Twenty Thousand Leagues across the Delta Quadrant.  Throughout Star Trek: Voyager's seven seasons, Tom Paris repeatedly proved his credentials as a mid-20th-century history buff, with his replicated TV set, black-and-white B-movie holonovels, and even his own 3D cinema. But in the fifth-season episode “Thirty Days,” he reveals a boyhood fascination with a much earlier period of history and literature: the age of great nautical exploration. In particular, young Tom was obsessed with Jules Verne's 1870 novel Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea, a pioneering work of science fiction that—in its vivid depiction of the wonders of the ocean—anticipated much of Star Trek's fascination with another vast unknown: space. In this episode of Primitive Culture, host Duncan Barrett is joined by Lee Hutchison to discuss Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea (and the popular 1954 Disney adaptation) in relation to “Thirty Days” and the fourth-season Voyager episode “Year of Hell,” which borrows much of its plot from Verne's novel, transposing the action from Captain Nemo's submarine Nautilus to Annorax's temporal weapon ship. Join us for a deep-dive into the murky depths of this remarkable book, in which madness, monsters, and mutiny are never that far from the surface.

This week on Episode 463 of Priority One --- We ‘Trek Out’ Akiva Goldsman’s Batman and Robin apology and what he has to say about Discovery, Bryan Fuller gets candid, and the cast of Star Trek Voyager reunite for a good cause! In Star Trek Gaming, Star Trek Online’s No-win Scenario re-emerges, and says “To Hell With Honor,” and lastly we welcome Fazri Zubair of Lucid Sight’s Crypto Space Commander! CQ: Would a season long “Year of Hell” be something you’d want to see as dedicated Star Trek Series? Akiva Goldsman Chats with Collider Last week, we told you about a Collider interview with Star Trek producer, director, and writer Akiva Goldsman. On Friday May 29th, the video of that interview was posted to Collider’s youtube channel, and it contained a slew of new information. Goldman apologized for “Batman and Robin” - it was heart-felt, but we’re not sure it was enough...BUT...he also talked a bit more about Star Trek. Strap in, because this week we’ve got AUDIO! Goldsman told Collider he was not involved with Discovery’s third season, but did have some information on what’s to come, saying “So Alex [Kurtzman] has really been deeply involved in the building out of what season three looks like and what that post-Federation future is. I have seen some of it because, you know, we all work together in the same - or we did - place with lots of Star Trek pictures on the wall and editing bays and things, you know. It seems awesome to me. It’s not a final frontier but it is a new one.” - Akiva Goldsman Goldsman also revealed an interesting tidbit about Discovery’s jump to the distant future: “We all helped build that idea, all the way back to season one. Aaron Harberts and Gretchen Berg, the original showrunners from season one, that idea dates all the way back to that. I think it is a spectacular idea, which is to go post the timeline we know.” - Akiva Goldsman Bryan Fuller Talks “Voyager” Bryan Fuller is to Voyager what Jonathan Frakes is to Next Gen. Every time the man speaks, he leaves juicy audio clips in his wake. This week, the former-Voyager staff writer sat down with the la “Inglorious Treksperts” podcast to celebrate Voyagers Silver Anniversary, and sprinkled trek nuggets all up in our sauce. Fuller discussed the push-and-pull between Voyager’s creative team and then-Trek-Head-Rick-Berman, saying: ”I think what was interesting in the evolution of the show, which you could sense the creative struggle. And I witnessed the creative struggle when I was working there. And there was an appetite for these bigger, bolder science fiction stories. And there was a lot of resistance from Rick Berman in embracing them because he was chasing The Next Generation and was not allowing Voyager to be the show that it could be.” - Bryan Fuller But Fuller wasn’t done. He went on to describe the writer’s room’s plan to make one of Star Trek’s best two-parters - “Year of Hell” - a season long arc, and Berman’s reaction. "The “Year of Hell” and the behind-the-scenes drama around trying to craft not only that episode, but that season, was fascinating because we wanted “Year of Hell” to last the entire season. We wanted to see Voyager get its [EXPLETIVE] kicked every episode and through that season was going to be marbled the story of Annorax and the time ship that was changing things. So, we would go back to it every once in a while to remind the audience that’s  the larger story. But because Deep Space Nine had made Rick Berman allergic to serialized storytelling, violently so [we did not]” - Bryan Fuller When asked why Fuller thought Deep Space Nine was able to get away with things Voyager wasn’t, Fuller pulled no punches. "Ira [Steven Behr] didn’t give a [EXPLETIVE] what Rick Berman said, and Brannon [Braga] did. Ira was like, “I don’t care, you’re wrong. This is what we’re doing and fire me if you want to.’ He was always like ‘Fire me. If you don’t like what I’m doing, fire me, but this is what we’re doing. So if you’re not behind it, then I suggest you find someone else to do my job’” - Bryan Fuller “Stars in the House” Voyager Reunion After 25 years, a reunion is in order! And that’s exactly what happened on Tuesday, May 26th. The cast of Star Trek: Voyager met via Zoom, along with Seth Rudetsky and James Wesley - hosts of “Stars in the House” - to talk Trek - but more importantly - to raise money for “The Actor’s Fund” charity. The one hour meeting - which was organized by the “Stars in the House” hosts and Voyager’s Robert Picardo - was a fun way to look at Voyager’s behind-the-scenes dynamic. Robert Duncan McNeil - portrayer of helmsman Tom Paris and He-Man pal Kevin Corrigan - talked about Kate Mulgrew’s first day on set. Mulgrew put on the jumpsuit after the departure of Geneviève Bujold: Voyager’s first Captain Janeway. "There was a lot of uncertainty, I guess, when Geneviève left. There was a lot of uncertainty. Was the show going to get made? You know, were they going to make it a male captain? Maybe they couldn’t find a female who they felt could do this. And the moment you said the first line on the bridge, personally I felt like ‘this shows going to work. We’re going to make it. Now it’s is all together.’” - Rober Duncan McNiel Mulgrew, who has expressed interest in returning to the role of Janeway, was eager to ask former co-star and current Picard actor Jeri Ryan about what’s going on with Star Trek’s newest series. "What’s the plan, now, going  forward. Nobody knows anything” to which Ryan replied: "We were originally supposed to start shooting in the middle of June, but they would have had to started building the sets in the middle of May, which we can’t do So we’re just waiting.They’re hoping that  we can start shooting in the beginning of fall. I don’t know.” - Jeri Ryan BLACK LIVES MATTER This week, Priority One: A Roddenberry Star Trek Podcast did not record its 463rd episode live. It has been our weekly goal to entertain and inform our listeners of the goings-on in the Star Trek Multiverse. We like to consider ourselves an enjoyable distraction to your everyday lives; but, sometimes, it’s irresponsible to ignore what is happening in the world. This week in the United States, protests and rioting erupted when George Floyd was murdered by members of the Minneapolis Police Department. Floyd’s death, centuries of oppression, systemic racism, police violence, and discrimination of Black and Brown Americans have sparked protests at home and abroad. On June 2nd, Star Trek.com showed its support for the Black Lives Matter movement. A three minute clip of Deep Space Nine’s “Far beyond the Stars” starts with a simple message: “Black Lives Matter. Black Culture Matters. Black Communities Matter. We stand in solidarity with our Black colleagues, creators, partners and audience and condemn all acts of racism, discrimination, and senseless acts of violence.” In the article accompanying the video, there is a link to Black Lives Matter's call for a sustainable transition in our communities. We have included a link to the Black Lives Matter petition below. https://blacklivesmatter.com/ Additionally, we're teaming up with trekmovie.com as #TrekkiesUnite against those same injustices and inequalities. https://trekmovie.com/2020/06/03/star-trek-websites-and-podcasts-unite-ask-trekkies-to-support-organizations-fighting-injustice/ Tonight, we cannot pretend to overlook what is happening in the United States. Tonight, we stand with our brothers and sisters fighting against injustice. Tonight, we reflect on #BlackOutTuesday Tonight – and every night – we must remain attentive, we must continually educate ourselves with facts, and we must unite in solidarity to protect this nation – and others - against injustice, tyranny, and oppression. Live Long & Prosper through Infinite Diversity in Infinite Combinations. No-Win Scenario by Advisorypanda The Event Campaign II resumes on June 4th for PC, and on June 30th for console, but at the greatest cost. Apologies to Captain Kirk, but the No-Win Scenario is real and it is here. Playing either the "Arena of Sompek" or "Kobayashi Maru" TFOs every day during the 21-day event will grant you honor and glory, along with 50 Event Campaign Progress and Daily Progress towards the No-Win Scenario Event grand prize. The grand prize includes 3 Featured TFO boxes, 25,000 dilithium ore, and a new account-unlocked ship with Admiralty card: the scaling T4 Kobayashi Maru Freighter for Fed and Fed-aligned characters, and the Tong’Duj Freighter for KDF and KDF-aligned characters. While Freighters are as well-suited for combat as a Ferengi with an ear infection [Ferengi scream