Deep Space 9 is the first ST show to have season long arcs peppered with self-contained episodes. Since someone else already mentioned Discovery, I think DS9 is a pretty good jumping on point for "classic" Trek.
Discovery is the first Trek show that isn't episodic. Each episode has their own arc. Could use that as a jumping off point to discover things you find interesting and then watch episodes of other shows central to that.
I'd suggest going through a list of the best TNG episodes
I feel like I should like it, but its episodic nature completely ruins it for me.
