Sisko seemed to do what Janeway should have, in that he frequently had to wrestle with a line between the rules and what was right. And in that sense, I liked him a lot. But he also annoyed me frequently.

I kinda wanted to like Janeway, but half the time she was so erratic you had to wonder if Starfleet has any mental health screening program in place to stop bipolars from getting in. Because they should.

I should also note that, for me, Voyager was the first Trek I really watched consistently. My Dad had some VHS tapes of the first series, but TNG and DS9 were both not aired on local affiliates. It was only when we got UPN that we could watch a Star Trek show, and as such, I'm often inclined to give it more leeway.

It's kind of like that "You never forget your first Doctor" thing with Doctor Who. And Hell, since I grew up on the movies, you could explain my predisposition to Kirk. Though I do admit he's a cheesier character.

But yeah, Janeway was basically manic-depressive because nobody seemed to know what to do with her. One minute, she was the last Bastion of Starfleet in a strange new frontier. The next, she was a wild cowboy who was every bit as "illogical" as Kirk and twice as volatile. Either would have worked, I think, but both can't.
And she was promoted to Vice Admiral.

He's better than Archer. I think he needs to channel more Shatner in his performance. The only time I felt it in the first reboot movie was when said "Spock............it'll work."

Janeway was a sanctimonious cow. She annoyed the hell out of me.

Picard all the way.

Apparently, that was a Netflix thing, not a Microsoft thing (surprisingly).

Still, it does suck ass that it's gone.

I don't have an Xbox, but accordingly to a friend, it's still available in the UK.

Apparently, you can have it back in the US?!?! - If they want you to. http://news.cnet.com/8301-1023_3-575...o-privacy-law/

Was that why they killed it in the first place? I didn't think that this would apply to the way it worked on Live.

Then again, I also would have thought the social stuff they already had on Netflix by the time this became law would violate it, so whatever.
