People can talk shit about Voyager all they like (and some of it is deserved) but I can honestly say when I heard the first few notes of the theme I honestly felt like I was home. TNG, DS9, the original, Voyager, Enterprise, they all have their own places in my heart.
Well, except for Enterprise. That theme song just did not fit with the rest of the Trek universe. But put on TOS, TNG, DS9, Voyager, Strange New Worlds, hell even Picard, and I'll get all teary eyed.
Voyager this season, DS9 last season, the recent crossover with Strange New Worlds, the Lower Decks crew really gels well with established Trek casts and scenarios 😊
meanwhile they are talking about doing a soft reboot on star trek, getting rid of Alex Kurtzman... scrapping picard, discovery, keeping lower decks and protogy... canceling accdnemy and titan since non of the networks, marketing companies, and such want it... can't even find toy companies to back them. And going back to an older style like DS9, voyager, and such.
@@jceggbert5 SNW is on the chopping block apparently. essentially they are talking about getting rid of all star trek "cannon" involving Disco, Picard, and such, but keeping lower decks. And resetting back to "TNG/DS9/Voy" and even getting rid of the destruction of romulas.
@@jenniferstewarts4851who is saying this? SNW has been very well received by critics and fans. Sounds more like the wishes of those disgruntled fans who hate newer Trek than anything credible.
Even though I try not to take Lower Decks too seriously, just the image of Voyager back on Earth with the theme playing in the background like that... I gotta admit, I couldn't help getting a little choked up.
For me, DS9 and Voyager are the best spin-offs ever. I'm always happy when it comes to such episodes. This shows me that the Star Trek I like still exists. Lower Decks is always at its best when they show the old Star Trek in one way or another. But always respectful. Thank you for that.🖖
@@sanhcman666 Enterprise has been a good series. But the viewership was not what they had imagined. Maybe if Paramount had had more patience back then and maybe improved the concept a little, similar to Voyager, then it might have worked.
@@sanhcman666fans don't change, some part always hates on the new stuff because it's not like the old. That's not to say there is no valid criticism when new shows are made but a part of the fanbase is always going to be unhappy.

The love for classic Trek is real, and seeing my favorite ships brought back with such care and love, makes me feel like I've come home.

I work in a museum and there's the moment where he says "are you chewing gum???" Gum is a huge no no in museums and to know it's still an issue in the future cracks me up.
I wonder what other intrepid class ships are still out in service, Cerritos is technically older than Voyager, so it's entirely possible that ships like the Bellerophon, Intrepid, Jefferson etc. Could all still be out and about.
On a now defunct mission from early on in in Star Trek Online, they mention USS Intrepid going missing, and Voyager is still in service in that setting, so in some cannons there are still Intrepid class ships running around
@@peridoodle2644 true though STO isn't canon in any way, that aside though the existence of Voyager - A as a refit to the intrepid could mean that the regular intrepid class was refitted after voyager returned, though it's worth noting that the U.s.s. intrepid was present in the battleground Enterprise was meant to group up with to engage the scimitar.
It's only been a few years since the end of the Dominion War, so I am sure that there are still a lot of Intrepid class ships still in service. VOYAGER is the special case, so I guess it was decommissioned early in its life cycle in order to become a museum piece.
Voyager also had all it's delta quadrent tech from it's 8 years there. Systems enchanced with Borg tech, upgrades the crew made to it's sensors and other systems, temporal technology such as the Doctor's mobile emitter. Starfleet would've wanted to get all that tech studied in detail leap frogging starfleet technology decades ahead of what it should be so they would've had to decommissioned it to get that tech first then made it a museum piece.@@dswynne
Ah the Flagship of Empress Janeway, First of Her Name, Destroy of the Delta Quadrant, Smiter of...whatever annoyed her that day more than most, Drinker of Coffee(Black). As you lay prostrate before her, your cities burning, your rivers running red with blood, remember...she makes a pretty mean Pie.
an exepriment to alter the warp field on the fly to make efficient and environmentally friendly to subspace. but new technology made left it in the dust.
Whatever happened to the tech on voyager? I mean, not many (if any?) use the bio neural network (or whatever the bio thing the gel packs and all that the ship used) and I don’t think we ever saw the ablative armour and transphasic torpedoes that were in the last episode, never mind the mobile emitter, I’m sure they would do their best to replicate all of these as the benefits would be immense, hell the defiant with ablative armour would be insane (or whatever is the current iteration of that class of vessel) never mind it being applied to the Cerritos and all other star fleet vessels, voyager was able to take on multiple borg vessels, never mind just shrugging off their collective effort, but using those torpedoes to one shot several vessels
Easy and simple to work out; the future tech Admiral Janeway brought with her was removed from Voyager due to "temporal prime directive" measures and stashed away somewhere (probably the Daystrom Station we saw in Picard S3); the bio neural gelpack systems, which Voyager was outfitted with when new, were downgraded over time to traditional isolinear systems due to lack of replacement packs available (cos, you know, Delta quadrant stuff, was also mentioned on an episode) as well as being susceptible to biological damage (again, a couple episodes where they were compromised, both by the macrovirus and Neelix's cheese); the Defiant had its' own ablative armour when first introduced in DS9 alongside its cloak, armourments and insanely overpowered warp core (seriously, pay attention at the back there!); and the doc's mobile emitter, despite being future tech, it was too well-known to be hidden by temporal prime directive rules by the time they got home, so most likely was studied & replicated and later versions of it were seen a few times in Picard S2 & S3. So, there you have your explanations...
@@Chiron84 - Oh please, how much do you want to bet that Admiral Janeway wanted it retired because she didn't want anybody else (especially Harry Kim) sitting in her chair now that they were back in the Federation?
@@daniels7907 you can just imagine Kim hiding in a bathroom till after hours, going over to the captains chair, dropping trousers, and just rubbing his bare ass all over that thing out of pure, concentrated spite

The only thing I disliked about that class was the nacelles moving up and down. It didn't make sense for them to have them. Having a them looked like large disadvantage that older ships had as way to stay out warp and implus . Another bad idea was the implus drive in the nacelles, a lucky shot and the warp your down and implus.

That chapter of SNW made me watch all lower decks.
Im a fan of Boimler, the ultimate gigachad of the federation.

"You treat her like a lady, and she'll always bring you home." Said of the grand starship Enterprise. But equally applicable to the USS Voyager.

It really is a beautiful ship. Still in my top 5 favorite starships in all of fiction
I know right?
Right?? Granted I'm not much of a Trekkie, but as far as I'm concerned, the Enterprise can suck it lol Voyager's the best one
Lower Decks really is tying all the series together nicely.
One of the most beautiful ships in the fleet, a masterpiece of Starfleet engineering
Now a masterpiece of multi-universal engineering.

No need to be embarrassed, Mariner. Your reaction was adorable!
"Voyager is a museum, on the grounds of the Presidio. On a clear morning, you can see Alcatraz from here..."
I just love the characters. Their personalities are so well written, and animation really has the perfect charm for this. Just love this show

Say what you will about the show but I still feel the ship itself is one of the most elegant looking in Trek.
