Did you watch this and if so did you enjoy it more than his other episodes?

I watched the whole ST TNG series with my (ex) boyfriend (he watched with me all "Dallas" and "Knots" with me...), and if there was one thing I couldn´t bear, was Q and the actor playing him. He was a pain in the a**. One question that may be off-topic but since you also know the other spin-offs, you might answer me about one thing: If I had to keep on watching the series, which one should I choose, "Deep Space 9" or "Voyager"? All opinions will be welcome and you´ll be invited to one round at the holodeck... (Don´t say I shouldn´t watch "Enterprise", I already did, but I´ll post about it on its thread...)

I know that Deep Space 9 gets praised for it's writing and character work but I haven't ever seen much of it. I was a big fan of Voyager at the time and loved Captain Janeway. I mentioned earlier in this thread that part of the reason I didn't like DS9 is that it was set on a sort of space station, so they weren't really exploring new worlds, I guess they were exploring the characters that visited the station. I think I will rewatch Voyager next as I was a fan, but I have until May before the new series so maybe I could do DS9 too.I watched the whole ST TNG series with my (ex) boyfriend (he watched with me all "Dallas" and "Knots" with me...), and if there was one thing I couldn´t bear, was Q and the actor playing him.

A month ago I would have said jump straight to Voyager. Like Alexis, I'm a big fan of the show and Janeway, as well as the brilliant character by the name of Seven.
I watched and enjoyed DS9 in the 90s, but not in the same league as Voyager. It was much darker and sometimes it felt boring.
When Ensign Ro came into TNG I suddenly had this thirst to learn more about eh Bajorans and I knew that was a focus on DS9, then we started to meet Cardassians in TNG and my thirst grew stronger.
So with a new found curiosity in my I decided to watch DS9 again and so far I've been completely blown away by how addictive its become. The characters on DS9 feel much more real than those on the starship, there's so much more diversity on DS9 that it doesn't matter about flying around space discovering new worlds. There's much more depth and the ensemble cast of characters are what's making it feel still fresh some 20 years later. There's more continuity too which is a bonus for this type of story-telling.
In a way DS9 still has that 'uncharted' feel TNG has has because of a stable wormhole, but that will be explained more in the pilot.
I would definitely recommend doing DS9 next and then finish off with Voyager.
I've also been (secretly) hoping that Alexis might find his way back to DS9 and I honestly believe he will see it in a different light to what he saw when he first watched the show.

I think it was somewhere in season four that I decided I would do DS9. The season three finale is connected with DS9, I'm not sure if you remember that, I know I didn't until I watched it again.

Hmmm. Interesting comments. I also love Garnet...Kate Mulgrew, and started Season 1 over 1 year ago, but I struggled with it and finally I postponed it "sine díe". Maybe I´ll begin with ST DP9 now, and might alternate both in the future...
SciFi shows have such a different timing nowadays. Shorter seasons, shorter episodes, shorter (if any) openings...I was disappointed with "Falling Skies" but I could watch it all the way (despite my feelings toward the TNT "dictators" who killed the "Dallas" memory).
If we consider SciFi also Horror / Paranormal / Zombies / Clones, I´ve recently watched the first Seasons of "Extant" and the original Swedish "Humans", "Stranger Things", and "The Whisperers" (already canceled), the first 2 of "The Strain", "Under the Dome", "Wayward Pines", "Orphan Black", and "Helix". Oh and I also watch the superhero series "The Flash" and "Supergirl". But even so, I miss a good old space opera...

Well I really bombing through season 3 it's so good! I loved Yesterday's Enterprise. It felt very dark and kind of like the new films in that way. And of course good to see Tasha back again. lol The episode that followed, The Offspring was really surprising too. I have to admit I got all emotional with Data being a parent and then losing his child. And what a shock that his daughter, Lal could actually feel, even if it was for such a short time.
Data is still my favourite character, I love when we get to see things from his perspective. He has so much logic and sees things for what they are without need to sugar coat or "protect" people's feelings. He understands so much, but not feelings so it makes sense that he would be like that.

This one really took me by surprise. I was absolutely loving the story and seeing Tasha Ya again and then when it ended on Guinan asking about what Tasha Ya was like I got this wave of emotion and shivers down my spine, like I'd lost a loved one and I was about to reminisce about the old times

No I have got to the point I cant stand him. He basically flies the ship at 17! He magically knows everything and saves the day because he recognises shit like random bleeps in interference from Ferengi ships that is actually an encoded message from Riker simulating some random music they heard 3 days earlier.

I think she is first introduced in the movie FIRST CONTACT and then she appears in Voyager after that,
I love the Borg because there's simply no reasoning with them
