Should there have been a Voyager episode or two after they got home? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

I get it: Voyager was about Voyager's voyage and there's a strong case to be made that it ended exactly when it should have.

But on the other hand, every time I watch "Endgame" it strikes me how incredibly abrupt the actual ending feels. Do you think the show should have spent some time depicting the crew's experiences of arriving home?

Not positively received. Actually quite the opposite.

I bought it in hardcover, then bailed on the entire Christie Golden Voyager series on the sequel.

A horrible return with heartbreaking situations for just about every beloved character.

I don’t truly blame tie-in writer Golden, or even Peter David who got tagged with responsibility for the most egregious plot and character point in the Relaunch universe version of the Voyager follow-up.

Paramount itself clearly had but dire restrictions on positives for the returning crew that only came off when Kirsten Beyer was allowed to undo the damage in her Voyager Full Circle series when she took the helm from Golden.
