    The Naked Time

    This Side of Paradise

    The Immunity Syndrome

    A Piece of the Action

    A Private Little War

     

    Oh, I could go on and on but perhaps I should stop there... :laugh:

    Aren't most of these in season 2 or three? I was just thinking about season 1 for now, but to tell you the truth, I can't wait till I get to see the entire series, including the bad ones like And the Children shall lead, and spocks brain. Also, I can't wait till I get to see the best episode title ever: For the World is Hollow and I have Touched the Sky.


  2. This is kind of a variation of "Your favorite" episode, but I'm actually looking for recommendations from you'alls that love Star Trek.

     

    I am so pyched for next tuesday to come. I've only seen very little of the series, but from what I have seen, I am ready to shell out the money to add it to my collection. I've only seen these episodes:

     

    The Man Trap

    The Menagerie

    Balence of Terror

    Shore Leave

    Arena

    Tommarow is Yesterday

    Space Seed

    Devil in the Dark

    City on the Edge of Forever

     

    What other episodes should I look foward to that is not on this list. Also, I saw these episodes on Sci-fi so they were so choppy. I can't wait to see the original unedited version.


  3. ^I agree with you about the voyager female roles. One of the things I liked about the original premise of voyager was that it was ment to show the female class that they can do anything as good as guys can. I liked the fact that they had a female captain, and a female active in your face person like Be'lana. It's a shame when they did bring in Ryan that they just used her as a sex symbol. It didn't overall match what voyager was trying to accomplish.


  4. The show definately improved when Jeri Ryan joined. She was very pretty and all that, but more than that, her character was interesting and it pushed the show forward. Unfortunately, the flaw of having so many deadweight characters proved too much.

    I tried to like Jeri Ryan, but it seemed like the show pushed the ensamble to the side and focused on her, Janeway and the Doctor most of the time. I still wish if Ryan had joined the cast, Lien would still be able to stay and have someone like Neelix or Kim go. Kes was such an interesting character, and her treatment in "Fury" is insulting.


  5. I noticed that this forum is one of the most inactive forums on this entire site. I can understand if the board is small, but there are a lot of people who frequent this place daily. I would have thought with the DVDs coming out this year, this forum would be somewhat busy. Where are all the voyager fans, or even fans of specific characters? I know voyager wasn't the best series, (That is debatable) but it's also not the worst.

     

    :)

     

    As for me, I've been watching the first 3 seasons of the show, and it's as good as I remember it. I'm liking Kes even more than I thought I would, and for some reason, I am finding Tuvok to be really really annoying. I watched Real Life last night and hope to finally finish season three by the weekend. Also, Kes's new hairdo that she got in Before and After is so much better than the blonde look she had. Jennifer finally seemed comfortable with the role, and it's a shame that her most interesting time (Before and After to The Gift) was so short. I really wish she hadn't left the series.


  6. Like many DS9ers, I am always grasping at any straw that shows Paramount remembers that there once was a show called Star Trek: Deep Space Nine.  In light of that, I would love to think that Shran is somehow connected to Weyoun and that we'll be given an Enterprise plotline that will connect to DS9 ... I can dream.

     

    But, Shran is simply another brilliant character portrayed by the awesome Jeffrey Combs.  In an interview on the DS9 DVDs, I forget which season, Combs says something about that he originally auditioned for Riker?@!?!  I can't even imagine that, can you?

    I would have loved to see Combs play Riker. I liked Frakes, but just imagine how different Riker would be if played by Combs. It would have really had an impact on the series.


  7. Did the dominion ever advance thier ships in technology or weaponry since thier first encounter with the Federation? I mean here is this jem'hadar war ship that is all powerful and is able to disable a galaxy class ship in one shot. Not only that, but then they are willing to show how far they are willing to go with a suicide run. Unfortunatly, as the series went on, it seemed like those ships got weaker. Yes it's true that the federation were able to advance (And they had the overpowered and outguned defiant) but why were the Dominion ships so easy to beat later on. One would think there would have been more of a cold war angle to the series.


  8. I was just carious because I (My alias was tomalak301) had left that place last week and decided to come back to this active discussion site. (I also post at smaller boards like Ship of Trek and Sistertrek) I was wondering if there was anyone (Specifically who posts in the DS9 forum because that was the board I spent a lot of time at) I know here and maybe keep in contact with.

     

    I don't know if I will ever go back there, but I just didn't have the heart to post there anymore and there is so much complaining and the mods ride a high horse like crazy.
