Star Trek – Voyager, Episode 13: Cathexis
Apr 23rd
Amazon.com
Original airdate: 5/1/95. Stardate: 48734.2. After their shuttlecraft is attacked by an unknown force, Tuvok is mildly injured and Chakotay is left brain-dead, his "bio-neural energy" drained away. Captain Janeway orders Voyager to pursue the unknown assailant into a nearby nebula, but a mysterious presence in the ship--sensed by Kes, and able to seize control of any crewmember at will--prevents Voyager from giving chase. This phenomenon echoes the plot of the Denzel Washing... More >>

Dick novel. The opening seems to show Riker trapped in a mental hospital, but the melodramatic lines and Jonathan Frakes's hammy overacting (intentional, it turns out, and quite amusing) cue us that something is not right. Sure enough, he's only rehearsing the role of a... More >>
Star Trek – Deep Space Nine, Episode 34: Whispers
Apr 22nd
Amazon.com
Star Trek fans know that the character Miles O'Brien (Colm Meaney), the Irish-born engineer with a very small role on The Next Generation, grew into a major figure on Deep Space Nine, befitting Meaney's rising prominence in film (The Snapper). The episode called "Whispers" places the actor at the center of an unnerving, Twilight Zone-like story in which O'Brien returns to the station following an assignment in the Paradas system, only to find that everyone is treating ...
