Voyager finale

[frandroid]

...what??

I've enjoyed the show once they brought in the Borg and Seven of Nine, (though I can't say I've enjoyed the rest of the Borg that much) but wow that was an abrupt ending?

Now I just have to wheel back and watch Threshold (aka lizards) which I skipped over thanks to my meta-episode guide.

Deciding whether to start ENT or Babylon 5 now... I mean I know B5 is the better show but ENT is one of the two treks I've seen practically nothing of, with TOS.

I also have to finish watching the extra material from DS9 and VOY. That Avery Brooks segment was quite striking.

We're towards the end of DS9 at the moment and my husband is clear he doesn't want to move on to Voyager which I'm a bit disappointed about because I've only watched it the once. He also passed on the reruns of Enterprise which again I was disappointed by because I've only seen it the once although it would have meant we had to listen to the theme tune which drove me nuts

I had used a meta-episode guide that compiled rate averages from 5 or 6 different episode guides. I've just spent the last 10 minutes trying to track it to no avail. Maybe you'll have better luck? That meta guide was pretty decent, other than skipping over Threshold and Tuvix. :P (Clearly the word "meta" wasn't the key word to find it, you'll have to get creative...)

Maybe binge the first 3 seasons on your own, and bring him on board for when the Borg/Seven get in the series? I think the key for me was to focus on Janeway, Seven and the Doctor as the key characters/actors to fully appreciate the series.

Holy cow you weren't kidding

Whaaaat Threshold is the best episode of any TV show ever.

[frandroid]

Some of these guides clearly didn't have "comedic absurdity" as part of their criteria... I also had to fish out Tuvix from the discard pile!

[sabotabby]

Tuvix is also amazing. Though largely for the shitposting memes.

I had missed that episode during the initial run, and it's the memes that have made me look it up. :)
