Product Description

In their sixth season trying to return to the Alpha Quadrant, the crew of Voyager continues to find signs that they may be close to home. They ran across another Federation starship in the season 5 cliffhanger, "Equinox," which is concluded in action-packed fashion. Then they benefit from a brief communications link to home thanks to the ongoing efforts of The Next Generation's Lt. Reginald Barclay (Dwight Schultz), occasionally assisted by Counsellor Troi (Marina Sirtis). "One Small Step" sets Voyager on the trail of NASA's first manned mission to Mars (one of the bonus features details Robert Picardo's post-Trek work with NASA). In other episodes, Torres (Roxann Biggs-Dawson) tests the limits of Klingon honor ("Barge of the Dead"), Tuvok (Tim Russ) stretches his emotions ("Riddles), Paris (Robert Duncan McNeill) and Kim (Garrett Wang) embark on a new holdeck program, wrestling superstar the Rock makes a gimmicky guest appearance ("Tsunakatse"), a former crew member returns ("Fury"), and the crew discovers a group of abandoned Borg children ("Collective"). The two most interesting characters continue to be the Doctor (Picardo) and Seven of Nine (Jeri Ryan). The former stretches out numerous times ("Tinker, Tailor, Doctor, Spy," "Virtuoso," "Life Line"), and we learn more about Seven's Borg past in "Survival Instinct" and the season closer, in which Seven discovers that during regeneration she can enter a dream world called Unimatrix Zero. There she meets a number of mutated Borg who can exist in this world in their pre-assimilation state and who also present an idea for destroying the collective from within. The Borg Queen, however, discovers the plan and ends the season in a nightmarish cliffhanger that recalls the great Next Gen episode "The Best of Both Worlds." --David Horiuchi

 How can you NOT love this product?? LOL February 7, 2010
Debra Case (Newcomerstown, OH USA)
I can't say enough about how much I LOVE this!! I have purchased, through various retailers, the entire Star Trek Voyager series, one season at a time. (Who among us can afford to buy the complete series all at once? LOL) Anyhoo, when I found this on Amazon at that price---well, I just about fell out! Never, ever, have I seen any of these sets for that price! And then, to "sweeten the pot" as they say, it was free shipping too!! Now, I did have one slight problem with this purchase, and that was the case was cracked at the top, and some pieces of it fell out when I opened it up. That being said, I can deal with it--the discs were all great, no problems. And I have bought another season of Voyager from Amazon, and it also came with a cracked case. So, a little more bubble wrap and it's all good!!
May be the best of the series! January 30, 2010

Star Trek: Voyager is a sort of whipping boy among Star Trek fans. (At least it was until the much beleagered and underappreciated Star Trek: Enterprise came along). Granted, even the creators of the series admitted the plot flaw of the entire series--"Why didn't the crew of Voyager simply set a course for the Alpha Quadrant and put themselves in suspended animation until they got back?"
Given this, the series has been uneven up to this point. But the series sixth season may very well be the one where the series fires on all thrusters.
It begins with a satisfying conclusion to the fifth season cliff hanger and continues by showing the relationships between the characters (a hallmark of the original Star Trek series) growing deeper and more nuanced as the series progresses. It continues to humanize Captain Kathryn Janeway helping her take her rightful place among the Captains of the other Star Trek series. Janeway is no Kirk or Picard, and she doesn't have to be. In the past she seemed rather cold and aloof, but by the time the sixth season came along I grew to appreciate her and even like her.
Humor, which has always been a part of Star Trek, is used to great effect in this season especially in the character of the Doctor. He may be just an Emergency Medical Hologram, but he's the best thing to happen to a starship sickbay since Dr. McCoy.
In the past I only tolerated Voyager (I even liked Enterprise better than Voyager--I can't understand why so many fans rejected what is, in my opinion, the show that best captures the spirit of the original series, but that's another story). But with the sixth season I became a fan of Voyager.
Not my favorite but I still love it December 8, 2009
Debra Augur (Washington State)
I've purchased all of the Voyager DVD sets (as well as Next Generation) and love them all. One of the greatest things is that I can feel good about sharing these with my granddaughters and watch their love for the characters grow. It's almost like experiencing them for the first time all over again.
the package is somehow cheap September 29, 2009
Adrian Paleacu (timisoara)

the dvd image quality is good but the package is somehow cheap...
