Would you have liked a season 8?

Naomi was maturating twice, almost three times as fast as a human being.

Would they have dumped her for an older actress or just began stuffing Scarlets training bra with bogroll and insiting the girl stand on a pile of phone books while she acted which if the illusion was maintained well would have propelled her into a love affair with Icheb Since he seemed mostly scared when the old broads "appeared" to hit on him.
 
No,they ran out of steam after season 6.
To bad,because Voyager had a lot of potential to be a great series
 
No, I don't think so. They had enough time to do what they wanted to do with the show. I suspect that, at best, an eighth season would have been more of the same.

Few sci-fi shows run longer than 7 years and I'd say it's better to quit while you've still got an OK show than just fade away into irrelevance.
 
I'd go for a movie be everyone's too old.
As usual they waited to long.


Thats true with pretty much all good sci-fi shows. Now, can some of that blame come onto us the fans. They brought back TOS, only because a lot of fans wrote in saying put it back on, and becuase of the more people watching the re-runs. Maybe its or fault that we want a movie, but we wait to long to raise our hands and go to paramount or who ever holds the title to voyager and say we want a movie. We also have to consider that maybe they pitched it to the cast of voyager, and they didn't want to do one.

Yeah... because they've all been working alot since Voyager ended. Outside Roxann Dawson and Robert McNeil, I haven't any other names surface in forever.

What exactly would a Voyager movie be about? The writers pretty much slammed the door shut on a movie with 'Endgame'. The premise had been started and completed. Once the element of being lost in the Delta Quadrant was removed from the equation you removed the thing that held these characters together.
 
I was guessing.
Robert McNiel has done pretty much only sci-fi, from what I have seen.
He starred in Stargate SG-1/Stargate Atlantis.
 
When Jeri Ryan is allowed to suck on Robert Beltran's finger...it's time to put that horse down!

I declare you the winner of the thread. :mallory:

Amen to that!

Quoted for truth.

There was a fan-made Virtual Season 7.5 and 8. Some of the eps were pretty good, and, iirc, they re-wrote the last half of Season 7 that no-one liked anyway :) I'm pretty sure VOY kept trucking around in the DQ having adventures.

If the series had kept them out in the DQ/BQ sans C/7, I would have watched that damn show religiously for the remaining 30 years or however long they had left. I'm a die-hard like that. :)

I doubt the actors nixed the idea of a movie. VOY's fanbase is a lot smaller than the other Treks - probably wasn't worth it to Paramount. A movie could have worked; there's a lot of good post-homecoming fanfic and some of the TrekLit books. They could have done a movie a la Distant Shores, as well - it didn't have to be chronological.
 
but a good movie would have MADE fans better than the shitty advertising the tv show had and force new zombies to go back and buy the DVD box sets.

And a bad movie would have given these idjits the smug satisfaction of being right.
 
They were pretty much out of ideas by S7, and by all logic, S8 would be even worse.

But then, if it would have meant Endgame not happening, I'm all for it,
 
but since Future Guy was obviously Braxton, if Enterprise had Forfeited all it's stories to Voyager series 8 - 11 that whole pile of Bollocks would have made a lot more sense...

Future Guy: "Wooooo... I am a mysterious friend from the future who wants to help you even when it looks like I stabbing you in the back. wooooooo!"

Janeway: "Bullshit. You're Captain Braxton."

Though I would have loved it if janeway had been sent back tot he founding of the federation to make sure that it was founded right despite timetravellers and assholes trying to make the bugger a stillborn.... Which would have been Janeway and Voyager watching over Enterprise all secretlike, unless they had janeway replace the Captain Daniels character and hells just have a whole bunch of Voyager cast matriculating through Archers Enterprise and he doesn't know that half his crew are time travellers who already studied this life they're living now back in grade school.
 
If the series had kept them out in the DQ/BQ sans C/7, I would have watched that damn show religiously for the remaining 30 years or however long they had left. I'm a die-hard like that. :)

Me too. However, I don't think I could have stomached a Season 8 with C/7. I would have dropped the show in that case.
 
I think we would have embraced it if they had just given us something to latch onto that was "wholesome" about their relationship. A few more hit or miss episodes and they might have "produced" that something.

Consider the most heartfelt gesture that got me in behind Tom and B'Elanna: She built him a TV.

I honestly said to my girlfriend at the time, while watching the episode, Why haven't you made me a TV?
 
I haven't seen most of the episodes, so every season is like a season 8 for me.

Until I've seen them all. Then I'll get back to you.
 
They could do like those gilligans island tv movies, where everyone gets together for a reunion and ends up being re-stranded on the island...
 
I'd go for a movie be everyone's too old.
As usual they waited to long.

That didn't stop anyone from making TOS movies. Why can't it just be set years later?

I think it's less about age and more about some of the actors letting themselves go a bit. Nothing that can't be fixed with a personal trainer.
