Voyager, hands down. I like most of the characters, I love the setting, it's basically a big family trying to get home.

I'm here for Voyager for the same reasons. I like the characters, the setting is great to explore situations and themes away from the federations protection and influence. I also like 'found family' themes, the crew being one big family that depends on, uplifts and supports one another is just nice

Voyager: Just hearing the intro is comforting.

I don't know if it's anything specific about Voyager itself or just the part of my life it takes me back to, but it's definitely my "Comfort Trek".

The Voyager theme song is by far my most favorite, probably of any TV series. I haven't seen the whole series yet, but I like it a lot so far. Still, I think DS9 is my favorite.

The Voyager intro music goes HARD.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

Voyager is maybe my least favorite Trek (I still like it a lot!) but it's got my vote for "the most comfortable" because it always feels so low-stakes. Ironically I have probably seen more Voyager than any of the others for that reason.

Voyager and TNG. Best shows for putting me into a good mood.

Also opting in for Voyager. I swear, I can feel my pulse drop as soon as the Intro starts.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

Man, I'm just preaching to the choir here it seems, but yeah, Voyager as well.

"Yankees, in six games" -- "One Small Step" is comfort food for me. A close second is "The Siege of AR-558"
