Have you watched any Star Trek since last week? I'm thinking of doing a weekly post like this where people can drop the Star Trek shows, movies, or print media that they've consumed in the past week, as well as their thoughts on them.

    VOY 3x8,3x9,3x10,3x11, and 3x12. I haven't seen Voyager since it originally aired and my partner has never seen it. This is a really interesting point in the series for me.

    The good: the doctor gets the mobile emitter. This is the first really big change in the show structure and more doctor is always better. Plus, Future's End (3x8 and 3x9) is a really fun 2-parter with great guests.

    The bad: the lack of character or circumstance development really starts to drag by this point. I know there's the big shakeup at the end of season 3 and I'm extremely ready for it. Warlord (3x10) tries to be a big Kes episode to circle back to her psychic powers but like everything it goes nowhere. Not to mention I know her story goes nowhere so it's hard to be excited about anything she does.

      The Doctor is definitely one of the highlights of the show for me! I enjoy seeing Picardo on other things I watch too, his appearance on DS9 and his character in the Stargate franchise both spring to mind. It also reminds me he's on Prodigy too, and that I haven't finished it yet!

      I agree on the development on Voyager, I feel like they definitely missed some good stories and arcs due to the unique setting.
