My husband and I, who are both die-hard TNG fans, recently started watching through the Voyager series for the first time. So far, we're really enjoying it. This episode was no exception. I see that it has received a lot of negative reviews, but I found it entertaining.
Murder mysteries are fun. This one was well done I thought, as I did not suspect who the real murderer was until it was revealed. Yes, the alien race looked funny with feathers glued to their heads, but it's all good. I don't watch Star Trek for realism, I watch it to be entertained by the creative storylines and characters. And I did find the creative makeup jobs here entertaining, as well as the story itself.
What I liked best about this episode is that it prominently featured Tuvok and developed his character. He was already my favourite character, but now I like him even more. The actor, Tim Russ, does a wonderful job of presenting the highly logical and dispassionate Vulcan personality.
