Voyager for people who hate voyager

[JirinPanthosa]

I like Move Along Home.

I see it as an average episode, a great concept poorly executed. If they had just come up with better puzzles, it could have been a really good episode.

I almost feel asleep twice when I first watched "The Alternative Factor"!

Wow, that episode sucked.

[teacake]

Alternative Factor is terrible.

Move Along Home, well I just don't like that concept in any show. As soon as I realize that's what we're in for I'm in pain. I think even more pain than boxing episodes give me. I do like all Quark eps though (other than Profit and Lace) so I don't skip this ep.

Way to Eden, Spock's Brain, Code of Honor, and Shades of Gray need to be watched once just so you can say you watched them all.

I liked Code of Honor. Not that I thought it was a good episode, but it sure as hell is good for a laugh!

[DeepSpaceWine]

Code of Honor does have cheese going for it. It's the equivalent of mac & cheese or a grilled cheese for the eyes & ears. Give me a cheesy episode over a bad one any day. Move Along Home is a nice, cheesy episode. I do wish the Wadi were used again especially vis-a-vis DS9's crew trying to learn more about the Dominion. Or maybe they're protected because they send the Jem 'Hadar into a real game of life or death and they lose every time. I'd imagine a race genetically engineered to be soldiers wouldn't be good at games. It's a lopsided 'battle'field.

Move Along Home is soooo much better than Progress. You can pretty much get to the moment Kira beams down and just skip forward to the last moment. Saves the hassle of sitting through what is the slowest episode in Star Trek history.

"The Alternative Factor" is one of the worst pieces of Trek I've ever seen.

I hope the OP is joking about following the guide. Counterpoint, Living Witness, The Voyager Conspiracy, In the Flesh, Bride of Chaotica, One, The Omega Directive, Shattered, Q2.


So many good episodes that get the shaft in this guide, barely accurate. He got all the bad episodes but took a ton of good ones with him..

Agreed. He seriously under-rates "Thirty Days", "11:59" and "Barge of the Dead" as well, all of them are excellent episodes.

Voyager rawked. 'Nuff said.

[Guy Gardener]

If you're right, then we should probably close the forum down.

[stj]

Skimmed through it. I noted that it didn't care for the Tom Paris undercover/Seska arc, which is sensible, except that it didn't notice why the arc wasn't very good. Namely, Seska's plotting didn't make any sense, not having any believable aim.

As for the rest, most of the comments betrayed schizophrenic inconsistency, gross indifference to pretty much everything on screen, petty obsessions (aka fanboyishness) and a complete lack of critical insight.

Really, if that's what it takes to be a Voyager hater, makes you feel pretty good about your taste and judement.

[DavidLeeRoth]

I liked Seska and feel that she could have been used throughout the series. It's a shame that she was killed-off. She could have been the Dukat of Voy.

[Guy Gardener]

Janeway was the Dukat of Voyager.

[Udat]

Lol I wish.

[teacake]

That would have been a Helena Cain character which VOY was never going to produce.

[Guy Gardener]

Because she was a lesbian or because she was an efficient and ruthless female character?

Thing I hate about Ransom is how he just realises at the end that he was wrong for no real reason.

Kane did some awful shit, but she had conviction, and very little crazy.

I just finished watching season 7 finale. I have to agree with Kalitu's review of Endgame. What a horrible show and a horrible ending to a sci-fi show.

*sigh* What a waste of time. I should of never watched this show.
