Star Trek: Voyager: Season 4

4x24 Demon

World building is above average. Stakes are high. That's how it's meant to be: Voyager is too often in too good shape although they take hits and can't rely on supply by the Federation or its repair docks. Voyager lands on a planet surface. Nice to see that again. Even the "enemy" is intriguing. Still, I don't like this episode. For some reason it's boring most of the time. It's oddly paced. The explanation of the phenomenon is given very late in the episode. The finale is nice and memorable but doesn't save the episode. It's strange to see them try again to add some personality to Harry Kim - they of course fail and it seems silly to even try. Perhaps the only interesting thing is that this material reminds me of the stuff that Odo and the Founders are made of. Is there a connection?

I enjoyed this one but feel a big part of the story was omitted.

Did thet get the deuterium in the end?

500 Kelvin hot? Did anyone actually bother to do some elementary school math? That is only about 440 Farenheit. My oven gets hotter than that. It's not even hot enough to set paper on fire.

The inconsistent danger of the Y class planet is very annoying, but otherwise a halfway decent concept.

The writers should have been better with DNA vs memory. We have known DNA does not contain any memory in the conventional sense for several decades before this episode was written

We established in episode 1 that we can't use Holodeck power for anything else (its incompatible); now first sentence of this episode and "replicator, holodeck, and all other nonessentials are off-line"!

That's a massive thing they did here. Dozens of copies of Voyager crew and we just go on our merry way and not even talk about the implications this will have.
I do like they finally showed us that Voyager reached a point where there's no energy to waste even if they turned that part a bit into a comedy.
It's odd that Harry suddenly developes an eagerness to grow. And as much as I usually like him Tom and him together the humor really was flat.
