 - A poor ending to a great showWhile the first half of Season Seven had some great episodes there was a downward spiral that started mid-season. Too much focus was on Seven and the Doctor which is disappointing to those of us who also like the other characters. The finale was a major letdown. Borg? Been done before ad nauseum in other episodes. Time travel? Again, "Timeless", "Future's End" and "Year of Hell" did it better. The Chakotay/Seven "relationship"? What were they thinking? The only saving grace to the finale was Mulgrew's performance as both the older and younger Janeway. While I purchased all six of the other seasons I'm letting this one go. I may pick it up used down the line just to complete the collection but there's no hurry. Rating:  - Now we lay it down to sleepWatch for Marina Sirtis (Deanna Troi from STTNG) in her HOT bathing suit! YUMMY! A lot of dull episodes this time around. Voyager makes it home...but with a price. What can be done to make things right? Rating:  - It's the last season, but goes out with a 25 episode BANG!This is it. The final season of Star Trek: Voyager. With Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, and The Next Generation, the later seasons suffered a little bit in the writing areas due to the writers moving to a new show. Voyager did not have this problem since "Enterprise" didn't premiere until the fall AFTER Voyager ended. The Seventh season employs some of the best writing and storytelling of the entire series. The finale is a great episode, but not perfect. There are two multi-part stories in this season that are absolutely superb. Voyager couldn't go out without bringing back the saboteur Seska for a final hurrah. Dwight Schultz reprises his role as Barclay again, and Marina Sirtis makes an appearance. The Doctor makes a controvertial holonovel. Harry Kim takes his first command and Q returns again. Another great season. Highly recommend it to Star Trek fans and others alike. Best Episodes: Unimatrix Zero: Part II, Imperfection, Drive, Repression, Critical Care, Inside Man, Nightingale, Flesh and Blood, Shattered, Workforce: Parts I and II, Human Error, Q2, Author Author, Homestead, Renaissance Man, Engame Rating: - Star Trek fans will appreciate the extra featuresIf you're considering buying Season 7 of Voyager you're most likely a fan of the show, so I won't bore you with my opinions of the various episodes except to say that the overwhelming majority were well written with excellent performances by the cast. Speaking of the performances, I really appreciated the extra feautures (especially the commentary of Robert Picardo) as they give fans a brief inside look at the actors and their feelings about their performances and the show itself. The other features about various creation and production aspects of the show were also worth watching. Season 7 is my first DVD set from Voyager (I'm collecting DS9 and have the first three years). I skipped to season 7 of Voyager as I was overseas during its airing and missed many episodes. It was great to see some 'new' episodes. I enjoyed Voyager 7 so much that I'm putting my DS9 collection on hold am now working backwards on Voyager...next up Season 6. Rating: - simply buy it!!If yo are reading those reviews you most likely watched and did not missed the other ones. Maybe its not really the best one but this one ends the story so do not think simply get it, you will not regret.
