Ah, there's nothing like spending a pleasant evening parking with your sweetie under the Martian sky--WAIT THERE'S NO BREATHABLE ATMOSPHERE ON MARS WE CAN'T--never mind, it's just the holodeck and we're both holograms, it's OK! Whew. [more inside]

Star Trek: Voyager: Resistance Rewatch Season 2, Ep 12
“When life itself seems lunatic, who knows where madness lies? Perhaps to be too practical is madness. To surrender dreams — this may be madness. Too much sanity may be madness — and maddest of all: to see life as it is, and not as it should be!” ― Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra, Don Quixote [more inside]

Star Trek: Voyager: Non Sequitur Rewatch Season 2, Ep 5
Life is apparently pretty good for a talented young Starfleet officer fresh out of the Academy: nice San Francisco apartment (small, but with a hell of a view), beautiful fiancée, promising budding career as a propulsion engineer with the Starfleet Engineering Corps, even a local barista who knows his favorite drink order by heart. Sure, he didn't get that shipboard assignment that he wanted, but given Voyager's disappearance in the Badlands with all hands missing, even that's for the best. So... what's the matter with Harry? [more inside]
Star Trek: Voyager: Elogium Rewatch Season 2, Ep 4
Ahh, springtime in the Delta Quadrant. When the suns are shining their brightest… the leola plants are in bloom… and a young Ocampa woman's fancy turns to inflating her neck sac, getting foot massages from holograms, and coating her hands in mustard. [more inside]
Star Trek: Voyager: Projections Rewatch Season 2, Ep 3
Once upon a time, I, the Emergency Medical Hologram, dreamt I was a man, walking hither and thither, to all intents and purposes a man. I was conscious only of my happiness as a man, unaware that I was the EMH. Soon I awoke, and there I was, veritably myself again. Now I do not know whether I was then a hologram dreaming I was a man, or whether I am now a man, dreaming I am a hologram. Or maybe it's just another damn holodeck malfunction? And what the hell was Lieutenant Broccoli doing there? [more inside]

Star Trek: Voyager: The 37's Rewatch Season 2, Ep 1
According to Wikipedia, the Milky Way Galaxy is about 100,000 light years in diameter, and an average 1000 light years thick. Doing the math, that puts the Delta Quadrant (¼ of the Milky Way) at a volume of a bit under 2 trillion cubic light years. And, in that staggering volume, Voyager, which is 343 meters in length, comes across a truck (truck-sized), specifically a 1936 Ford pickup. Which can still start on the first try. And that's not the least likely thing that they'll find that day... [more inside]
Star Trek: Voyager: Learning Curve Rewatch Season 1, Ep 16
WHAT IS YOUR HOLO-MALFUNCTION, CADET? YOU CAN'T SPREAD YOUR FINGERS APART IN A V-SHAPE LIKE ANY VULCAN CHILD CAN? DO YOU NOT KNOW WHAT A "V" IS, SON? NEVER LEARNED YOUR FEDERATION STANDARD ALPHABET, IS THAT IT? OR IS SOMETHIN' WRONG WITH YOUR FINGERS? TOO MUCH QUALITY TIME WITH LITTLE MISS ROTTENCROTCH DELANEY?

Star Trek: Voyager: Jetrel Rewatch Season 1, Ep 15

Star Trek: Voyager: Ex Post Facto Rewatch Season 1, Ep 8
It was a cold night in the bad quadrant. I was playing flyboy for the kid, Kim. Hired hand, that's all. The skies were black with rain on the way down. Nothing I couldn't handle. I brought the kid dirtside to meet some physicist. They got to talking, and before too long, I'm the third nacelle. Get two science guys together? Forget it. I'd just about checked out altogether…when she walked in. Legs like the Pleasure Goddess of Rixx, forehead like a Terran horny toad. It figured. Next thing I know, she's on me like a Denevan neural parasite. And me without an ultraviolet light source. Some luck. [more inside]

Star Trek: Voyager: Phage Rewatch Season 1, Ep 5

Star Trek: Voyager: Parallax Rewatch Season 1, Ep 3

Star Trek: Voyager: Caretaker Rewatch Season 1, Ep 1
(Series Premiere) The newly-commissioned U.S.S. Voyager ventures from Federation outpost Deep Space 9 into the Badlands to hunt down a Maquis raider…only to encounter something that, even for the Badlands, is really bad. [more inside]

[more inside]

Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: Extreme Measures* Rewatch Season 7, Ep 23
(Series Finale - Part 7 of 9**) [cover showing Bashir and O'Brien wearing jumpsuits and carrying complicated, incomprehensible pieces of tech; in the background, a brain surrounded by Kirby Dots] The fate of the entire galaxy*** at stake!

(Get a) Life After Deep Space Nine
Now that the Star Trek: Deep Space Nine rewatch is drawing to a close, we have tossed around some ideas about what Star Trek to cover next in recent threads. Let's organize our thoughts here and hash it out. [more inside]
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: When It Rains... Rewatch Season 7, Ep 21
...it pours... plot twists. The Klingons hold the key to victory over the Dominion, and a canny and judicious leader could use that to hold them at bay until the entire Alliance was ready to join them; unfortunately, the Empire has Gowron. Kira changes her clothes and Garak makes a call. Dukat finds out that when the Pah-wraiths say "for the Kai's eyes only", they mean it. And the only cure for someone's fever (not the sexy kind) isn't more cowbell, and Bashir and O'Brien have to go to the last people (ostensibly) on their side who they want to see to get it. (Series Finale - Part 5 of 9) [more inside]
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: The Changing Face of Evil Rewatch Season 7, Ep 20
(Series Finale - Part 4 of 9) The tide of the war turns against the Federation Alliance after a Breen attack on San Francisco and the loss of a strategically important system in Dominion space.

Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: Strange Bedfellows Rewatch Season 7, Ep 19
(Series Finale - Part 3 of 9) Unfortunately, despite the title, not a bedroom farce (with the deliberate exception of The Power Couple Who Shall Not Be Named), but still plenty to chew on: Martok reveals to Sisko that the real war has just begun, a prisoner is a pain in the neck for Weyoun, Quark pours one out for a homie, Damar considers the man in the mirror (prior to asking him to change his ways), Winn does a heel/even-worse-heel turn, and Worf and Ezri? They're just hangin' out. [more inside]
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: 'Til Death Do Us Part Rewatch Season 7, Ep 18
(Series Finale - Part 2 of 9) Sisko knowingly defies the Prophets, but for a good reason. Kai Winn unknowingly defies the Prophets, but for a HORRIBLE ICKY GROSS REASON EW EW EW. [more inside]

Bashir attends a medical conference…on Romulus. Naturally, the conference turns out to be more than it seems…but, with Section 31 involved, it turns out to be more than it seems that it seems. …Or is it? [more inside]

Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: The Emperor's New Cloak Rewatch Season 7, Ep 12
Grand Nagus Zek somehow decides that he should go on a trip to the Mirror Universe to explore business opportunities. This probably wasn't one of Moogie's ideas. [more inside]
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: Prodigal Daughter Rewatch Season 7, Ep 11
A missing Chief O'Brien, a dead woman with Orion Syndicate connections, and a very dysfunctional family all combine to raise one compelling, urgent question: will Ezri get a halfway-decent character arc before the series ends? [more inside]
