Latent ImageThat was really good! The Doctor is easily my favourite character and the actor was amazing in this.
The best Trek episodes (imo) are the ones that either make you think or offer up a difficult moral question.
This one was both, who do you save if both have an equal chance of survival. And what would that do to an AI designed to save life? Bride of Chaotica!Pre episode predictions based on the title alone:
1. This will be some holodeck nonsense.
2. This will be gooseberry fool.
I loved the dig at the start about reusing sets/locations
Ok I was right on both predictions. But I should have added:
3. It was a lot of fun
Ridiculous, dumb and utter utter gooseberry fool. But I thoroughly enjoyed it.
Gravity"I'm a doctor, not a battery!"
That was a good episode, I like the
difference in the way time was running, it hurts my brain to think of time running so differently in different places. Tuvok has an interesting back story, I hope they explore more of it. He seems to be a very underused character.
BlissTop security on Voyager's computer systems, to access restricted files all you need to do is remove a panel and take out a chip.
This should have been a gooseberry fool episode, the idea of
being tricked into a giant pitcher plant is very silly.
But it was actually decent, Seven (and the annoying kid who wasn't actually annoying here) against a brainwashed crew was very well done.
"I'm a doctor, not a dragon slayer!"
The Doctor and the alien guy would make a good spin off series. A sitcom of the two of them wandering the galaxy fighting monsters.
Dark Frontier - Parts 1 & 2What sort of parents go to a Borg cube with their kid.
Why do they want to get a transwarp coil anyway? Don't they remember that it'll turn them into lizards?
This was a fantastic double episode, right up there with the best Trek in any of the series. Some great effects in this, especially for the late 90s. They should have not bothered with Nemesis and made this a movie.
Sorry to the DS9 fans, but Voyager kicks the absolute gooseberry fool out of it. For me it's going to rival TNG, unless it falls off a cliff in the last couple of seasons.
