STAR TREK VOYAGER SEASON 4 EPISODE 26 FULL

(вЂI was told to drill you, Chakotay! But itвЂ™s you whoвЂ™ve drilled me!вЂ™ BOM-CHICKA-BOW-WOW)ДҐ. The humor value of the unintentional homoeroticism is the only reason I can think of to watch. IвЂ™m sorry, I canвЂ™t remotely take this seriously. The acting is so bad I keep thinking itвЂ™s going to turn into a gay porno at any moment during the first half, and then in walks possibly the worst child actor IвЂ™ve ever seen in anything. I choose to believe that the Universal Translator is just fucking with me. Either that or theyвЂ™re just a bunch of pretentious twelve-year-olds armed with PSAT vocabulary practice books. The writer said he wanted these aliens to sound Chaucerian, but they actually just sound like they all swallowed the same thesaurus. Did you play that part of FFVIII? You know, the space catch? Then youвЂ™re good. Still, when a character gets that god-modded, youвЂ™ve got to make them leave the party or itвЂ™s just not fair to everyone else.ДЈ.

She started out kind of bizarre and spacey, but I actually wound up liking her a lot. Nope, she makes it this far - but no further. When the end of that came and went, I figured it must have been somewhere around the middle of season two. When I started my rewatch, I seemed to remember that Kes left at the end of the first season. Well, duh, you want to know how the season three cliffhanger wound up, donвЂ™t you? вЂ¦And okay, I know the production team disavows all similarities, but those things are just straight-up the Vorlon from Babylon 5.Дў. And after this rewatch, I will freely admit that my earlier dislike was wrong and revise my opinion: Seven is not the worst thing to happen to Voyager she just happens to be the convergence point of several unflattering meta ideas held by the creative minds that ran the show. She is straight-up the best actor in the cast and she brings out the best in pretty much everyone she works with, especially Kate Mulgrew. She gives it up pretty quickly, too, to the point where later вЂbut will she rejoin the Borg?вЂ™ threats are pretty toothless.

(Is it any wonder DS9 and I are BFFs?)Д®very вЂreclaim your humanness!вЂ™ bit I saw back then seemed like it never quite gave SevenвЂ™s resistance a full shake, nor did anyone really concede that, you know, sheвЂ™s making a really good point.

No lie, IвЂ™m a big enough nerd that I one wrote a college paper about how Star TrekвЂs вЂhumanity is the best!вЂ™ attitude really sticks in my craw.

The second reason had less to do with her, and more that her presence turned everyone around her into the pro-humanity cheerleading squad. (See also: EnterpriseвЂs Sex Vulcan - and boy, is that a show IвЂ™m not doing a Skip It/Watch It for. Her core design was just so obviously someoneвЂ™s masturbatory fantasy put on display to attract straight male viewers that I was uncomfortable as a young person, and IвЂ™m still more than a little uncomfortable now. Like, I understand how a plain bodysuit is a reasonably unfrivolous outfit, but really if theyвЂ™d rescued a boy Borg instead, do you think they wouldвЂ™ve put him in a silver suit so tight you could see his balls?ДЄnd thereвЂ™s nothing in the universe practical about those heels. One of the reasons was, I will admit now, semi-petty: she was pretty, but she wasnвЂ™t just pretty, she was Space Magic Barbie, who had been dressed not only in a tight suit, but in a tight suit specifically made to corset her as prominently possible - and made absolutely no practical sense, to boot. She first appeared on the show when I was sixteen years old, and I felt she was about the worst thing Voyager had going for it. She! Cannot! Be! Stopped! Once again, Whitney Bishop is venturing into dark terrain - albeit dark terrain featuring a sexy Borg lady.
