worst.
Is it still canon?

Easy... STD/DISCO. It's the one that least feels like trek to me. While I love the idea of TOS era overall as a setting, the original show is campy and dated but at least was ground breaking for its time 50 years ago. DISCO is just canon breaking with change simply for the sake of change (or for the advancement of the politics of the creators) and another generic scifi mary sue in space show that I don't believe will be remembered as fondly. YMMV.

Well, that's what you get from a Norwegian animation company... I can get through it, but it is pretty bad. As for voices, it it wasn't one of the main cast, it was either James Doohan or Majel Barret. Chekov was not in TAS because the budget would not permit the full cast... Not really canon... not really not canon either.

Star Trek Discovery = STD?
Too bad I cant go to the clinic and have it removed with some cream or pills and remove it from Star Trek altogether.

STD wasn't terribad. It was mediocre scifi. It definitely should not have been Star Trek. I'd give it a C- as scifi. An F as Star Trek.

That entirely sums it up for me, JA.

I agree disco is something else entirely, that leaves enterprise as my least liked trek of the bunch.

I liked Enterprise better than Voyager, despite the liberties they took with it.

Norway Corporation (a.k.a Norway Productions) was Gene Roddenberry's production company. Filmation did the art work for The Animated Series. Neither of these companies are Norwegian, as far as I know.

I saw about 10 minutes of STDs and knew that it was an absolute stinking pile of garbage. They are obviously trying to give the middle finger to the fans...again. Is anybody else noticing the agenda of the Reds in their anti-white media getting worse and worse? What these devil worshipers have done with Star Trek is the perfect example. Its so sickening what they have done with the True Trek.

Worst is a relative term really. It depends on what criteria you are using to define worst.

I find it hard to believe that Disco's production staff would steal something like this. I hope they have memos showing how early it was developed and the changes made along the way. Though mystical tardigrades and magically linked fungi made the rounds of odder science about 2010 making it easy enough to inspire multiple creators at the same time.

Worst is a relative term really. It depends on what criteria you are using to define worst. As compared to all other Trek, STD is the least "Trekkish" of all Trek. Could have been cool, but no... "Raymond" the Show Runner opted to crank up the suck.
