07/27/23 • 69 min

Look, we're kind of punchy this week but we actually remain largely on-point through much of this week's "Voyager" journey. First up: the Doc writes some really bad fanfic and then OOPS LEGAL DRAMA NOW in "Author, Author." After that, we find out that maybe the Prime Directive occasionally has a point in "Friendship One". Also this week: a special week, monkey law, and a pointless death!

Episode 315: Farewell Neelix

Yes there were three episodes this week, but only one of them truly matters. First up, in "Natural Law", an interesting plot shows up just in time for the episode to end while Chris disagrees with everyone else on the quality of the B plot. After that, Caitlin and Neelix both complete their arcs as everyone's favorite Ambassador finds a purpose and closure in "Homestead". Finally, the Doctor annoys Ames by not being all he can be in "Renaissance Man". Jake, meanwhile, protests for hologram rights. Also this week: The Brave Little Toaster, Captain Planet villains, and Voyager aliens!
