In
your opinion. That's fine, everyone has an opinion, but don't expect everyone to share
yours. I'll note that the "even taking" suggests you don't think much of TNG and DS9 either.

But when you add in other genre examples, Farscape Firefly Battlestar (TNG) TOS is panto by comparison.

I had to look up "panto" - apparently suggesting a children's show? Well, Farscape was a fantasy show with muppets. Firefly was a Western. Although I sometimes watched Farscape, the stories and the characters didn't impress me much. I couldn't get interested in Firefly enough to watch more than two or three episodes. Better than Star Trek? In my opinion, not even close.
I like the new BSG, but it is different from Star Trek. Different, but not better.
That is all in my opinion, of course. I don't care if you agree.

When you think of West Wing, 24, The Sopranos and The Shield, TOS looks like a preschool play.

So now you are going outside the genre?

I can see you are passionate about the subject, though. So please feel free to tear apart my argument with a reasoned counter.

What argument? That you don't like Star Trek? That's pretty obvious.
You seem pretty passionate. My only "passion" is annoyance when people think everyone else should be expected to share their opinion.
