I had forgotten about the dog! It did seem very illogical to me, on an early spaceship especially.
I liked the theme song, but probably what I liked more were the opening credits with the history of ships and travel and exploration (particularly the point where you see it transitioning from our present to the obvious near-future, as the space station expands and the next-gen shuttle shows up, and then you get Cochrane's first warp ship from First Contact). It was, however, very different in tone from any other Trek credits.
I didn't even hate Neelix (I may be one of the few people who didn't!), but man, if we'd got to keep Kes I would have given him up quite happily. Somebody on Tumblr's got a bunch of screenshots put together that make it look like an AU with Captain Beverly Crusher, XO Commander Deanna Troi, and science officer Kathryn Janeway. (And notes say Dr. Ogawa as CMO.) It made me so happy. :)
