Was going to write a episode by episode review, but after watching two seasons, I changed my mind. I just don't care enough. This was the next Star Trek series after DS9, and was produced by the same producers: Rick Berman and Michael Piller, Like DS9, we have a very diverse, ensemble cast, including:
1. Janeway - Female captain
2. Tuvak - black Vulcan Security officer
3. Torres - female half-klingon/half-Human - Chief Engineer
4. The Doctor - Bald Medical Hologram
5. Neelix - Bald Talaxian Hybrid - Navigator
6. Tom Paris - Helmsman
7. Chakotay - Native American First Officer
8. Kes/Seven of Nine - Female Space Aliens
9. Harry Kim - Operations Officer
Unlike DS9, I didn't find the characters engaging. The actors were good, but there's no standout character like Picard or Odo/Quark/Kira. The stories were well written, but often seemed like retreads of previous Star Trek episodes.
Summary: A fine star trek show, but not my cup of tea. I'll stick to TNG, TOS and DS9. While I like Star Trek, - I'm not a Trekkie.
