Yep, it's like watching Fringe all over again expect they are spending more
time in space. I enjoyed the reboot from the point of view that it was something StarTrek on the big screen (for the first time ine ages) and felt
the actors did an ok job at playing the roles. I liked Nimoy being in it. Found it hard to see the way they adjusted things such as Kirk dies and is reborn vs Spock etc.
Then again what do I know. Hollywood can't get it wrong. At least they won't admit that.

no probs... i agreeva younger cast and a time line that makes sence would have been better but when younthink about it it only makes sence because we
have already experienced that version of events ans as such the rest of it just seems darn weird.
cannon past just the original crews (all five crews). Some of the
books are just fluff but others are really interesting and explain the origins of the Borg (I just finished this series). I guess what I'm trying to say is that I like these characters and want to see them continued.
P.S. Sorry for the late reply. It's summer here and I'm not paying as much attention to the BBS as I should be. Hope you enjoy your winter.

Hello all. Up here in Canada, Space (a TV channel) is playing all of Voyager and TNG. They have been doing this now for a few years. In
the last few months I've been watching Voyager while eating breakfast.
I know Voyager was considered the bastard child of Trek but as I've
been rewatching it, I'm finding it really not that bad. Don't get me wrong it has it's fair share of bad episiods just like the rest.
Janeway to the rescue can get a bit old sometimes, and personally any episiod that revolves around the Holodeck are just bad.
What do others think about Voyager?

I'm watching through the Voyager episodes right now. As it was the only of the
series
left where I've not already seen most of the episodes for that reason alone
've
been enjoying it. I guess I like all the series, I even half liked Enterprise.
I thought Voyager could get a bit corny at times with some of the jokes and
dialogue,
but overall I enjoyed it. I don't mind the holodeck episodes much - In fact,
those
were always some of my favorites (as well as the holodeck episodes in TNG). Of
the
holodeck episodes, I particularly liked the ones with Fair Haven.
Overall, I thought some of the funniest episodes in Voyager were the ones revolving
around the doctor - Particularly, when he implemented the Emergency Command
Hologram,
the one where he became very popular on a planet for singing opera, and when
the
captain sent him to the alpha quadrant onto the other Starfleet ship and he
interacted with a newer holographic doctor.
The Doctor (Joe as he names him self) is a great character and show a lot of growth through out the series. I actually met Robert Picardo at a con one year. Seemed like a really down to earth guy but was very passionate about his
craft. At the dinner he did a skit with Marina Sirtis, John de Lancie, Ethan Phillips and Chase Masterson.
You could tell how much he enjoys acting. Even for only 75 people he put is all in to it. Ethan Phillips was pretty cool also. He didn't get in to it as much but was still very comedic. Chase Masterson did a song and dance number and was doing kicks in to the air. Funny thing is, it was my wife that pointed
out to me that you could see her underware in those kicks. She even got a picture (and no I won't post it).
That's pretty cool. I was thinking about going to my local Comic Con several
weeks ago because Wil Wheaton, Nichelle Nichols, and Walter Koenig were there,
but I ended up having some other things going on that weekend. Would be cool
to meet one of the Star Trek actors.
Voyager grew on me -- I didn't like the Kes/Neelix story, but as
it went on, I liked the storylines about adjusting to life in
the delta quadrant. Year in Hell was a great story to me, on par
with Best of Both Worlds in TNG.
I find the series > Star Trek Continues < it look interesting
only 4 episodes are available.
I've only watched a couple of the episodes and so far they are quite good. The stories are good so far. It is sometimes a little hard to get used to the new people playing Kirk, Spoke and the rest but really they do a pretty good job of it.
