Criminally underrated and completely on par with TNG and DS9
Now try actually watching it.
>>219348854I have, and I would again
It's really stupid.BTW the whole premise is flawed. They didn't need to strand themselves, they could've blown up the array after they used it to get home.
>>219349045>it's really stupidSo is a lot of trek but that's not the pointI want entertaining non grim bottle stories
>>219348820Maybe on planet retard
>>219348820VOY and ENT hold up. I dont think they are as good as TNG or DS9, but they are actually Trek and got a lot of underserved hate at the time, probably because of Trek fatigue and because they were good just not as good. That said no one in 10 years will be watching, much less re-watching nutrek.
>>219348820>Its 1st and last episode are better than DS9's
>>219348820Something about the way UPN filmed their TV shows makes it not good as TNG or DS9. Can't quite place it.
Why didn’t janeway ask q to teleport them back to earth? The one that was trying to unalive himself probably would have done it
I just started this. It’s really good.>Neelix isn’t bad at all. Everyone else ranges from acceptable to great. >kazons are dumb but the creepy aliens who steal body parts more than make up for itWere trek boomers really so spoiled that they turned their noses up at this?
>>219348820I prefer VOY due to it having to less filler episodes than DS9. Way too many baseball and cooking episodes in DS9.
>>219349045Yeah they could have just rigged some photons on a timer or something. But everyone understands that it was a plot device to get them stranded and couldn't be solvable. It's bad writing but whatever.
>>219348820Voyager's entire run is like TNG season 7 where they'd gone as far as they could with the episodic format and were running out of ideas. You get some good episodes but there's just too much mid tier filler.
>>219354557Yes, they wereAt least the flaws of ENT are real
>>219355115I just have no interest in the whole Cardassians vs Bajorans thing. I find it obnoxious and boring.
>>219348820>delete the wifeJaneway best captain.
>>219348820VOY simply fails to live up to its premise and potential >They're stranded and strapped for resources, Will they be able to retain their federation values?>Yeah, turns out it's pretty easy and they're not that hard pressed for resources at all>Half the crew is maquis dissidents who renounced the Federation, will they be able to get along?>Yes, turns out they assimilated almost seamlessly It's not bad, but it's frustrating.
>>219355571I agree. DS9 lore is pretty boring without the Dominion. Cardassians aren't a peer threat to the Federation so they aren't nearly as interesting as the other A-list alien races.
>>219356564>Cardassians aren't a peer threat to the FederationI think they are. Why else would the Federation cede territory in the peace treaty with them?
I feel like the writers were really split between wanting to do adventures of the week like TNG or a long story arc like DS9 so the whole series was really bipolar.
>>219355571I find the Cardassian and Bajoran situation more interesting than the Dominion war. Sure, you probably couldn't do their entire series with just that as your main plotline, but Founders and Jem Hadar as societies are pretty bland in terms of motives. The most important things about the Dominion war were how it influenced the Cardassians.
>>219348820I don't believe you because not even TNG is on par with DS9.
>>219348820The doctor and his antics are the only highlight of Voyager the rest of the crew are as boring as dog shit.Its still leagues better than the vast majority of television in current year but that doesnt make it on par with TNG, DS9 is slightly better but also suffers from a mostly garbage crew but its recurring minor characters are where it shines, VOY doesnt even have that.
Voy sucks fucking dick and I'm sick of this revisionism of trying to make it good. No, just because you have 3-4 good episodes per season does not make the show good.
>>219360404>DS9>Garbage crewWow I wish I had your level of retardation because life must be so much simpler that way. The only one I'll grant you is garbage is Jadzia Dax. Everyone else is great.
>>219360671dude, its debatable whether Avery Brooks is sentient, let alone an actor.
>>219360751Shit bait don't @ me. You're unable to read nuance in a person and cannot discern body language on a basic level. A true thespian is invisible in your eyes to the point where you claim they're bad because they're not eyebrowmaxxing or whisper-yelling.
>>219360958lol, what a dork.
>>219348820Fucking Beast Wars is a better Star Trek Voyager than Voyager, Actions actually have consequences. Something breaks oops can't make another one!
>>219348820It is.>>219348854I have and do.>>219350236They are.
>>219350159Both series start pretty rough and take a long while to find their footing and it's the worst episodes that people remember the most, but when they're good they're really good and beyond that they represent a simpler era of TV where you could watch a sci-fi show where two characters turn into salamanders and it's still an enjoyable time.
You kind of keep hoping the cast will get less boringAnd then they give up and just focus on the Doctor and SevenEven though Tuvok can be cool and there's hints of a great character in Janeway but they never commit because it's a weekly show
>>219348820there are only three characters I like in that image. and one of them I only like for her body. that's bad.
