I agree with you, this was an outstanding episode and it was incredibly emotional, especially the scene between Geordi and Data. What also helped the emotion of the scene where the legendary starships being run through was the fact that for each ship we saw we knew about, the music for that series or movie was played for the brief time the ship was on screen. The Voyager theme song is quite beautiful and when performed by the French Horn ( a notoriously emotionally provocative instrument) , as it was here, really added to the sentimentality and nostalgia of the scene. Music absolutely was every bit another character in this season and it was spectacularly performed. Much credit to the music supervisor for this series. When I saw this the first time, and admittedly even now, that scene chokes me up, especially with Seven's line about Voyager being the place she was reborn and about it and the crew being family. Made more bittersweet by the fact that Ichep, the former Borg boy who was killed in Picard Season 1, was recovered by Voyager and Seven, and spent a season or so as a member of the Voyager's crew, as you'll see if you choose to watch it. Seven and Ichep in Picard season 1 will hit you harder after you see Voyager. He'll become a meaningful character to you and Seven's tears and anguish at having to kill him in Picard season 1 will make more sense. Great reaction. Like you with every reunion in this season I was excited, pumped, and overjoyed! These last few episodes only get better and better culminating in a perfect ending. I'm excited to watch the reactions!
Looking forward to them, will be watching 7 and 8 tonight so can't wait to see what they have in store for us. I do eventually plan on watching Voyager, likely after TOS as I do want to familiarise myself with Kirk and Spock and see where it all started :) Thank you and glad you enjoyed the reaction :))
@@NovelReactionslong time Trek fan here, watched TOS reruns with my dad in the 70’s, saw the OG movies in the theater, and saw TNG that I recorded on VHS to watch after work. Never did see Voyager until 2016 or so and it became my favorite. I don’t know what it is about it, but the fact of them being cut off and on their own, plus Janeway as captain, has landed it as my no 1. Unlike TNG there’s not a lot of callbacks from Voyager to TOS, there’s more connection to TNG in it. I can certainly see your point of wanting to see TOS, but would say Voyager is great. If you do go TOS be aware that the order is different depending on which way you look at it, filming vs release order.
You absolutely will, I've been meaning to make a quick post in the community tab. Life is just extremely busy for me at the moment and I may not be able to record at all soon. Could be a month, may be less but may be longer. I'm far far from done with my channel either way :)
I literally felt like Geordi when I first saw Data/Lore/B4/Soong scene, especially how perfect Brent still is with each personality.

Man, they are giving you grief with this one. 😣
That they are, comes with the territory though lol.
Definitely watch voyager, its ending may or may not have anything to do with the ending of picard
Will we see reactions to 7-10?
