What one thing do you love about Voyager today?
- Thread starter KimMH
- Start date
This team of people really did feel like a family on screen. Perhaps that was the goal of the premise - stranded alone far from home space -it certainly worked for me!
I liked the "it takes a village" approach that the crew took for Naomi when her mother died. It really made me like Neelix a lot more too.
Seven Of Nine 
I love the family atmosphere; the relationships between Tom & Harry, Tom & B'Elanna, Harry & B'Elanna, Seven & The Doc, Tom & The Doc, Harry & Chakotay... I loved the show in general, even if my top favorite episodes of televised trek aren't a Voyager majority.
And of course, Captain/Admiral Janeway. Probably my favorite captain in all of Trek

The talking potatoes.
I would like to add Tom and his never-ending wit, Q and his various attempts to woo Janeway, and the little bundle of adorable-ness that is Naomi Wildman.
Unrelated to my love for Voyager, I really do think it has the best theme song in all of Trek. It's close with DS9, but the melody is a bit more catchy and stronger. Love it!!
I second this.
Unless I missed something, Samantha didn't actually die, though she did disappear. No, I would have to say that for me it was Briefings with Neelix. It combined the frothiness of Regis and Kathy Lee with the hard-hitting investigative topicality of O'Reilly vintage Inside Edition.
I will agree Voyager easily had the best opening theme.
Whatever my criticisms of the show are, it did carry the torch of Roddenberrian ideals and those of freedom and individualism. Seven is a symbol of respect for individual freedom, take a person raised in a fascist regime and give them the chance to become an individual. I love that about Voyager.

On the bridge...

there's no contest about which one "thing" I love best.

The one, the ONLY ... Auburn Queen!
Apparently Samantha Wildman got better. Memory Alpha says that she was mentioned several times as being alive after her last chronological appearance in "Once Upon a Time", and is mentioned in the novel "Homecoming" as returning to the Alpha Quadrant with everyone else. Her scenes in "Fury" (which I've only seen once) apparently are set 5 years earlier in the timeline.
Yeah, Naomi doesn't lose her mother. But in all honesty, Neelix and Seven were more like parents to her than her own mom. At least from what they show on-screen lol. 
^^True!
^Doing a slow re-watch with the hubs, this was one of my fav episodes. Can't wait to see it again!
I missed those, or are you talking about Sontaarans?
Wow, missed that too! Thanks for the correction! I've been reading the books too, so that was a double whiff!

Voyager's ultra-bureaucratic equivalent, the Hierarchy. I made this for another thread:
I'm curious if one inspired the other, or if it's a fluke.
I love that it is hot.
Samantha Wildman doesn't die, the producers just didn't want to pay the actress every time they wanted to use Naomi.
I would have liked them to focus a little more explicitly on the 'It takes a village' thing. Like maybe have a 'Naomi's Day' style episode where you see who is taking care of her when Samantha is on duty, how the crew shares the load and reacts to her. And how she perceives Voyager as the only home she knows. (That's touched on in the pitcher plant episode).
