Id like to have seen it much more serialized too but, for me, of all the star trek casts I think Voyager had the best overall group in terms of characters{minus neelix}. The doctor, seven, tuvok,belanna,tom......I loved sisko and the scope,structure,complexity and serialization of ds9. But even it left something to be desired in its last season. Just wondering Jammer, do you own the ds9 and voyager dvd sets as well? Also-what is your favorite ssn on tng,ds9 and voyager. For me its ssn 3 of tng,ssn 4 and 5 of voyager, and 2.3. and 6 for ds9. Keep up the reviewing!! Jammer, why have you been so hard on Voyager?

Jammer dude, as long as it gets done, it gets done. People have low attention spans and even when you make stuff for free, they still squeal when you're not delivering on schedule. Fuck those bollockheads. Keep on truckin' my man! Woah!

When you're still in high school or college, three years seems like so much time has passed. A freshman would now be a senior. That's pretty crazy. But even with all the changes in my life the last three years, the time passage feels much less significant. I'm thinking it's probably that I've been in that same stage of life for so many years where I've been working my job, but I still don't have kids, so I'm not constantly reminded how different things are from year to year. Or maybe it's that adage where the older you get the faster time accelerates. Seriously, though, it is funny to think how relative three years can be.

We should all talk about all the milestones we've passed since the last time Jammer posted TNG reviews. "Yes, sir, sonny, I was in high school when Jammer last posted, now I'm retired." Just kidding, Jammer, I know you have a life. I enjoy the reviews whenever you can post them. @ Black Mage

This gives me an excuse to pull my dusty TNG DVDs off the shelf and view Season 5 all over again; but this time with the aid of your perspective on the eps. Hopefully by the time you finish the Season 7 reviews there will be another Sci-Fi oriented show on the air which will merit your attention. But even if that doesn't happen this site will remain an invaluable resource for Star Trek and BSG fans. Thanks again for all the tremendous reviews over the years! Thank you Jammer!

It is not a coincidence that BSG's ratings also started to fall in the 3d season when its moral/metaphysical themes became more clear. Unfortunately Brandon Adams you are right.
