Season Seven Essential Voyager. It's been a long road getting from there to- Wait, wrong show. These *were* the- No. Let's skip the frills and just say it: This is the last edition of Essential Voyager. Sob! Char and Tristan have had a blast evaluating Voyager episode by episode, season by season. Now it all comes full circle in this last installment, where they slash Voyager's final season down to the essentials in this episode of To The Journey. With this multi-part series now concluded, Char and Tristan will need a new angle for reviewing each season. You know they'll find a way just as Voyager found her way home, but will they break the Temporal Prime Directive to do it?

Season Six Essential Voyager. Popular opinion among Voyager fans states that the show hit its peak in seasons four and five. If that is true, then where do the last two seasons stand in comparison to Voyager's heyday? In an effort to answer that question in this episode of To The Journey, Char and Tristan return to their Essential Voyager series. They examine each episode for its importance to the characters, Voyager's journey home, the series as a whole, and condense the season down to mandatory viewing. Listen and find out if Season Six measures up to totals from previous seasons, or if it falls short of expectations...much like a malfunctioning holographic boyfriend.

Essential Voyager, Season Five. It's time once again for Essential Voyager! In this round, Char and Tristan take on Season Five. For a season with several standouts and solid quality overall, it might have been easier to say "just watch them all" and leave it at that, but that doesn't make for good podcasting. Instead, Char and Tristan did their homework and examined each episode for essential-worthy status. Just how many episodes did they keep and how does that affect the overall percentage of Essential Voyager overall? Tune in and find out.

Season Four Essential Voyager Here they go again, Char and Tristan are back with Essential Voyager! This time, they tackle Season Four and examine each episode for essential-worthy status. If the episode has meaning to Voyager's mission home or contains essential character moments, it remains in the timeline. Otherwise, it's chucked from the season faster than Janeway can say "TIIIIME'S UP!" Which episodes from the fourth season prevail and which ones lose their safety net, so to speak? You'll have to tune in to this episode of To The Journey and find out. Hosts Editor Producer Executive Producers Associate Producers Production Manager Content Manager Send us your feedback! |

Essential Voyager, Season Three. The time has come again for Essential Voyager! This time, the victim...er, subject, is Season Three. Char and Tristan review each episode and determine if it's necessary viewing or if it's better off being destroyed by sweaty Janeway and her phaser rifle. It is a season that arguably has the greatest ups and downs in terms of story quality. Does that make Char and Tristan's lives easier or more difficult when determining if an episode is essential to the Voyager story as a whole? Listen on and find out if their choices surprise you.

Season Two Essential Trek. Every season of every Star Trek show there are some episodes that stand out more than others — but which ones are essential to their respective shows as a whole? Char and Tristan try to answer this question by continuing their series of "Essential Voyager," with Season Two. They examine each episode's importance to the season, the show as a whole, as well as its overall quality and determine if it's "must-see TV" or an installment worth bypassing. Listen on and find out if you agree with their choices, or if your rationale gives you a completely different list.

Essential Voyager. The episodic television format has its strengths and weaknesses. The advantage is that the viewer can tune into just about any episode, any time and enjoy it without having to know what happened in previous installments. The downside being that it's harder to build momentum with self-contained episodes. That means that some episodes will shine, while others downright stink. In this episode of To The Journey, Char and Tristan rip a page out of Standard Orbit's book and determine which episodes of Voyager Season One are required viewing. One by one, they review each episode and determine if it's vital Voyager or a waste of time. Listen on and find out how many episodes Char and Tristan kept or tossed out the airlock.
