Pulling the subject back to the topic at hand, which is Star Trek Voyager 20th Anniversary .
The Mulgrew Vs Ryan thing SHOULD be a thing of the past and i sense that some people feel to rehash what happened in the past to create a new drama.
The whole idea of the Anniversary was a turn of a new Chapter and creating a new future -by gones be by gones. We all are not perfect and we all have been guilty at one point or another in our lives of doing things that we regret.Ryan is married with a guy she loves and has child with . Mulgrew is happy over in NY , So what is the purpose of digging up old dirt?. I don't get it or am i missing something here?..If anything the J/7s should be pissed because we wanted them to live happy ever after together

. Despite whats been said over the years between them , I do not think both Mulgrew and Ryan was really happy with not being able to be in the same room with each other . It was evident in this reunion , they loved being together
Yes, Mulgrew is not an angel(She TRULY IS NOT) and by GOD NEITHER is Ryan. I resent the fact people insist of painting Ryan as whiter than white and can do no wrong. What you see isn't what isn't always what is appears to be.
Suffice to say , i am immensely appreciative of the fact that Mulgrew and Ryan has put their differences aside for this special day and embraced every moment they have with each other. Like Mulgrew eloquently put it " She may never have the opportunity again". I take my hat off to Mulgrew , for having the balls to be in the same room and make her physical apologies to Ryan be known
I had the opportunity today to watch the reunion in its full entirety on YT and there is evidence -by the way they were so comfortable with each other that some of the turmoil that boiled between them has now transcended into mutual loving respect .
You just have to look at Ryan's eyes when she looks at Mulgrew their is still care there.She beams in full support of Mulgrew when the audience erupted when Mulgrew received her "well deserved" applause at the beginning.
Despite my personal feelings for Mulgrew character ( when it comes to certain views). I think she is an incredibly funny ,a worldly educated, articulate has an impeccable comedic timing . I always find myself keeling over every time she throws out one of her one liners. She is at her best when she is fun and not negative or vindictive. God knows it must have taken a lot for her to be sweet for long periods of time

. I think Ryan will have been childish if she chose to dwell on the negative things that happened between them. It was a celebration after all. People didn't pay stupid amounts of dollars to see a cat fight
I love their interactions between one another - a playful side which should of been the tone they should have adopted back in the Voyager days . They certainly in turned with one another . Sure for me there should of been more PDA

and i thought Ryan should have at least given a rub or two of support to Mulgrew after her speech,but hey , i have to put it down to having found each other again , it will only be a matter of time. Maybe they both feel uncomfortable with displaying huge amounts of affection towards one another - with them being in r/ships etc .. Saying that i love the body language they gave when a woman asked about the fanfictions
I hope they will manage to steal a few moments in their new lives to stay in touch . Im not sure that will happen

, but it will be nice . They have the potential to be dear friends. I think they should take a piece of each other which they consider to be special and make that be the incentive they need to continue to have that connection - no matter how small..
Ethan Philips , i absolutely adore him. He is just such a bright sparkle to any situation . I can imagine him being such a joy to work with.
All in all..Examples of Nimoy /Shatner relationship should be taken . They manage to turn things around -given Shatners ego , that in itself is a triumphant .
