Voyager...



For the last several years, Brian and I have been watching series SciFi on DVD, working our way through an entire series, one episode at a time. We started several years ago with Babylon 5. Actually we started mostly because we'd watched 4 years of it on TBS, where it was shown every evening, but each time they played the final episode of the Shadow Wars plot line we'd miss it ... this happened several times and was frustrating, so we just decided to watch the whole thing on DVD. After Babylon 5 came Deep Space 9 (far better when watched all the way through like this than it initially seemed when it was actually on TV.) After Deep Space 9 came Farscape, and then Firefly. And finally, after Firefly came Voyager. Honestly, we didn't watch several of the Voyager episodes, they were so bad. And, last night when the opening of the final episode came on, which begins with the Voyager arriving at Earth, I was ready to turn it off after 30 seconds. "Well, they made it home! We're done. What's next?" It isn't a good sign when you don't really care if they ever make it home. Honestly I felt worse for the castaways on Gilligan's Island (those poor people) than I did the Voyager crew.

Not sure what's next. There's not really any Sci Fi left. So maybe Six Feet Under? Buffy?
