Question above. My only experience is with a handful of episodes from the original series. They were OK, but I'm not sure I want to watch the whole thing. It's a little too low budget for me. Can I just jump into the movies or one of the later series?

I should have been more clear that it Motion Picture isn't trek in general but TOS. I haven't watched it in maybe 15 year so excuse memory glitches but iirc it has almost all of the elements of a TOS episode but with a gigantic budget and extended runtime. Kirk acting cocky, losing newly introduced crew members, negative space wedgies, spock being a weirdo, rubber mask aliens (sort of, more short skirted aliens) the plot ties back to something humans did in the past.
The thing it is missing is kirk solving the situation by calling in an orbital strike.
