Day Of Honor is obviously (as honor is mentioned) an episode about the only (half) Klingon of the USS Voyager crew: B’Elanna Torres. It’s a story of character growth, with a not-so-trivial secondary plot in which the few survivors of a population ravaged by the Borg, the Cataati, initially ask for help from Janeway and … More Star Trek: Voyager – S04E03, Day of Honor
Well, it happened. I don’t know who made that choice in terms of production or writing, but the second episode of the fourth season of Star Trek: Voyager marks the end of my favorite character so far: Kes. Maybe someone decided that paying a blonde who wasn’t a sex bomb was a waste of resources … More Star Trek: Voyager – S04E02, The Gift
The second part of a double episode rarely manages to live up to the first, and this time the task was particularly difficult given the very strong first half of Scorpion. Despite this, I found the second part absolutely satisfying, it’s a great resolution of one of the most tense cliffhangers ever seen in Star … More Star Trek: Voyager – S04E01, Scorpion Part 2
Distant Origin is one of those brave Star Trek installments that I can’t help but admire. Not only is there a very strong message to support the story, but the execution is brilliant in terms of script, narration and dialogue. The story begins with a few scientists of a superior race called Voth, some Saurians … More Star Trek: Voyager – S03E23, Distant Origin
I didn’t find Real Life very convincing. The episode is made up of two very distinct stories: one is predictable and based on a technobabble supported by special effects which, due to the usual budget limitations, didn’t particularly impress me. The protagonist of this story is the reckless Tom Paris who goes with a shuttle … More Star Trek: Voyager – S03E22, Real Life
A good episode was badly needed in this third season which was already showing worrying signs of weakness (the last three episodes had been one worse than the other: Darkling, Rise and Favorite Son). Before and After is yet another episode that plays with time travel but does it well and not only is it … More Star Trek: Voyager – S03E21, Before and After
I have the impression that the people in charge of Star Trek: Voyager have finally decided to get serious. After the first two shaky seasons which introduced only two new noteworthy races, and one of which was none other than the carbon copy of the Klingons, in this second part of the third season it … More Star Trek: Voyager – S03E17, Unity
Blood Fever has some very interesting ideas and an amazing ending to say the least, but it also has its problems. The main one, in my opinion, is that there are too many things in it! For a while the Vulcan ensign Vorik (Alexander Enberg) has been hitting on the beautiful B’Elanna Torres and that … More Star Trek: Voyager – S03E16, Blood Fever
Star Trek: Voyager has hardly ever launched itself into uncharted territory until now, far from it. Very often it has, like all the Star Trek series following The Original Series, reused previous ideas (especially from The Next Generation). Given that the setting should’ve been entirely new (the series takes place in an entirely different quadrant), … More Star Trek: Voyager – S03E15, Coda
I complained a lot about one thing in my Star Trek: Voyager reviews. No, I’m not talking about Kate Mulgrew’s acting. Nor am I talking about the fact that the Delta Quadrant is too similar to the Alpha Quadrant. I am referring to the terrible new Hawaiian holodeck program (see for instance what I wrote … More Star Trek: Voyager – S03E14, Alter Ego
