Neelix Appreciation Episode
The BIG Sci-Fi Podcast
12/22/23 • 56 min
We love Neelix, yes we do! We love Neelix, how 'bout you?
Neelix was a one of a kind alien regular on Star Trek: Voyager. Played by the talented actor, Ethan Phillips, Neelix was a character most people loved as he brought a lot of the show's humor and sensitivity to the forefront of the episodes he was featured in. Love him or dislike him (because hate is way too strong of a word!), we wanted to talk about this pivotal character to a beloved part of the Trek franchise.
