Jon's Brain Waves

StarTrek

We just recently finished watching the entirety of Star Trek: Voyager and it was so much better than I remembered it being. I think the reason why I was thinking it was the weakest of Treks was simply my age at the time it started airing, that and my various life events going on in 1998 (it was a very rough year for me and my family and I was 17). I had remembered it as being really weird and off-the-wall (which in some cases, it is. Threshold...), but it was nowhere near as wacky as I had thought it was. It was even clever and relavant to our modern times in a lot of ways.

Even “Threshold” was a fairly decent episode! Actually I really enjoyed it and found it to be a fun one indeed. The only real goofiness to it was the whole turned-into-lizards thing, but it was sort of an uncertainty principle thing, so fuck it, might as well be lizards, right?

Next up? The Next Generation. That is gonna be a much tougher one to watch, I think. I know the first couple of seasons have some seriously crumby episodes.
