Star Trek Voyager... many years on..

Hi WWW

I just finished watching Voyager again.. I don't rem the last time I completed watching all seasons.. possibly 15 years ago on a second sitting.

I am left a little underwhelmed this time.. which I don't remember ever feeling this way about the ending of the show.

I want to see a few episodes of them settling into life back home.. this feels like a strong desire now. I watched every episode start to finish, over the course of a week.. and.. the above says it all.

What happened to the crew after they returned?

It's slowing me down to switch to another Star Trek.. as I *may* have went to TGN after this and then DS9.. I'm still half way through TOS. I finished Enterprise some years ago (see this blog on me starting it)..

The new Star Trek is.. great really enjoying it. It has MANY continuity errors.. SERIOUSLY, like the tech is not correct for the Discovery ship and Spock never had a sister, spock had a brother.. but I realize this is the alternate timeline in play here.. where Vulcan was destroyed. I think that yes.. they *could* have used some of the tech from Spock's future ship to upgrade some of the systems..

But they don't act TOS.. they are MEANT to be TOS on another ship. The writers.. don't really care to much about that, nor the producers.. I mean I have heartily enjoyed getting to know Capt. Pike and now in the second series they are FINALLY paying homage to TOS.. with sharing Pikes TOS story with us..

BUT MAN! You have a job to share TOS with us.. all the TOS 'bad guys' should be making an appearance.. I know we had at least a couple but..

I am however glad to see the special effects dept. be true to TOS. This is to their great credit.

paying homage to TOS and BEING a ship inside TOS are two different things.
First season.. TOS setting was set to 1. Second season.. TOS setting was set to 3.

Third season.. lets try and hit a 9 or a 10!

I want to find out:

How did the Tribbles infect the Klingons to give them their genetic disease. (losing their fore-ridges)

What happened to the Andorians? (post Enterprise) Where they wiped out? What happened??

Where is Spock's older brother??

What is Number One's first/surname name? Is it Leigh Hudec? Or Eureleigh Hudec? or Eureleigh Hudec-Lefler? Come to think of it.. if your name was 'Eureleigh Hudec-Lefler' you'd quickly pick up a nickname too!

Leigh Hudec is Majel Barrett's birth name.. who played Number One originally.

Enterprise was a great show.. people just hated that awful prog rock country music at the start! Like I say: with Star Trek you have two choices; Fanfare OR Space Rock + Fanfare.

One thing that stood out during this rewatch of Voyager.. is how many ideas they lifted from Red Dwarf.. now *that* was funny :) ... the art imitating the parody!
