I have finished watching Star Trek Next Generation and Deep Space 9 following a friend's recommendation. I enjoyed both shows and started watching the other one, Star Trek Voyager.

So far, I'm not finding it as enjoyable as the other two. I want to try to see it through the eyes of someone who enjoys the show, maybe it will also help me understand why it feels different somehow.

I think DS9 was pretty developed already by the end of TNG, so once it started there wasn't that much left to figure out. This can be seen by the TNG crew visiting DS9 towards the end. TNG, however, felt a little more uncertain in the first season in that the actors didn't have their characters nailed down yet, and it shows.

I suspect that Voyager might be a bit more like TNG in this regard - the concept was a bit more uncertain when they started. However, it does improve massively as it moves on.

I for one really like the temporal war storyline. And 7of9 is a great addition even if the writers' intent was mainly that of providing boobage.
