You could always look up a 'best of X' to watch the very best episodes, but honestly with ST and DW you're going to miss a lot of the storyline and the personal character arcs that really make these shows what they are.
Instead, maybe watch the show and if you're watching an episode and not digging it, just skip the rest and move on to the next one. You're far less likely to miss important things this way.
