Movie Reviews of Star Trek Voyager - The Complete Fifth SeasonMovie Review: The Star Trek franchise continues... Summary: 4 StarsNominated for 30 Emmys, including seven for Outstanding Special Visual Effects for a Series, Star Trek: Voyager continues the rich tradition of the original 1960s Star Trek franchise. Created by former L.A. police officer Gene Roddenberry, the Star Trek TV series morphed into a franchise famous for the unprecedented fanatical devotion of its fan base. Lasting only three seasons during its original network run, Star Trek struck gold with its syndicated reruns, launching a number of motion pictures featuring the original cast as well as novels, comic books, collectibles, and reams of Star Trek-related memorabilia. The third spin-off from the original Star Trek series, Star Trek: Voyager premiered in January 1995 to modest critical acclaim, but experienced great success with television viewers, slowly increasing its ratings as the series progressed. Following on the heels of Star Trek: The Next Generation (1987) and Star Trek: Deep Space Nine (1993), the series precedes Star Trek: Enterprise (2001) while boasting an all-star cast that includes veteran actress Kate Mulgrew (whose past TV appearances include such shows as Dallas, Cheers, and Murphy Brown). Yet instead of pursuing the classic Star Trek mission to "boldly go where no one has gone before," Star Trek: Voyager is more about going where the crew has been before...
Star Trek: Voyager follows the exploits of the crew aboard the starship USS Voyager. As the series begins, the Voyager is on a Federation mission to capture a rogue ship of Maquis rebels (a race first introduced in Star Trek: Deep Space Nine). While in pursuit of the Maquis, the Voyager enters a system known as the badlands, and both ships are instantaneously transported to the Delta Quadrant over seventy-thousand light years away on the outskirts of the galaxy. Soon, both the Maquis and the crew of Voyager learn they were brought to Delta Quadrant by the Caretaker, a mysterious force overseeing the safety of the Ocampan race who live in the shadow on an impending threat from the vicious Kazon. When the Kazon destroy the Maquis ship, the Voyager crew merges with the Maquis crew to defend themselves from the Kazon. Having destroyed the device which could bring them home, the crew of the Voyager - led by Capt. Kathryn Janeway (Kate Mulgrew), and the crew of the Maquis ship - led by Commander Chakotay (Robert Beltran), must work as a united front in order to meet their mutual goal of finding a way home...
The Star Trek: Voyager (Season 5) DVD features a number of exciting episodes including the season premiere "Night" in which Capt. Janeway makes the decision to use the Voyager to aid one of its enemies while she reflects on the consequences of the various decisions she's made in the four years that Voyager has been trapped in the Delta Quadrant... Other notable episodes from Season 5 include "Nothing Human" in which B'Elanna becomes violently ill when an alien seizes control of her nervous system, and "Think Tank" in which the Voyager is ambushed by an alien race but given a solution to the attack when an alien "think tank" comes to its rescue...

The DVD Report
Movie Review: Waiting for response from seller Summary: 1 StarsWhen I received this set it contained no Disk #2 and 2 Disk #5s. I have e-mailed the seller to see if they will rectify the situation and I'm waiting for their response.
Movie Review: Things are flying! Summary: 5 StarsThe Delta Flyer appears this season along with Tom Paris' "Captain Proton" adventures.
Movie Review: Possibly the best season of the series Summary: 5 StarsSeasons three and four of Star Trek: Voyager were when the show put its feet on the ground and started to run. The writing got progressively better. There were a ton of GREAT GREAT episodes, but I must say that, in my opinion, this fifth season is the most consistent of the ones to date. There is some great storytelling in this season. Another great addition to the series was the Delta Flyer. Let's face it...the Delta Flyer was COOL! It added a whole new action dimension to the series. When this season came around, we had enough backstory to really dive into the lives of the characters. The Borg again return in "Dark Frontier". The Borg are ALWAYS a welcome sight. They bring action and mystery seemingly everytime they show up. Tom Paris is reduced in rank in one of my personal favorite episodes of the SERIES in "Thirty Days". How can you beat turning the Delta Flyer into a submarine? And then, of course, there is "Timeless". Productionwise the 100th episode of the series. Temporal mechanics and a ship crashing into the ice. Enough said! There is, again, a cliffhanger at the end of this season and it's a doozy. We find out that Voyager is not alone, and the other crew is nowhere near in as good a shape, physically and mentally, as Captain Janeway's valient crew. This is a great season of television. Enjoyable all the way through with very few duds. This could be the best season of the series.
Best Episodes:
Night, Drone, Extreme Risk, In the Flesh, Timeless, Thirty Days, Counterpoint, Latent Image, Bride of Chaotica, Bliss, Dark Frontier, Someone to Watch Over Me, Relativity, Equinox: Part I
Movie Review: VOYAGER FINDS IT'S STRIDE Summary: 5 StarsAfter the growing pains of the first 3 Seasons, Season 4 presented fans with basically an almost entirely new show with the addition of Seven of Nine, and now Season 5 forges great adventure for the crew of the Starship Voyager as they fight to return home. The over-all feel of Season 5 changes the previous "Lost in Space" premise of the show and the Star Trek return to exploration. The Delta Flyer is introduced, new life and new civilizations are explored and most of all...the Borg Queen rises from the ashes of her demise in STAR TREK: FIRST CONTACT to become Janeway's most dangerous adversary! Sit back and come along for the ride...as VOYAGER comes closer to home.
