    I can see this forum is going to make me very sad.. my VCR is broken and I have no VOY on dvd (I have all of it on video).

    I am hanging out for VOY to be released in the cheaper dvd format that TNG is.

    Anyway.. I've always been primarily a VOY and DS9 fan though I started watching Trek as a teenager with TOS in the pre-TNG days. I love the DS9 story arcs and the VOY characters. 7 of 9 is my favorite character ever. I know many complain that VOY became the 7 of 9 show after a while and truly I understand that this would blow if you were not fond of her.. but I think she is fascinating and I was in heaven with all those 7 of 9 eps! I found myself thinking of 7 of 9 during a difficult period of my life--her story was inspiring to me.

    VOY is also, IMHO, always incredibly entertaining. I remember when ENT began, after watching the first season I got out some of my VOY tapes to watch them. Wow, more went on in the first 5 minutes of a VOY ep than in a whole ENT episode. Fast paced, entertaining, colourful. Yes, cheesy perhaps in part but the characters were wonderful.

    Hi, I caught a few episodes a while back, and now I just got the DVDs and I am watching from the beginning. I have the hots for 7 of 9 as I am sure many of you do. It is so ridiculous how they just dropped a tall blonde buxom woman in a skin tight suit into a show so deliberately, its like a big joke. But I think she did a great job with her character.

    I got to the 5th episode last night and realized some of the episodes can really stink. Anyone have a list of all the episodes with a rating next to them? I'd like to avoid the smelly ones.

    Hi everybody! I just signed up last night, but have been lurking for quite a while. I have been watching Trek since I was about 8, but something about Voyager just got me hopelessly addicted and now I can't stop watching.

    Welcome. Beware of od0_ital, He's one of the Mods here but he's a Niner :). I'm not sure about Akiraprise but some think he might be a dual. :lol:

    Hello! I'm an old member returning with a new name. And for some reason, I can't remember my old name lol. Anyway, I am here.

    About myself, I am a paramedic (volunteer and career) and am going to school for psychology. I am a big Star Trek/Star Wars fan. My preference is Voyager and DS9.

    Yeah, I told The Bonz this was a mistake, but she just kept goin' on & on about the "zero mod turnover" in the Niners' Forum...

    Ah, well.

    Worse - he's an ENT fan!

    Hello everyone. I wouldn't call myself a new voyager fan but I have gotten into the series again by watching it on spike. I'm gaining a new appreciation for the series in rewatching, the characters are good and some of the episodes are really good, I still think the kazon are just lame substitutes for klingons though.

    Don't you joke about something like that! :mad: :p


    To all the new VOY fans, welcome! I have to give you the warning I gave everyone else before coming in here: Watch out for Akiraprise, for god's sake! He gets kinda handsy. I know because he once... touched.... my naughty place. *cries*

    Hey everyone. I really haven't seen THAT many Voyager episodes to be honest but I've seriously been wanting to buy the season sets for over a year now but they just won't drop the prices on them! As soon as they do, I'm going after them - I've always like Chakotay and Paris and am looking foward to their adventures in the Delta quadrant. Plus, I always thought Roxann Dawson was quite attractive.

    Just wanted to introduce myself--I'm new. I've been a fan of TOS and TNG for a long time, and I've just been recently catching up with VOY, DS9, and ENT. Tom Paris absolutely makes me melt--I love Tom and B'Elanna together! I love Kes too--I think she's so adorable. I post a lot over on talk.csifiles.com, and I've seen some posters on this forum that I recognize from over there.

    I'm very new here (obviously.) and I already said hi in the DS9 forum, but I wanted to say hi here too. Voyager is my first love (though not my first Trek) and I recently finished watching them in order. I'd seen quite a few on TV the first time around, but I missed a lot.

    I'm not sure what it is about VOY, but I really dig the entire group. :) Partially B'Elanna, and Kes for the most part.

    I have been a fan for quite awhile. Once Spike started to air the series again, I started to watch it all over again. Feels strange seeing the series after it had gone off air in 2001. But of course its nice.

    Same here, I watched VOY when I was very little, but I loved it then. I had actually started to drift away from trek in general until I started watching again on Spike.

    So, Hi everybody!

    By the way I'm watching "Tinker, Tenor, Doctor, Spy" (commas?) right now. :) What a fun episode.
