Thinking about re-watching Voyager from start to finish.

To be fair, season seven has a few good episodes (Critical Care, Shattered, The Void and Author Author) but they're in a sea of pure mediocrity, which is hard to stomach after seasons 4-6 were so good.
 
An example of over focus on one supporting character (for me) is ST TNG's "Nemesis. I loved TNG, but I haven't seen Nemesis since the theater, even though I have it on dvd, because I couldn't take another Data heavy story. I even hated the ending, because it WASN'T the big emotional tear jerker like the end of Wrath of Khan since they already provided an alternate Data to "carry on".

But that one was retarded! They mothballed him!

I'll admit to being beyond meh over Data's sacrifice.
 
And shame. I think VOY Season 2 is pretty good. :) You know, besides that whole "Threshold" thing.

Season 2 has some excellent episodes including "Resistance", "Death Wish" and "Meld". If someone can get it for $2 well more power to them!

There are some winners in season two and I loved how it ended, but overall, I thought it was pretty bland. I loved it initially, but I didn't feel it held up in the long run.

And season three... :rolleyes:

This isn't a bashing thread, after all. I consider seasons two and three to be the low points, but the show really picks up starting in season four all the way to the end. :)
Agreed.

However in retrospect, I do like season 2 & 3 for the character development of Tuvok, Be'Lanna and the Doc.
I don't think I would have appreciated those characters as much in the later years if it wasn't for s2&3.
 
I am soooo out of synch, since I loved season 2 & 3. Yes, it had its share of "Spock's brain" type eps, but everything else made up for it.

The banter between Janeway and Chakotay on the way to the cargo bay near the end of "The 37's", and that hand on her shouder.

The banter at the end of "Projections" between the EMH and Kes.

Near the end of "Elogium", when Janeway "compliments" Chakotay..."Good work, Commander. In the future, if I have any questions about mating behaviour, I'll know where to go."

Watching Tom and Neelix tussle over the pasta and Kes, not to mention the look on Janeway's face when she "inspects" the two immediately after said tussle in "Partruition".

I liked all of "Persistence of Vison". It gave insights into many of our crews past (B' Elanna, Tom, Tuvok, Janeway) and into their possible futures/abilities (Kes, The EMH.)

Hey, I'd love to critique the rest of my season favs, but time waits for no-one. Later.
