Hera Story

[Trekboy1993]

Yes. If they were going to do a lost in space show anyway, then resolving that story would've been a really good tie in. I never liked the Maqui angle, nor many of Voyager's characters, & I'd have preferred Madge Sinclair as the featured starship captain over Kate Mulgrew incalculably.

I've never even watched the whole show, all the way through, because of her & her character. Occasionally I'll watch an episode after folks discuss it, like Equinox in here. Just watched it. Not a terrible episode, a little stale given the premise, but what kills it? as usual, Janeway sucks, & Mulgrew is kind of annoying in her portrayal, imho.

Unfortunately, the notion of Madge Sinclair being a featured captain at the time Voyager was released is unrealistic, as she passed away from Leukemia that very year. Interestingly enough. I have a theory of what happened to Captain Silva La Forge... & it has something to do with this...

.... the ill fate of the USS Saratoga, & her unnamed captain, in Star Trek: The Voyage Home... Perhaps the same person, 84 years earlier

Madge Sinclair was a fine actress many people from my generation will remember her as Queen Sarabi (Simbas mom) on The Lion King

In all honesty, the writers might have screwed that premise just like Voyager.

I don't know. I like the idea that the Hera is lost forever. Sometimes, ships just vanish. They all aren't still out there just waiting to be found again. Death needs to mean something.

Sometimes we need closure

Sometimes we need closure

On one hand, I can understand that. I always wanted TNG to follow up on the episode Conspiracy and others. On the other hand, it's a TV show and I don't really need closure for a TV show.

I'm not sure how the Trek PTB would be able to cope with multiple Vulcans on a show though.
