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
As the relationship between Tom Paris and B’Elanna Torres continues to develop, knowing that in at least one possible future there may be something between the two (see Before and After), here’s a fun adventure that has a somewhat hasty conclusion but that’s entertaining for its 45 minutes of length. The episode is called Displaced. … More Star Trek: Voyager – S03E24, Displaced
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
In Favorite Son, Harry Kim begins to mutate genetically and it seems that he’s not really human, but a being from Taresia, a planet that Voyager visits thanks to the unusual abilities of Kim who saves the ship from certain destruction at the hands of a Nasari vessel. The planet is the classic dream planet … More Star Trek: Voyager – S03E20, Favorite Son
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
Darkling is yet another uninteresting episode, unfortunately. It’s one of those episodes based on “let’s entertain an actor with the evil version of his character“, a bit like Warlord with the evil version of Kes. This time it’s up to Robert Picardo and his Doctor. Amazing, you may say, with such a protagonist things can’t … More Star Trek: Voyager – S03E18, Darkling
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
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
What to say about Q and the Grey apart from the fact that the title refers to the US Civil War poem entitled The Blue and The Grey? Unfortunately there’s little to praise here, which is very disappointing given that the previous appearance of Q (John DeLancie) in Star Trek: Voyager was the memorable Death … More Star Trek: Voyager – S03E11, Q and the Grey
