Superb series...full of extras!
Just had to respond to the 2 "reviews" on this page, and confirm that these boxsets certainly DO contain all the extras that were found on the original boxsets. So even more reason to get them!!
Star Trek Voyager's Fifth & Possibly Greatest Season
This is the fifth season of Star Trek Voyager, and the boxed set contains all twenty six episodes as well as some interesting special features. Picture and sound quality on the DVD release is excellent, and offers the added incentive of being able to watch without constantly being interrupted by commercials.
Voyager is a science fiction television show that is set in the twenty forth century. Each episode follows the adventures of the U.S.S. Voyager a Federation Starship that becomes stranded on the other side of the galaxy. Her Captain (played by Kate Mulgrew) and her crew must find a way to get home, and face the prospect of spending their entire lives travelling across unknown and usually hostile space.
There are various incantations of Star Trek such as this Voyager, but also Enterprise, Deep Space Nine, The Next Generation and of course the Original Star Trek. While each are based around the same idea, each is somewhat different from the other, and as a result every fan of Star Trek, or Science Fiction, will have their own personal favourite. Voyager is mine, and while it may not be the most serious of the Star Trek universe, I find it the most gripping, the most involving, and where we really get to know the various characters.
This fifth season has to be one of Voyager's best as it offers so much. Many of the episodes are nothing less than brilliant and a true credit to the show. Episodes such as "Drone" where the Doctor and Seven accidentally create a 29th Century Borg. "In The Flesh" we see Species 8472 planning an invasion of Earth. The great and epic "Timeless" episode where a future Chakotay and Kim try to prevent Voyager's destruction. "Bliss" where the crew are tricked into thinking they've found a way back home where in fact there flying into the stomach of a massive space organism. The two part "Dark Frontier," "Relativity," the list goes on and on, but needless to say all make for a very enjoyable season.
I would normally include a list highlighting the best parts of the season, but in the case of season five, there are far too many too include. But there really are some exceptional moments that do deserve a mention such as watching Seven Of Nine (played by Jeri Ryan) singing, and the showdown between Janeway and Captain Ransom.
The cast and crew should be given a pat on the back, as they have managed to create and work with some excellent scripts, ideas and episodes plots, to create something that is truly admirable. The acting from the cast is second to none as all makes from a very entertaining and enjoyable experience.
Well it's taken me a while but I've finally managed to watch and review all seven seasons of Voyager. I hope these reviews have been helpful to you, and I hope that I have done justice to the show that is a great piece of science fiction.
Naturally if your new to Star Trek Voyager, then it would be a idea to start watching from the first season to get a better understanding of the show. If your already a fan, then I hope you already have the boxed sets, if not it's time to buy them all.
actually...
I'd just like to re-affirm that it does contain all the bonus features, i got my copy this morning.
Great quality videos, pretty cool menu screens and the features are great too.
I'd advise people to make sure they know things for sure before they go bitching on amazon reviews.
