When Voyager is pulled into a temporal rift they end up in 1996 Los Angeles looking for a guy named Starling who has stolen a time ship from the 29th century. Chakotay finds people living on a planet who used to be Borg, and they want his help. Q takes Janeway back to the Continuum where there&#8217;s a civil war raging.<\/p>\n<p>Some episodes I remember at least the gist of, but others are like new. Although there are some great episodes, there are also some surprisingly ineffective ones.<\/p>\n<p>Janeway and Chakotay have delightful moments here and there where they show they care about each other. Jennifer Lien does a terrific job portraying a character other than Kes in &#8220;Warlord.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>After spending so much time on Kes and Neelix&#8217;s relationship, they dropped it suddenly &#8212; which was a bit odd. Janeway&#8217;s decision to make a deal with the Borg was pretty shocking &#8212; Chakotay&#8217;s counter-argument was more reasonable.<\/p>\n<p>In &#8220;Before and After&#8221; Kes finds herself a grandmother &#8212; and then starts jumping backward in time. In &#8220;Distant Origin&#8221; a Voth scientist shows up on Voyager claiming that Voth and humans originated on the same world. In &#8220;Worst Case Scenario&#8221; B&#8217;Elanna finds a holodeck program in which the Maquis take over the ship. In &#8220;Scorpion, Part I&#8221; Voyager reaches Borg space &#8212; but the Borg have other things to worry about, an adversary more powerful than they are.<\/p>\n<p>Guest stars include Ed Begley Jr., Sarah Silverman, Suzie Plakson, and Grace Lee Whitney. The ultimate guest star, George Takei, reprises his role of Sulu from <strong>The Original Series<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Stars Robert Picardo, Tim Russ, and Garrett Wang.<\/p>\n<p>This is the 2nd time I&#8217;ve watched it.<\/p>\n<p>I previously reviewed <a href=\"https:\/\/www.davidmswitzer.com\/blog\/2020\/10\/star-trek-voyager-season-2\/\">season 2<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>{4.5\/5} &#8220;I don&#8217;t know what happened to you, but there can be any number of explanations: hallucination, telepathic communication from another race, repressed memory, momentary contact with a parallel reality &#8212; take your pick.
