Enchantment of Eternity’s Star Trek Episode Reviews

Distant Voices DS9 Season 3, Episode 18

Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Season 3 Episode 18 "Distant" explained. Join me as I review and recap number 24 in my Top 25 Worst Episodes of the Star Trek Franchise countdown. This misguided episode is an attempt to go inside Bashir's head as he's dying, but it comes off as incredibly hooky, and doesn't sell it as each other character represents an aspect of Bashir's personality but then they all get killed off right away so who cares? They introduce an awesome new villain who seems scary through most of the episode but then you find out the real Lethean was just a putz who was captured immediately, so disappointing. Come see my first reaction as I breakdown the episode and attempt to give my in depth analysis

Prime Factors VOY Season 1, Episode 9

In this podcast I analyze and deconstruct the 1st season Voyager episode "Prime Factors"

Emanations VOY Season 1 Episode 8

Star Trek: Voyager Season 1 Episode 8 "Emanations" explained. Join me as I review and recap a mediocre episode that tries to explore the topic of what happens after you die, and also one's beliefs being challenged and turned upside down. And while I think these are worth while concepts to cover, I don't think the episode goes far enough, and while not terrible, seems kind of incomplete and full of moments where you could feel the heavy hand of the plot involved moving things forward in an unnatural way.

Ex Post Facto VOY Season 1, Episode 7

Star Trek: Voyager Season 1 Episode 7 "Ex Post Facto" explained. Join me as I review and recap yet another wrongfully accused episode where a main cast member is accused of a murder we know for a fact they didn't commit. It does introduce an interesting concept where the convicted is forced to relive the final moments of their vitcims life, but it's used incorrectly where episode tries too hard to make it a film Noir episode that comes off as silly and hooky, where a planet in the Delta Quadrant comes off as 1940's America featuring cigarette smoking and DOGS, and the characters are taken directly from a 1940's film with horrible dialog and terrible acting.

Eye of the Needle VOY Season 1, Episode 6

In this podcast I anylze and dive into the Voyager episode "Eye of the Needle"

Prophet Motive DS9 Season 3 Episode 16

Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Season 3 Episode 16 "Prophet Motive" explained. Join me as I review and recap the first episode that brings back the wormhole aliens / Prophets since the first episode of the show and they decide to do it in a Ferengi episode It's not one of the worst Ferengi episodes it's actually pretty decent. I do find it mildly amusing because unlike other episodes with the Grand Nagus they're not telling the same joke over and over again and come at it from a slightly different angle, that of the super nice and caring Grand Nagus.

The Cloud VOY Season 1, Episode 5

Star Trek: Voyager Season 1 Episode 5 "The Cloud" explained. Join me as I review and recap another typical anomaly, it does have the much quoted line of "there's coffee in that nebula" yet it actually doesn't make any sense that they can't use the replicators to conserve power yet it's okay for them to spend time in the much more power dependent holodeck. So this episode does have some good character moments and showcases how season 1 was more character focused than later seasons, but some of the character moments are not so good such as the Native American stereotyping going on with Chakotay's animal guide, and Neelix acting like a little b**** which can be quite annoying.

Destiny DS9 Season 3, Episode 15

Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Season 3 Episode 15 "Destiny" explained. Join me as I review and recap this somewhat forgettable episode, that is the beginning of redifining what it means for Sisko to be the Emissary. But it over all is a pretty good episode that explores Cardassian culture more as we meet civilians who are not just fascists and get along well with our crew. So all in all a pretty good episode.
