I gave it a 10 since it is the only Star Trek series that I've actually been interested in enough to watch the entire series in order. TOS and TNG are good as reruns but that's it. I won't even think of DS9, I tried it a couple times.
I went with a 7 - it did have some great characters and episodes, but it had some pretty lousy episodes, too. Well, they all did, but I think Voyager missed its Trek calling to do something truly unique. It did this sometimes, but it missed more often than it succeeded, IMO. But when it was good, it was very, very good and sometimes even great. And it was almost always entertaining.
I concur. My favorite Trek. VOY TNG DS9 TOS ENT The middle three shows are so close. Hard to really order them. ENT is rightfully so at the bottom, but even there it's still not a terrible show. I watched all four seasons and enjoyed them off and on.
7/10. Despite it's short commings it had a lot of things going for it and I still enjoyed it. TNG 10/10 DS9 9/10 VOY/TOS-7/10 ENT 5.5/10
I gave up on it when I realized Porthos was my favorite character. No dog this week? This episode stinks.
5. When it was good, it was very good (about 20 episodes). When it was bad, it was very bad (about 20 episodes). The rest was very forgettable.
I give this show a 7.5 just because of the few faulty things that were in the show. But overall, I found this show quite entertaining and interesting and just loved the characters! Despite it's faults, Voyager did indeed become a good show in the day. My favorite seasons are 2 and 3 just because of the the crap that starting happening then. And Basics just made me wanna throw something at the TV set. I swear I started cursing out the damn Kazons for taking over the ship! It was EXTREMELY irritating! But this is the ONE show that I religiously watched every week and was always eager to watch the trailors for the next week's episodes. The most memorable trailer was for "Displaced". I was like: uh-oh..everyone's fixing to disappear!
Part of me wants to rate Voyager an 8 because it was the first series I became obsessed with. But the problem is that I do see its faults; I'm not blind. Gonna go with 7 for reasons most people already stated... don't want to sound like a broken record.
I gave it an 8. It`s the only series I`m really a FAN of. I can see the issues, but I love it so much. 1. Voy 2. TNG 3. DS9 The others I really don`t like very much. I found this interesting quote- did you know that Hillary Clinton was watching Voyager? Enjoy! You can find it there http://www.geocities.com/TelevisionCity/Station/1965/archive/nowvoy12.txt "Kate loves playing Captain Janeway. [... ] Kate said she fell in love when she read her on the page. She feels that Janeway is a role model, and at no time was this made more evident to her than when she was invited to the White House. Mrs. Clinton told Kate that Voyager is the only show that she and Chelsea watch together, and that they both feel that Janeway is a wonderful role model."
I'd give Voyager a solid 6/10. You get shit episodes like "Threshold" and lame characters like Chuckles, but on the other hand you get great episodes like "Drone" and legendery characters like the EMH. It was hamstrung by creative burnout by the original TNG writers and the meddlings of bland corporate suits from Paramount.
