Goofs

The doctor makes it back with the crew at the end, in fact he is at the party in the beginning which takes place 10 years after Voyager's 23 year journey home. But in Star Trek: Voyager: Living Witness his program had been taken offline and turned back on 700 years later in the Delta Quadrant. However, the two doctors were different copies. The one on Living Witness was a backup copy (like a flash drive or DVD) and the one who made it back to the Alpha Quadrant was the original.

Quotes

[images are displayed of Voyager's arrival over a firework-illuminated San Francisco]
News Speaker: These should be familiar images to everyone who remembers USS Voyager's triumphant return to Earth after 23 years in the Delta Quadrant. Voyager captivated the hearts and minds of the people throughout the Federation. So it seems fitting that on this, the tenth anniversary of their return, we take a moment to recall the sacrifices made by the crew. - Corruption charges were brought...

User Reviews

A great ending to the series

Some series finales stink, but this one is about as non-stinky as you can get. In fact, this double-length show is among the best in the series--something very rare for any finale.

When the show begins, you learn that Voyager was gone a total of 23 years and has now been back on Earth a decade. The Captain is now an admiral and she's quite gray. However, she also has a secret plan-- one that is not acceptable to the powers that be because it's playing fast and loose with the temporal time directive. What her plan is eventually comes to light--she plans to somehow go through time to Voyager in the seventh year of its voyage home. Then, giving them technology from the future, it will allow Voyager both to kick the crap out the Borg AND use their technology to get to Earth 18 years earlier--and, in doing this, save several members of the crew who died during the 23 year trip.

This episode has everything going for it. This older Janeway is NOT the touch-feely nice lady she was in the rest of the series--she was VERY willing to play fast and loose with the rules. Plus, she seemed very willing to commit mass genocide against the Borg. This is EXACTLY what most fans of the series probably always wanted and it makes for a very exciting and fun episode that isn't to be missed.
