Amazon.co.uk Review

Star Trek: Voyager, the first Trek spin-off to be made without any input at all from Gene Roddenberry, made its debut in 1995 and quickly established itself both as markedly different from cosmic cousin Deep Space Nine and as the successor to The Next Generation. Despite a lack of originality in its premise (Lost in Space anyone?), Voyager was nonetheless often a bigger ratings success than any of its predecessors.

In the first series the crew of the Federation vessel Voyager must somehow try to get back home after being catapulted unwittingly to the far-flung Delta Quadrant (in the opening "Caretaker"). The ghost of Katherine Hepburn lives on in Kate Mulgrew's forceful Captain Janeway, who has an equivocal relationship with the Maquis renegade who becomes her first officer, Chakotay (Robert Beltran). Tim Russ gives possibly the franchise's first fully realistic (yawn) portrayal of a Vulcan, and to enhance the alien quotient there's cuddly chef Neelix (Ethan Phillips). Garret Wang must have drawn short straw for character development, since his Harry Kim is never imbued with any of the drama of rebellious pilot chum Tom Paris (Robert Duncan McNeill), who was later to get the series' only romance with the seemingly inescapable resident half-breed B'Elanna Torres (Roxann Dawson). Right from the start, though, the fans' favourite character was the deadpan funny man role of Robert Picardo's nameless holographic Doctor. Jerry Goldsmith's graceful theme always opens the show in style. --Paul Tonks

5.0 out of 5 stars Its finally on DVD!!, 12 Jun 2004
Iv'e been waiting for Voyager to arrive on DVD for years, and its finally here! On first impressions, the Box Set is well presented in a tough plastic case, with the STV, and Starfleet logo raised up on the front of the box, with a chrome like effect on them. Inside you get a set of 6 DVD's, which are set in a clear plastic mount (like half a CD case) which have been stuck together along one edge, which keeps the collection together nicely. The whole collection is found inside a cardboard sleeve with the STV logo on it. The presentation is very tidy, and well designed in my opinion. As for the DVD's themselves, they are all presented in Dolby Digital, and have superb picture quality, which is something you should expect for £55. The claimed "Missing" episodes, are actually from season two, but were broadcast with season one, so you can dispell all of those claims that its not the complete series. The scripting was as fantastic as ever, with the mix of drama, and comedy, with romance in the later seasons, is an all round entertaining series, and one of the best to come from the franchise. The extras are what i have come to expect from Paramount, with two full ST: TOS episodes, and over an hour of interviews, and behind the scenes of Voyager. I have no complaints and am 100% satisfied with the product, and will be purchasing the rest as they become available! All in all, Fantastic!!

5.0 out of 5 stars I beg to differ, 18 April 2005
By Mr. S. Moore "Stevie" (Sheffield, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I just have to post this to explain that NO EPISODES ARE MISSING from the season one box set of Voyager. Paramount did make extra episodes to be included in season one, but it was decided that these episodes would be held back for season two. Every episode that actually aired as season one episodes are in the season one box set. There are no episodes missing from this set whatsoever! As to the actual viewing order of episodes in season 1, they are in the original order of which they were aired. Some episodes you may watch were actually made after the episode that follows. But these are in order of air date! Hope this clarifys a few things for those people who may have been put off buying this(and other)boxset due to a review which was totally innacurate! A great buy, i'm glad to say i have all Star Trek box sets so far and can't wait for Enterprise next month!

5.0 out of 5 stars Top marks for a great boxset, 7 Dec 2005
By Mr. M. Littledyke "matthew10691" (England) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
Having enjoyed watching Voyager again it is great to finally get hold of this amazing boxset after only ever having had voyager on vhs before. Season 1 had it flows but tell me of any Star Trek series that didnt have to prove its self in the beginning dont be alarmed that their are a few episodes missing as they had originally been held back for season 2 when it was first aired in the states back in 1995 so they will be in the next boxset. I found the extras interesting did you know that Kate Mulgrew was'nt originally cast to play Janeway also they are 2 episodes of the original Star Trek series there.

a great boxset and a must have for any fan!!!
