Far before the episode was over, there was a an obvious "twist" that seemed to be coming. Though my theory turned out to be half right... it then blindsided me with another twist. Well done. Really a very good episode. Interesting to see Chakotay assimilate into this new group, even if it took yet another freaking shuttle crash for him to end up in that situation. | Far before the episode was over, there was a an obvious "twist" that seemed to be coming.

I know people can sometimes be expected to try irrationally hard to stop something bad from happening... but when the Doctor said that a woman's circulatory system was collapsing, Janeway's response was to give her CPR? Did she really think that made sense? | I know people can sometimes be expected to try irrationally hard to stop something bad from happening... but when the Doctor said that a woman's circulatory system was collapsing, Janeway's response was to give her CPR?

The [[Star Trek: First Contact|First Contact]] reference is plain good fun.

(First watched 2007-02-21) Interesting look at a telepathic society with a very different justice system. Rather than the person committing a crime being to blame, it's the person who had a violent thought which affected the assailant. The outlawing of violent thought brought about an underground of telepathic negative thought sharing. | (First watched 2007-02-21) Interesting look at a telepathic society with a very different justice system.

It was really interesting seeing Leonardo react to fantastical things as best he could. When a phaser blast passed right through him, he started questioning his very existence; I really felt for the guy. Yet the best explanation Janeway would give him about all the fancy goings on was that, like a bird wouldn't understand a human, he couldn't properly understand the things going on. So dismissive. | It was really interesting seeing Leonardo react to fantastical things as best he could.

(First watched 2007-03-07) Interesting. Neelix "dies", but thanks to Seven's medical knowledge can be revived after 19 hours. This exaggerates the sort of things people already wonder about the nature of when life ends, and really lets us into Neelix's head to see how he tries to deal with it. Is he still really the same Neelix? Was his belief in an afterlife a sham? Of course conclusions can't really be reached for these issues, so in the end we just see Neelix freak out over them and then get convinced to get over them and get on with life. | (First watched 2007-03-07) Interesting.

Of note, as the middle of the middle season, this is basically Voyager half-point. Probably not a coincidence that it was picked for a major event like finally achieving some communication with home. | Of note, as the middle of the middle season, this is basically Voyager half-point.

(First watched 2007-03-18) Receiving messages from home was more what I expected from the title of the previous episode. Sooo Voyager finds a massive network of communication relays, learns they're amazingly powerful and 100,000 years old... and in a rescue mission destroy one relay causing the whole system to shut down. I haven't seen an opportunity like that slip away since every other [[Stargate]] episode. | (First watched 2007-03-18) Receiving messages from home was more what I expected from the title of the previous episode.

--- | (First watched 2007-03-29) Interesting idea, a species that makes others forget about them. Could've been an interesting addition to the permanent cast. They'd get in one of the bi-weekly shuttle crashes, and by the time a rescue party arrived they'd have no idea who she was. | ||

--- | (First watched 2007-03-30) OK, that was really really good. At first we know that something is off, but not what. As it turns out, it's just inaccurate history. The one thing that bugs me is that being set in the 31st century, it seems to set a limit on what progressions have gone on in the Star Trek universe. No Federation presence within communications distance that Backup Doctor learns of in his years in his new life, for instance. | ||

Yet at the end Janeway is talking about just using samples of DNA to make copies of people... but that shouldn't have allowed for the copies to have memories and clothes. Maybe someone reminded her of that offscreen. | ||
