You can count on it!

I finished watching DS9 but was too choked up about it to post anything. Now I’m reaching the end of season 3 of Voyager. My goal of being caught up on various characters and stuff before Picard is nearly complete!

Voyager changes dramatically by season 4. It really started to hit its stride.

I’m really looking forward to it! I like Voyager, but the beginning of all the 90s shows has been hit or miss.

well, they do taste like a scallop

EDIT: Well boo, looks like Paramount was only temporarily letting people see on of the best twists on Trek Lore. Oh well.

The Next Generation took two seasons to get comfortable in its own skin.

They did an alternate take of that scene where the Klingons are singing opera and the dancing is not as energetic. Exact same lyrics though. Annoyingly I can’t find it online right now though I did see it somewhere.

A marriage strong enough to last 2 shows, various attempts by DS9 scriptwriters to make Miles miserable, and the polyamory of Julian Bashir.

It’s one of those annoying things where they had a great idea for the relationship between Miles and Keiko, but it didn’t work out because it’s hard to fit an ongoing domestic drama into a SF adventure series/morality play/political thriller, especially when one of the people involved is a guest actor who’s only contracted for a few appearances in any given year, and you’re at the dawn of the era of serialised TV. So it was an uphill struggle to even do the story in the first place and it peters out eventually.

A big part of the problem, I feel is that a significant and loud portion of the fandom saw Keiko as a scold who got in the way of space adventures, and when Miles and Julian became friends she was very much seen as “her indoors” who was going to spoil the boys’ fun in their minds.

Apparently, they asked her if she wanted to be on the show full time, and she turned them down… :woman_shrugging:

Steve Shives did a video about how Chao got treated by some fans…
