TV #18 of 2023: Star Trek: Voyager, season 7 I’ve never been too enamored of Star Trek’s extended Lost in Space riff, but this final season is such an improvement over the previous outings that I’m happy to bump my rating up to four-out-of-five stars. My earliest complaint about this series, taken from my review …

TV Review: Star Trek: Voyager, season 6
TV #4 of 2023: Star Trek: Voyager, season 6 Right now in my Star Trek watch-through, I am alternating a season of Voyager with a season of Enterprise, which provides an interesting and productive contrast. While this will never be my favorite iteration of the franchise, and I have to say that this penultimate year …
TV Review: Star Trek: Voyager, season 5
TV #46 of 2022: Star Trek: Voyager, season 5 Another solid serving of 90s science-fiction, still satisfyingly tighter all around than this show’s early years. I’d call it a minor step down from the season before, however, which felt more ambitious with its introduction of Seven of Nine and her personal arc of reintegrating into …

TV Review: Star Trek: Voyager, season 3
TV #8 of 2022: Star Trek: Voyager, season 3 Overall, this third year of Star Trek’s Lost in Space riff displays the same weaknesses as before. Few of its episodes are terribly awful — and I’d even grant that none are as bad as some of the clunkers from season 2 — but they still …
TV Review: Star Trek: Voyager, season 2
TV #77 of 2021: Star Trek: Voyager, season 2 Overall I would say that this season is a step down from the first, especially when you factor in a few real clunkers like “Tattoo,” “Threshold,” and “Elogium.” Luckily it also has bright spots along the lines of “Deadlock” and “Tuvix,” although the script of the …
TV Review: Star Trek: Voyager, season 1
TV #59 of 2021: Star Trek: Voyager, season 1 The overwhelming feeling I have about this particular sci-fi spinoff so far is one of wasted potential. I can see the Lost in Space angle that the writers are going for, isolating a starship far from the known setting of the rest of the franchise and …
