Default Wow. Voyager's 3rd season sucked

I've Netflixed the entire ST Voyager run. Right now, I'm in the middle of the third season.

It sucked.

After the first couple, I began to wonder if I was too hard on Voyager. Now, in the third season, I've skipped as many episodes as I've watched. And, the ones I've watched I didn't really enjoy.

Future's End (I & II) and Macrocosm stand out as among the series' worst (behind Threshold). And, while there are a couple upcoming that I'm anxious to see again, it looks like a bleak future with season 3.

God I hope season 4 isn't this crappy...

Yeah, Future's End had potential (I kinda liked the parallels with Bill Gates and Ed Begley's character, actually, even though he was over the top), but it also had way too many flaws, especially the overall premise of that Future Federation Timecop guy determining that Voyager had to be destroyed, versus simply being prevented from doing whatever it was going to do that would cause the timefuck.

Sorry, my memory of those eps is rather sketchy....

Jebus... I still remember the very first time I watched TNG. I had never watched Star Trek before, my dad sat me down in front of the TV and explained how he watched this show when he was younger. Heh, that was my initiation into Trek, and here I am nearly 20 years later, still completley hooked..

That's exactly how I got into it too.

Macrocosm (the one with the giant virus) was funny. Especially the do-it-yourself Rambo(TM) kit in Main Engineering
