I loved the Voyager series in fact actually I think it was pretty much the best Star Trek yet... But saidly I missed like almost the entire last few months of episodes (I think the last one I saw was when 3 of the crew infultrated the borg and got assimilated then deassimilated...)
What happened? In my San Diego (where i live) they haven't been replaying the episodes so now it looks like I'll never know what happened...
All I atleast want to know is did they get back to earth?
and just a second question: how come they couldn't remove all the borg stuff from Seven of Nine but they could with Janeway and Tuvok when they were assimilated, not including Picard when he was assimilated...Shouldn't they atleast have a similar eye piece or something like Seven of Nine...?

These are all good questions. And some answers will contain spoilers so.... $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ Okay...the episode you speak of was the season finale and premiere for seasons 6 and 7 respectively. Since you live in San Diego, I've no idea why you would miss out on the entire 7th season. But to answers your mosr dying question is that they did get back home. How they did, I'm not telling, but the episode did have some time travel in it.
As for removing any Borg implants from Torres, Tuvok, and Janeway...I don't remember them mentioning if they did or not or even how if it was possible.

Another example to use would be Picard. Anyway, there are two reasons for this. One, from the production standpoint, was because having Borg implants wasn't going to be a permenant part of Picard's character. (Or Janeway, Tuvok, and Torres'.) Two, Seven had been a Borg her entire life, while Picard and the others were only assimilated for a few days.

this is my personal take and hope on the situation:
Bev was a kickass doctor and by virtue of her skills was able to remove all the implants. The Doc simply didn't have that information programmed into him (why would it?) and thus was unable to perform the same thing. Hopefully, after the series finale, Sev visited Bev and got the rest of the implants removed.
As for Janeway, Tuvok, Torres; they went in with the idea of having them removed eventually, and took the right precautions.

Are you serious when you say this is the "best" Trek series? What about DS9 TOS and TNG? Voyager comes in fourth on my list of favorite Trek series.
Posted by Veers (Member # 661) on :
Oh, no, not this discussion.
(But DS9 is no doubt the best series! Just because it dared to discuss issues, and VOY just had the weekly anomaly/attack on ship/Seven in love storyline.

Yeah actually my list of favorite Trek series goes like this:
TOS DS9 & TNG (tie!) The Movies The Animated Series Early Voyages comics New Frontier novels Challenger novels by Diane Carey Starfleet Academy comics Phase II The unmade Assignment Earth spinoff Mork & Mindy (because Kirk was in it, its canon) Homeboys in Outer Space Enterprise
