I seriously have been thinking over the past 24 hours since the airing of Caretaker last night. Also the Voyager Special afterwards also indicated that I will miss Voyager. It never really hit me until last night that in all seriousness that I never fully realized that in 2 days that Voyager will air its last and final episode. Afterwards there WILL be no Voyager movie probably because people will want to got to a Star Trek movie with a ship named Enterprise. I grew up with Voyager its the only Star Trek series that I watched all the way for the past 7 years. I was 10 when it aired and I have tohonest that after the first episode I stayed home so I could watch it again 7 years ago.
Also 'Enterprise' will premier in the ned of 2001 however I will be able to see the first couple of episodes, but three days after I graduate in June of 2002 I will be going into the navy so won't be able to watch the entire series like I have with Voyager. Also lets get into Series 6 because after Series 5, Ihardly think that anyone will want a 6th series.

As a fan who grew up with TNG when it aired back in 1987, I know how you feel. But at least you should have good memories of the series to take to the open seas. And not seeing series 5 is a damn good thing... it won't annoy you as much as it will annoy others here.

I know how you feel Matrix. Voyager first aired when I was 9 years old. It seemed like seconds ago. I saw EVERY single episode with the exception of 'The Thaw' which I heard was a crappy episode anyways. *sigh* I was still living up north in Wisconsin when Voyager first came on. I wish I still lived there now. *sniff* good bye Voyager! When Enterprise comes on, you'll never hear a continuity complaint from us again!

Actually, IMHO "The Thaw" was part of the elite "upper half" of season two episodes, as distinguished from the banal "lower half" (Threshold, Tattoo, Twisted or Cold Fire, anyone?)

I liked Voyager from the beginning. I will feel the same sting I felt when TNG and DS9 went off the air. Although we are 20 episodes behind the US, so I'll prolly see "Endgame" in eight or nine months from now.

I've been with Star Trek since TOS .. Been watching star trek since I was 7 years old (1977). It is the end of ONE MORE SAGA - only to pass the torch.

Series V is the next one; will certainly not be the last !!

I'm also finding it hard to believe that the end of Voyager is tomorrow. I started on TNG and have seen almost every episode from TNG ,DS9, and Voy the first time they ran. Voyager like TNG and DS9 before it will be missed.

For me after watching it, I realized that next Wednesday I will be watching not a new one but an old one I already saw. There will be no more seasons so the one I saw a few days ago is THE last.
------------------ The whole concept of Survivor is get your average Joe and put him/her on the show and see how they react. Afterwards even though they did not win they make money by appearing on shows. There is no point in having to win a million dollars! They will make that amount in 2 months after appearing on 100 different shows!

I grew up on The Original Series and the movies featuring the original cast. The first movie I ever saw in a theater was Star Trek III: The Search for Spock. I was about four or five at the time. My mother was (and is) your average Star Trek fan. We'd occassionally watch the old episodes together.
I got hooked into Star Trek big time when I saw The Next Generation's "Time Squared" (during my fourth grade year). I stayed a devoted fan of The Next Generation right to the end of the series, and I was saddened to see it go. I watched Deep Space Nine get its start, but I didn't follow the first or second seasons. At this time, I started being the ultimate "band nerd" and had no time to watch. I started watching Deep Space Nine and Voyager with the same fervor as The Next Generation when they started, but I had to stop watching again as I entered college. My first roommate was the biggest anti-Trekker I had ever met.
Since being in college, I've alternated between being able to watch the shows to being too busy. But I did catch the last few episodes of Voyager, and I will miss it, too. I don't think it was the strongest of the Trek series, but I think it was still good television on many occassions. I will miss it. However, in the meantime, I can catch up with the reruns.

I can bash Series V all I want Jeff, but I'll still watch it from time to time. It is a Star Trek series after all. But don't expect me to like it if the continuity is screwed.

More people crying about continuity. Its a TV show, enjoy it. Personally, they will only loose my attention if they state that Kirk was a chick, other then that, dont whine about continuity, it makes you sound in desprate need of a life.
