How long does it take to watch all of Star Trek?

The five live-action Star Trek series made between 1966 and 2005 — Original Series, Next Generation, Deep Space Nine, Voyager and Enterprise — come to 703 episodes and about 529 hours. That is 22 days of unbroken viewing, or three years at an episode a night. Counting every Star Trek series ever made, including the animated ones and the streaming era, the franchise reaches 963 episodes across 52 seasons, plus fourteen theatrical films. The two numbers are frequently confused, and the larger one covers roughly a third more material.

The whole franchise, including animated and streaming-era series, is 963 episodes across 52 seasons — considerably more than the 703 counted here.
