Netflix releases top 10 most rewatched Trek info

[JRTStarlight]

I think it's encouraging to learn Netflix will show Star Trek: Discovery in 188 countries beginning September 25th. This does not include the U.S. and Canada, of course, but the fact they have it at all strongly suggests to me they will show it in the U.S. and Canada eventually. That's just a guess, but I think they would. Anybody here think or know differently?

But it's also good to know they don't count the first two episodes of each series since those would naturally have higher than normal views.

"Clues" and "Time and Again" being there is kind of random...

In other news, The Borg sell

Endgame is a pretty gripping, action packed two part episode that wraps up the series nicely - far more cleanly than other Trek series are often wrapped up - and it's Triumphant and Epic and pretty important to know regarding the fate of the Borg, one of the nastiest threats the Federation has even faced.

It's a heck of an ending.

See I thought the opposite. As a fan of Voyager, I thought it embodied almost everything wrong with the show. The time travel aspect was kinda fun, but it wasn't very creative or interesting; the future technology was ridiculously overpowered; and the way they dealt with The Borg so easily at the end was just irritating.

...And 177 people have watched all 695 episodes - that's 22 days - of the entire franchise in the last year(in the UK)
.

Ahem I might have done this last year...

As for VOY doing better on Netflix in the UK, I seem to remember it used to be fairly popular back in the day. I remember the 35th Anniversary with a Star Trek night and a VOY episode was voted for by the public to air that night over all the other series. I remember all of the leads from each series doing an introduction for their favourite episode.

Now whilst I class myself as a TNG/DS9 fan first, I think VOY's two-parters still hold up. I know the show lacked consistency but it tended to shine when it came to bigger event episodes.

Of course binge watching the series was a lot easier for TNG and DS9 so there you go.

No way! I'm one of those 177 people in the UK!

Viewers want to be assimilated it seems. Also standalone episodes not surprisingly being more rewatched over heavily serialized episodes.

Surprised TOS is nowhere on the list. DS9 might be too serialized for some people.

Sorry, didn't know there was already a topic about this.

Can a mod please lock/close this topic?

The Borg are so making a comeback on CBS All Access sooner rather than later.

And, of course, the unnamed aliens from Time and Again.

I'm not. Been around for fifty years at this point between syndication and home video. Whenever I watch it, I break out the Blu-ray's.

The Borg are so making a comeback on CBS All Access sooner rather than later.

And some have been saying they should make a comeback in the films for like ten years now.

 

[Tim Thomason]

First ten minutes:

"We are the Borg. You will be assimilated. Resistance is futile."

Borg ship blows up. A new super-powerful enemy appears from out of the rubble.

"Well, that was easy. Now, onwards to the Federation and that dastardly Jean-Luc Picard, who we'll take care of, post-haste!"

When introducing a new enemy, you have to remove the old enemy.
