Amazon.com For many fans, Voyager hit its peak in the fourth season, due in no small part to a certain former Borg drone named Seven of Nine, Tertiary Adjunct of Unimatrix 0-1, but you can call her Seven of Nine (Jeri Ryan). Following the season 3 cliffhanger "Scorpion," the crew enters an unlikely alliance with the Borg against Species 8472, led by Seven of Nine, who ends up restoring (mostly) her human roots and trying to assimilate herself among Voyager's crew all the time feeling the pull of the Collective and resisting the mother-hen attempts of Captain Janeway (Kate Mulgrew). While Seven's curvaceous figure and skin-tight uniform certainly won over many fans, she was helped by a commanding presence, good writing ("So you wish to copulate?" was a classic line), and a stage that was cleared for her by the coinciding departure of one of the most prominent characters of the series.
Other significant developments of the season included the actors' getting to stretch themselves out "Mirror, Mirror"-like as evil counterparts in "Living Witness" (also Tim Russ's directing debut), the time- and mind-bending two-parter "Year of Hell," a battle with 1940s Nazis in the two-part "The Killing Game," the Doctor's comedic sparring with a new rival in "Message in a Bottle," the Alien-like "Prey," and Tom Paris (Robert Duncan MacNeill) taking a personal step and switching bodies with an alien in "Vis a Vis."
The DVD set offers the usual 20-minute season overview, crew profiles of Seven of Nine (natch) and Harry Kim (both of whom show warm appreciation for the Trek crowd), features on Species 8472 and the art of matte painting, and episode spotlights. --David Horiuchi
A perfect SF show...June 1, 2010 Dragonwheel(Montreal PQ Canada) I think this was an excellent show. The acting was great lending the series an aura of authenticity like in the original series. TNG was good at times, but Kirk was a swashbuckler and Picard was not particularly adventurous, more of a thinker and less of a hands on type of guy. I think the Voyager branch of the Star Trek family tree has all the right elements. I think we are living in an age of conflicting elements more so than in any other time previously, and that facet of life today, which is a big facet of it, is represented by the drama played out in the Voyager show very well. I found TNG to be a bit tentative, and not so interesting, with the possible exception of the Data character who I always thought was very well acted, and Worf was not bad... but Voyager is definitely high adventure in interstellar space...
Voyager still rocks!May 5, 2010 mustangnut(North Carolina) Star Trek "The Next Generation" hit the airwaves while I was in college. I spent many hours after class in front of "the tube" because it was free entertainment for a broke college kid. As far as the spin-offs go, I personally believe Voyager is the most imaginative. Enough time has elapsed since the originals aired that I no longer remember the details. I am just completing the Fourth Season, and can hardly wait for the Fifth to arrive.
The Fourth Season is a new beginning of sorts for the crew. A Borg, Seven of Nine, becomes a part of the crew just as long-time crew member Kes departs. These changes add an entirely new dynamic to the ship. Many viewers of the original show felt that the fourth through seventh seasons were the best. Enjoy!
Poor Packaging for DeliveryFebruary 18, 2010 PryncessAnna(Jamaica) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Great series - no prob with product itself. I got two of the four dvd seasons I bought with the cases broken. This one was unbroken.
Amazon should look at packaging these delicate cases with some padding & not just a cardboard base with a plastic wrap.
Voyager the Complete fourth SeasonFebruary 8, 2010 Judith M. Herman Voyager was my favorite of the Star Trek series. Season four was as satisfying as the other seasons. It came in a timely manner and in good condition.
FantasticAugust 30, 2009 bgrim(illinois) I couldn't be happier. My Grandson wanted this for his birthday and I was able to buy it in perfect condition and it arrived in perfect time for his big day.
