Pike Place Market is an iconic marketplace located in Seattle, Washington. It is one of the oldest continuously operating farmers markets in the United States and attracts both locals and tourists. Within the market, there is a popular shop known as the Pike Place Magic Shop. The Pike Place Magic Shop is a unique and captivating store that specializes in selling magic tricks, illusions, and other mystical items. It is a haven for both amateur and professional magicians and provides a wide range of products for all skill levels. The shop is known for its friendly and knowledgeable staff who are passionate about magic.
I know everyone will say Voyager is a step down from DS9 but Voyager and DS9 are pretty different in what they're going for. Voyager is much more in line with TOS and TNG as far as an episodic adventure of the week type thing where is DS9's setting is much different as well as the serialized nature of the Dominion War. Voyager can be enjoyable if you approach it with the right mindset rather than try to compare it to DS9.
Her flip flopping between we represent Starfleet we need to uphold the prime directive versus to hell with the prime directive we wanna go home could ve been a better arc if it was a gradual shift, but instead it s back and forth depending on what that particular episode needs. The Animated Series sits in a weird place where it s basically more TOS featuring a lot of the original actors voicing their characters, but doing things that wouldn t be practical in live-action.
The shop is known for its friendly and knowledgeable staff who are passionate about magic. They are always willing to offer guidance and assistance to customers interested in learning and performing magic tricks. Whether you are a beginner looking for your first trick or an experienced magician seeking something more advanced, the staff at Pike Place Magic Shop will have something to suit your needs.

I think I’m caught up on current Trek or at least SNW and Lower Decks, seen TNG many times.
Trying just for quality not chronological or anything

Member Oct 26, 2017 17,401Voyager (and tbh basically any other Star Trek) will be a step down from DS9, but it is the logical next step.

Member Oct 27, 2017 202 South Portland, ME Based on some of the threads here I was under the impression she’s a criminal of the highest orderThere is a lot of Janeway hate on ERA. She is doesn't always make the best decisions and some out right bad ones, but overall she is a good character. She is much better than Archer, yet she gets more hate. Huh, I wonder why?
Voyager also has the Doctor and Seven, both are top tier Star Trek characters.

Star Trek: Defiant is Worf-led crew of outcasts (some real surprises among them). The first Star Trek comic book crossover ever just wrapped up in Day of Blood and was excellent. Its overall theme was anti-fascism. Plus this is all in continuity.

Member Nov 2, 2017 7,597You should definitely watch Voyager.
Overall, it wasn't as consistent but I firmly believe it has some of the best Star Trek episodes. The crew is good, Captain is great.

Member Oct 25, 2017 4,604Of the big 3 (TNG, DS9, and Voyager), I think Voyager is the weakest by a fairly large margin. But I still think it's a good show with a lot of fun episodes. Enterprise isn't a bad show either but it has some really low lows in my view that make it harder to recommend.

The Animated Series sits in a weird place where it's basically "more TOS" featuring a lot of the original actors voicing their characters, but doing things that wouldn't be practical in live-action. But at only 22 half hour episodes, it's a pretty light time investment for those that have already gone through the original show.
Though it's not really the one to watch after finishing up DS9. Might as well stick with production order and move on to Voyager.

Member Oct 28, 2017 799Yep, answer is Voyager but it doesn't really start getting good for a few seasons.
I can't say much good about Enterprise. There's some good episodes and a dog.
The Discovery theme song is one of the best in all of Star Trek. That is the only positive thing I can say.

The Fallen Oct 25, 2017 17,615 TorontoWatch Voyager then when you're done with that you can watch its sequel series, the animated Star Trek Prodigy which Netflix recently saved.

Member Oct 27, 2017 3,791 Halifax, NSHonestly Voyager gets way more shit than it deserves. It's not perfect, but i think it stands out because its the most "well produced" Star Trek still within the general TNG era of design.
My primary problem with Janeway is how inconsistently written she was. Her flip flopping between "we represent Starfleet we need to uphold the prime directive" versus "to hell with the prime directive we wanna go home" could've been a better arc if it was a gradual shift, but instead it's back and forth depending on what that particular episode needs.
The flaw of going back to a more episodic formula compared to the very serialized back half of DS9.
But it's still a good show, probably better than Enterprise overall.
VorpalNonsense
Member Oct 25, 2017 14,204So you've already hit TNG, DS9, SNW and LD. Good!
Between the three poll options, I say Enterprise. It's a totally different era, a lot more fresh than Voyager, and it's interesting to watch the growing pains of their early exploration. They're still figuring a lot out, and that's fun. Archer feels different than the captains that follow him, and I think that's a good thing. Starts a bit slow but the show only gets better as it goes on, the second half is better than the first. I find it the most interesting option of the three provided. Also, there is a doggy on the ship.
I think the first three seasons of Discovery complete an interesting arc that has its ups and downs, despite new trek very much still trying to find its footing. (Although concluding that the following season 4 felt very "well. what now?" to me and they started losing cast, it's clear why the show is ending with an upcoming season 5.) But season 1 hits some intriguing plotlines you might recognize from DS9, season 2 ties into SNW, and season 3 takes us to places Trek has never seen before. So if you're okay with the tone of this series (which is more melodrama and mystery boxes than usual), it could be of interest to you. But that will be very taste-specific. It's a very mixed bag, but it's full of ideas.
Voyager largely feels like reheated TNG leftovers that sat out for too long and got soggy. It's got highlights (like the Doctor and Seven) but seven years of that is a long time, following a watch list could improve the experience a lot. Most of the series is like lukewarm porridge. I only ever rewatch a small handful of episodes. Chair warmer of a series that never really lived up to its romantic premise.
I think I’m caught up on current Trek or at least SNW and Lower Decks, seen TNG many times.

Reviews for "The Best Souvenirs to Purchase at Pike Place Matic Shop"
1. Sarah - 1 star - I was really disappointed with Pike Place Magic Shop. The staff was extremely rude and unhelpful when I asked for recommendations. They seemed more interested in talking amongst themselves than assisting customers. Additionally, the selection of magic tricks was severely lacking and most of them were outdated. I would not recommend this shop to anyone looking for a magical experience.
2. John - 2 stars - I had high expectations for Pike Place Magic Shop, but unfortunately, it fell short. The shop was cramped and poorly organized, making it difficult to navigate and browse the products. The prices were also quite high compared to other magic shops I've visited. The staff seemed disinterested and lacked knowledge about the products they were selling. Overall, it was a disappointing experience and I would not go back.
3. Emily - 1 star - Pike Place Magic Shop was a huge letdown for me. The atmosphere in the shop was gloomy and uninspiring. The staff seemed bored and unenthusiastic, which affected my overall experience. The selection of tricks was limited, and most of them were run-of-the-mill items that can be found at any magic shop. I expected a unique and magical experience, but all I got was mediocrity. I wouldn't recommend this shop to anyone who is looking for a truly magical and exciting time.
4. Michael - 2 stars - Pike Place Magic Shop was underwhelming, to say the least. The shop lacked any sort of creativity or originality. The tricks and props on offer were generic and unimpressive. The staff didn't go out of their way to make the visit enjoyable, and their lack of enthusiasm was evident. The prices were also quite high for what was being offered. I would not recommend this shop to anyone looking for a truly magical experience.