What are the good episodes of VOY so I can skip the rest?
>>219348820>black Vulcan retcon>female captain who promptly gets lost>annoying attempt to clone Data’s popularity with the EMH who eventually gets recognized as a heckin valid real life form because of course he does>annoying alien cook (Guinan knock off, too) who’s fucking a 14 year old>annoying bitch half-Klingon played by a quadroon who’s somehow a worse actress than Zendaya>annoying Asian ensigncel that literally nobody in the fandom has time for>le heroic indigenous-person rebel because being a terrorist is totally okay when they do it>obvious autistic goonerbait>a six foot loogie of oatmeal >zero memorable episodes>nonsensical bullshit like not having power for replicators but having plenty for holodeck shenanigansI was in my second year of college when VOY was announced and I clearly remember my feelings, as an OS/NG fan, were “this sounds like the Star Trek team have lost their minds”. Turns out I was right.VOY was when the cancer that killed Star Trek metastasized to the point it broke through the skin. All the dumb shit JJ Abrams did and the utterly retarded fucking shit Kurtzman did that’s killed the franchise? This is where it all started.Fuck Voyager and fuck you, OP.
>>219355571I’m team Cardassia. Bajorans are irritating sanctimonious holier-than-thou cunts. I’d have genocided the lot of them and not thought twice.
>>219360157Try harder>>219360472This.
>>219348820No dude its easily worse than TNG and DS9.It's not bad, its mediocre and filled with wasted potential, regardless of the handful of genuinely great episodes it has. Worth watching for sure if you like trek.
>>219348820the already dull series is ruined by knowing how disgusting the croaky pathetic hag was to 7of9 for the entire running of the thing.what a petty cunt
>>219348820TBG>TOS>TAS>Orville>ENT>VOY=DS9>Nutrek
>>219360671Only good main crew characters in DS9 are Worf and O'Brien. Both are hand me downs from TNG. Then everyone is outshone by a simple tailor.
>>219364857firstly, the medical guy becoming something more sort of fits with the idea that llms might be if they were given persistent memory and left on for long enough, which is what happened to him.secondly, the disgusting little pervert dwarf was banging a 4 year old, not 14.i must be about your age. a girl I knew at the time invited me to watch it with her and I declined as I wasn't particularly interested in star trek.around the same time, some other girls I knew invited me to watch smallville with them, I declined as it looked like a soap opera and was shitting on the name of superman.pretty sure I have another one up my sleeve but not sure what it was right now.dont know why I was such a retard, but I likely haven't improved much since.sort of explains to some extent why my life is in the pits though.i have a feeling that your tirade was written at work while making a ton of money so you can come back in another month and let off some steam between rounds of golf and picking up your daughter from university.
>>219364916agreed. how can I send credits to cardassia to finish the job
>>219350159I like them both better than Truck Stop 9. Not as much as ST or TNG.
>>219364916Thankfully you'll never be in any position of control except where you release your bowel movements and as we can see here, you make us suffer with your so-called posts.
>>219365253I’m coming off fourteen hours of manually adjusting mass-data compiling software systems to deal with daylight savings changes and I’m grumpy.
>>219365223You are completely splitting hairs by not including Odo, Quark and Kira as main crew members. Those 3 are better characters than any crew member on TNG that isn't Data or Picard
>>219365378>OdoShit belongs in a bucket.>QuarkWalking stereotype. Nog was better.>KiraOh boy another abrasive bitchy female character.Totally mogged by Ivanova.
>>219365427>IvanovaYou mean the "actress" who is arguably worse than Monique Gabrielle? Claudia Christian is fucking terrible and couldn't act her way out of a box, let alone a character like Ivanova.
>>219365427You are an idiot. There's no point debating you on this. I'd have to teach you far too much to make you understand. Enjoy your life of dullardry
>>219365449We’ll have to agree to disagree.
>>219365449I swear it's the actors that make JMS's cringy dialog work. Like have you tried to read any of his comics? They suck.
>>219349045no the couldnt. the kazon were overwhelming them. they would have needed to leave and then come back to retake it the premise is fine and perfectly executed after that
>>219348820>Criminally underrated and completely on par with TNG and DS9Only, ONLY if you cut the fat and reduce the series to 3-4 seasons of content. The show's ultimate flaw was that it was pulled in too many directions without fully committing to anything. Resulting in a lower density of quality episodes. That said I still don't know if I can forgive the series for butchering the Borg. All they did was double down on all the bad things the Borg Queen represented from First Contact (which they could have fixed/amended), and had stupid episodes where most of the bridge crew willingly assimilate themselves to infiltrate them and have no lasting repercussion/trauma from it.
