Hi,

Who saw the series just about through and through when it aired twenty years back, and over.

I saw bits and pieces, in 1999,2000, 2001. I was only a child at the time.
 
As I live in an European country I didn't starting watching Voyager until 1998.
In fact, I did see the first two seasons on borrowed VHS-tapes from 8 january 1998 and onwards.
When one of my local stations started to air Voyager in April 1998, I was already in the middle of season 2. :D
 
I saw until about partway through the third season when it first started airing. Then our cable company dropped UPN. I don't recall how long it took before we got it back. Maybe late season 6. I got caught up when it was being showed in syndication.

I was lucky enough to see the whole series as it aired. I think the show benefited from week long intermissions. I've tried to binge watch Voyager, but can only handle 2 or 3 episodes in a sitting.
 
Yes, I watched it as it came on BBC 2. It had been stretching my levels of trek-forgiveness for a while, but even the hormonal adolescent me thought Seven's boob-socks were a step too far and I gave up somewhere in season 4.
 
I watched it first run on cable, like DS9 and Enterprise. I'd had to wait for the BBC to get TNG so made sure I saw them all.

There wasn't much I wanted to rewatch in Voyager though...
 
We watched all of TNG as a family and I saw it through season 7. We watched Voyager after that but by season 3 or so, I was now a teenager and stopped watching TV with fam altogether. I remember seeing episodes and trailers sporadically. I also saw Generations in theater(I think I was 10)

Looking back I really wish I had kept watching it. I really miss those days where you anticipate the next episode, get excited from the teasers, and wait all week to see it. I also really wish I had gone to see First Contact in theater and watched Enterprise as it aired.

When Star Trek came to Netflix I went back and watched everything: DS9, Voyager, TNG, TOS...I put off Enterprise until this last fall and really like it now. The only Trek I haven't seen are the movies Insurrection and most of Final Frontier. And the latest movie "Beyond"
 
I remember the premiere episode special, with Robert Picardo. I was excited! For me, the show didn't end up meeting my expectations, but I did see it when it first aired.
 
Like all Trek that made it to UK shores from TNG onwards, I watched it on its first air date. TNG on BBC2 until Sky had first run rights, then DS9, Voyager and Enterprise on Sky
 
I watched it religiously all the way from the premiere to the bitter end. Sometimes on Saturday night, I would watch the encore showing of that week's episode. When the series premiered, I was 10 or 11 years old :)
 
Watched it all the way through first run. Friday nights at 10PM. Used the VCR to record when I wasn't home. Miss those days.
 
I watched it when it first aired in my country, so that would have been some time after the original release (don't know exactly how much time).

I recorded them while I watched them sometimes if it was like an event episode. DS9 on Thursdays I recorded exclusively because it conflicted with NBC's lineup at the time haha.
 
I realise that everyone's different, but I still find it slightly odd that people like Trek enough to join here but don't watch all the shows, all the way through.

There's shows and seasons I preferred and some I didn't care for, but it's all Trek. I've watched the lot...
