Rise is an episode totally dedicated to the difficult relationship between the Vulcan Tuvok and the Talaxian Neelix (I don’t think I’ve ever written it, but Ethan Phillips always does a great job with his character!). Since the beginning of the series the two have always clashed a bit, with the first who cannot stand … More Star Trek: Voyager – S03E19, Rise
Here’s comes another so-and-so episode! Yep, Innocence is fairly dull, and, among other things, its protagonist makes a mistake that is not in line with his nature at all. I’m talking about the legendary Tuvok, but unfortunately the quality of the previous Vulcan-centric episode is nowhere to be found! Here’s the plot. Tuvok and the … More Star Trek: Voyager – S02E22, Innocence
This is a hard review to write! Investigations seems to start off in the worst possible way that is, with the equivalent of Fun with Flags with Sheldon Cooper in The Big Bang Theory: Neelix (let me repeat for the n-th time that Ethan Phillips is great, by the way) begins a daily TV program … More Star Trek: Voyager – S02E20, Investigations
It’s Kazon time again! This is the fourth Kazon episode, and so far they’ve all been good (the first three were: Caretaker, State of Flux and Initiations). Maneuvers starts really well but the ending is disappointing, a bit like previous week’s Cold Fire. I wonder why the writers messed it up so much, but probably … More Star Trek: Voyager – S02E11, Maneuvers
Tattoo is an episode that perhaps I shouldn’t have liked as much as I did, but I actually loved it, I found it extremely moving. Yet, on paper it’s a mediocre episode, I’m the first to admit it! On the other hand, the theme touched me deeply and when it ended I rewatched it immediately … More Star Trek: Voyager – S02E09, Tattoo
Season 2 really is a slow burn. This seventh episode is another bad one, and the plot could fit any sitcom taking place in a New York flat… It’s about jealousy! Unfortunately, Star Trek: Voyager doesn’t treat the theme in an intriguing way like, for example, The Next Generation’s Eye of the Beholder (Season 7). … More Star Trek: Voyager – S02E07, Parturition
We lost Kim again! You can’t keep that boy under control… After losing him during a funeral rite in Emanations and after having been dematerialized in the holodeck in Heroes and Demons, this time he finds himself in San Francisco, on planet Earth. At least, this seems to be the case, let’s say: at the … More Star Trek: Voyager – S02E05, Non Sequitur
Il fatto che mi sia piaciuto Space (in italiano il titolo è, tristemente e stupidamente, Sabotaggio alieno, invece della corretta traduzione Spazio) probabilmente indica che non ho alcuna capacità critica verso questa serie a causa di un gargantuesco effetto nostalgia che ha la meglio su tutto me stesso. Infatti questo episodio appare in tutte le … More The X-Files – S01E09, Sabotaggio alieno
Initiations is a good episode where both Chakotay and Neelix get to shine, highlighting how much Captain Janeway is under-using the valuable skills and knowledge of the Talaxian. In fact, Neelix, as soon as he has the opportunity to interact with the races that he knows well, does a better job than any other Voyager … More Star Trek: Voyager – S02E02, Initiations
Cathexis couldn’t start any worse: Janeway‘s in the holodeck (again! There’s nothing else to do on Voyager, the Heroes and Demons’ lesson hasn’t been learned) and participates in the most boring program of the history of Star Trek. Really, I can’t imagine anything worse than Janeway’s program, even though deep down it suits the gray … More Star Trek: Voyager – S01E13, Cathexis
