Resurrection DS9 Season 6 Episode 8

Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Season 6 Episode 8 "Resurrection" explained. Join me as I review and recap the mirror universe episode that's a repeat of another mirror universe episode where one of our main characters meets the mirror universe version of a lover that has passed away, and deals with the complex emotions involved. I do think this episode has merits, it is an interesting character story for Kira, but it's kind of dull and a distraction for the powerful Dominion War story lines.

You are Cordially Invited DS9 Season 6 Episode 7

Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Season 6 Episode 7 "You are Cordially Invited" explained. Join me as I review and recap the fun wedding episode that marks the first time that two main characters in a Star Trek show get married. I did enjoy this episode the jokes about the "Klingon Bachelor Party" mostly landed, and it just had a light hearted tone, that portrayed the crew as a family. BUT... it had the plot of a silly romantic comedy, where the groom's parent rejects the bride and this cause tension between the couple, which is a tired and over used cliché, and it wasn't even done particularly well in this episode, as the main reconciliation happens OFF SCREEN! So it's not without it's issues.

Scientific Method Review ST VOY S4 E7

Star Trek: Voyager Season 4 Episode 7 "Scientific Method" explained. Join me as I review and recap the episode where the crew is infiltrated by aliens doing experiments on the crew without the crew's knowledge. This is part of a series of episodes such as "Displaced" and "Waking Moments" +that+ depict strange aliens overpowering and infiltrating the ship, and is one of the best examples of that. It is also reminiscent of the TNG episode "Schisms" but way more effective, as the sense of paranoia it creates really works as Seven has to hide what she knows of the aliens from the crew because they're everyone. And when Janeway loses it and decides she'd rather destroy the ship than allow these aliens to continue to harm her crew is reminiscent of Picard in "Where Silence has Lease" but again, done much better.

Sons and Daughters Review ST DS9 S6 E3

Star Trek: Voyager Season 6 Episode 3 "Sons and Daughters" explained. Join me as I review and recap a terrible episode that character assassinated both Alexander and Worf. It's not just that this episode is inconsistent with Alexander's character, and that they aged him up 10 years, but also that this is the absolutely wrong direction to take this character in and makes no sense what so ever and this episode doesn't even TRY to explain. And also this is the episode responsible for the trope of Worf being a terrible father. TNG actually left their relationship in a good place, and Worf learned to accept and love his son. This episode completely undoes all of that, and turns him into one of the worst fathers in Star Trek. The B plot is good though, as it brings Ziyal back to the station and Dukat (another terrible father, but maybe not as bad as Worf, I mean he at least was shattered when Ziyal died, I doubt Worf would give a shit if Alexander died) uses his daughter in a plot to manipulate Major Kira. It's an interesting plot, but also takes up very little screen time.

Rocks and Shoals DS9 Season 5, Episode 2

Star Trek: Voyager Season 6 Episode 2 "Rocks and Shoals" explained. Join me as I review and recap an excellent episode that continues the Dominion station take over arc, with a beautiful location shoot with a story that's reminiscent of the 5th season episode "The Ship" but better. As Sisko is presented with a tough moral dilemma that really only has one choice but it's terrible. Meanwhile we get an equally as good B plot on the station as Kira has to confront the fact that she may have become a collaborator.
