"STAR TREK VOYAGER" RETROSPECTIVE: (5.12 “Bride of Chaotica!”)

One of the aspects of ”STAR TREK VOYAGER” that I have truly enjoyed over the other ”TREK” shows were the holoprograms featured of the episodes centered in the two Holodecks. One such holo program was ”The Adventures of Captain Proton” stories created door Voyager’s Chief Pilot, Tom Paris. Captain Proton was featured in at least four episodes – three in Season Five and one in Season Seven. But without a doubt, my favoriete happened to be the third Proton story titled, (5.12) ”Bride of Chaotica!”.

In short, ”Bride...

Below is a lijst of my ten (10) favoriete episodes from the televisie series, "STAR TREK VOYAGER" (1995-2001):


TOP TEN (10) favoriete "STAR TREK VOYAGER" EPISODES

1. (5.12) "Bride of Chaotica" - Tom Paris' latest holodeck adventure, "The Adventures of Captain Proton", takes an unexpected turn when Voyager encounters an area in space that is home pagina to photonic extra-dimensional aliens. My favoriete TREK episode of all time.


2. (3.16) "Blood Fever" - After deciding that B'Elanna Torres would be the perfect mate, Ensign Vorik passes on his case of Pon Farr to her, which leads to problems during an...

RETROSPECTIVE: "STAR TREK VOYAGER" (6.14) "Memorial"

I have never been a fan of "STAR TREK VOYAGER"’s Season Six. It is my seconde least favoriete season of the series, following Season One. But I am not here to discuss the sixth season. Instead, I want to discuss one of the season’s episode – namely (6.14) "Memorial". Despite being part of a mediocre season, I consider this episode to be one of the series’ best.

"Memorial" is an excellent episode that seemed to be – at least in my opinion – misunderstood door many Trek fans. In this tense story, Chakotay, Tom Paris, Harry Kim and Neelix...

"STAR TREK VOYAGER" - Unfit For Command?

Do many ster TREK fans consider most Vulcan characters unfit for command? I wonder. I came across this "STAR TREK VOYAGER" fan fiction story about the letters written to the Alpha Quadrant door Voyager’s crew in the Season 1 episode, "Eye of the Needle". The auteur of this particular fan fiction story seemed to believe that because of their emotional distance, Vulcans are basically unfit for command. Personally, I disagree.

This belief that Vulcans were unfit for command certainly seemed supported door Lisa Klink’s screenplay for the Season 2 episode,...

"STAR TREK VOYAGER" RETROSPECT: (5.08) "Nothing Human"

I came across an old episode of "STAR TREK VOYAGER" that I have not seen in a long time. It is a Season Five episode called (5.08) "Nothing Human". And I must say that without a doubt, it is one of the most ambiguous TREK episodes I have ever seen.

In the episode, Voyager's crew found a stranded vessel with a wounded alien on board. Once the creature is beamed to Sickbay, Chief Engineer B'Elanna Torres discovered that it uses biochemical secretions to give commands. Unfortunately, the alien attacked Torres, puncturing her neck and secreting...

"STAR TREK VOYAGER" RETROSPECT: (3.26-4.01) "Scorpion"

After three seasons, the series "STAR TREK VOYAGER" entered into a new era with the two-part episode, (3.26-4.01) "Scorpion". In "Scorpion", the crew of the U.S.S. Voyager finally reaches Borg space after three seasons - an event that would serve as a turning point for the series.

Aired at the end of Season Three and the beginning of Season Four, "Scorpion" finds the Voyager entering Borg space. To the crew's surprise, they discover that the Borg is engaged in a major conflict with another alien race called Species 8472. An even meer discovery...

"STAR TREK VOYAGER: Love on a Starship"

I am not going to deceive myself and pretend that the relationship between Captain Kathryn Janeway and her First Officer, Commander Chakotay, lacked any chemistry. Of course there had been chemistry. Even a blind person could have sensed the chemistry between them just door listening to their dialogue. But while I will admit the enormous dynamics between the two characters, I never could see the possibility of a "happily ever after" for them. Not while the pair served as the command team of the U.S.S. Voyager.

When many "STAR TREK VOYAGER" fans had first...
