Neither was ever "on" Voyager.
"Timeless" is the episode directed by LeVar Burton, and he also makes an appearance.
?????????
As... far as I remember... they
were on the ship??? Were they not?
2) Barclay wasn't on the E-E, and neither was Troi. Reggie Bee was working on the Pathfinder Project to get in touch with Voyager. Reggie Bee wasn't on Voyager, per se, he was unsurprisingly, on the holodeck.
3) Geordi shows up as the Captain of the USS Challenger in Timeless.
Okay, I didn't see Barclay on the E-Enterprise. But Troi? Unless it was a hologram all along, yes she was??? I believe VOY took place within the time span of from FC to N.
And I didn't like Troi or Barclay appearing in VOY. They were fine in TNG when they had their own characters to play off of, but they had nobody to create any dynamic with on VOY, because it was basically just them together. Always felt forced to me. And I think having Troi in both Endgame and TATV would have been too much!
I didn't like Barclay at all. The man talks too much. He's just really annoying, especially in TNG 7's Genesis episode where he was talking super fast.
For my tastes, we had more than enough of Troi in TNG. I wish she'd never appeared in VOY but at least her appearances there, as lousy as they were, weren't the same level of utter crap that her appearance on ENT was.
Marina Sirtis, if you happen to be reading this, please don't be offended but...
I'm glad they picked her of all others to be in TATV but it didn't really look like her at all. She looked more like a cosplayer. Mind you, Troi never helped the ENT characters. She was just helping Riker through the Pegasus stuff. Plus, the finale was the only episode of ENT she was in.
Troi could've helped with the Endgame story.
Though I liked Troi best in VOY and FC (or should I say, I actually liked her in VOY and FC) WHY would you want her in Endgame. What for? Who cares? It's not TNG, it's VOY. Enough with the shoehorning, the universe is not that small.
Now some of this is spillover rage on my part because of TATV which makes me want to vomit.
Why would you want freakin' Barclay in Endgame! But I guess it doesn't matter to the people who actually like Barclay.
And you're right. It's
not TNG. But it is kind of interesting when characters from one series make appearances in other series. It wasn't TNG when the producers and writers thought, "Hey! For the fans, let's have Sirtis, Burton, and Shultz reprise their roles in VOY!" But they were there, and I'm glad they were.
The Barclay and Troi stuff was a waste. They were annoying in TNG.
Okay, if I watch TNG outside of Season 7, I'd probably see whateveryone was talking about when they complain about Troi stating the obvious. But I would still like her. She's my eye candy, hence why she's on my avatar.
Would have loved to see her in more episodes, but Pathfinder and Lifeline (And I think she was in one other one but I can't be sure) were great and she added a ton to each.
Agreed! If I was a VOY writer, she'd be in a lot more episodes.
Inside Man.
Yes Queen of the Obvious, that's a good description. It frustrated me that the character was so much more likable in FC and VOY.
And TNG season 7 and Generations.
Marriage changes a woman.
Besides, what was thing in TNG about her mother and how the Betazoidian sexdrive tripples when they enter middle age?
Her husband was probably running scared.
Dark Page?
Troi will always be my favourite character in Trek ever, it didn't help Marina Sirtis when the writers made her intelligent one week -then stupid the next 4. As soon as she wore proper uniform she became brainy..
Yeah, mine too! I just wish Genesis wasn't the only episode she had to watch the bridge.