here], they offer on-board access to amenities like the Exchange, Bank, expanded Transwarp, and special Trade duty officer missions. Even better, you can go to and from your Freighte’s interior from any other ship rather than fully switching between the two. Link to the stats in the show notes. Note that, while it’s possible to do everything right and still lose in life, that’s not quite true for the event. The event TFOs now have designated end points (Maru at level 6, Sompek at level 7) and cannot be failed before reaching them. Which makes them "Always-Win Scenarios," if we’re being honest. Also, the TFOs’ untimed/infinite versions will also be disabled but the event TFOs will not have cooldowns. So will you find an honorable end as you fly into the face of certain doom? How many petaQs will you take with you, as the dread tyrant’s lighting turns your teammates into scorch marks? You’ll have plenty of chances to find out. Pray that today is a good day to die, for you will not see another. To Hell With Honor by Advisorypanda While PC captains are facing their own mortality, console captains will confront J’Ula and attempt to end her spurious sporulation spree. "To Hell with Honor" pits players against the temporally-displaced Klingon matriarch and her Elachi pawns, as they race to destroy House Mokai’s ship bases and mycelial rifts on the Beta Lankai moon. The TFO premiered with the 10th Anniversary Event on PC, and is finally making its way to XBox and PS4 from June 2nd through June 30th as its own To Hell with Honor event. This will also be part of the Event Campaign II for consoles, with daily play netting captains 50 Event Campaign Progress and one Daily Progress. The R2-D...sorry, DOT-7 ground drone pet and kit module will unlock for all characters on an account after acquiring 14 Daily Event Progress, along with the usual 3 Featured TFO Boxes and 25,000 dilithium ore. I hope you love Klingon Wagner and the smell of mycelium in the morning: smells like victory. Khitomer Alliance Kit Arrives! by Shane Hoover https://www.arcgames.com/en/games/star-trek-online/news/detail/11450753-join-the-khitomer-alliance%21 The galaxy united to fight off the Iconians. Then it united again to defend itself against the Hur’q onslaught. And only recently that alliance came together to design the Khitomer Alliance Battlecruiser. Now your Star Trek Online captain can proudly wear the uniform and the ship livery of the Khitomer Alliance. As announced via news blog this week, STO are freely giving away the new cross-faction Khitomer Alliance uniform and the new Khitomer Alliance vanity shield until June 16th. To see how you think the Alliance factions may have influenced the new uniform, Trek out the blog link in the show notes.

Top Tip by AdvisoryPanda In an effort to lend a hand to new players --- or even surprise the most veteran captains in Star Trek Online -- here’s our top tip! Control ship builds will frequently center around the Gravity Well ability, drawing enemy ships together to create a cascade of warp core breaches. However, some ship weapons do not play well with this tactic and should be avoided. The Dark Matter Quantum Torpedo and Omega Heavy Plasma Torpedo launchers will cause ships to disintegrate upon defeat, rather than detonate. Avoid these torpedos or your deliciously destructive chain reaction will be over before it begins.

Have you ever been in a situation where you wish the year you were enduring would simply reset and allow you to start over while avoiding all the horribleness? Well then this episode is for you! Join your reality-fatigued hosts as they discuss Voyager's fourth season two-parter, 'Year of Hell.' Is it genocide if the people never existed? Is manipulating the timeline any different than contemporary mechanisms of influence, such as war-making or the aggressive application of political and economic power? We unfortunately failed to discuss the most important question of all: is Annorax partial to anoraks? Regardless, we cover a lot of ground in this one! Next week: We investigate Odo's past (and enjoy another appearance by the great Kurtwood Smith) in Deep Space Nine's fifth season episode, 'Things Past' - prepare to trek back in time to Terok Nor!

Civilizációkat töröl ki a világmindenség téridő-szövetéből a Krenim Birodalom helyreállításán fáradozó Annorax, aki temporális végítélet fegyverét csupán személyes vesztesége miatt veti be újra és újra: míg Annorax évszázadok óta zajló hajszát vív a szeszélyesen viselkedő időfolyammal, a Voyager legénysége sosem látott módon sínyli meg a kronoton torpedók és a szakadatlan temporális-ámokfutás következményeit. Aktuális adásunk témája a Voyager ‘Pokoli év’ című duplaepizódja. Rövid hírszekció: • A következő Star Trek mozifilm kidolgozásánál Noah Hawley teljes mértékben a saját útját járja, ezért véleménye szerint "Star Trek 4" címen emlegetni a projektet félrevezető lehet. Az egyedi történet akár azt is jelentheti, hogy a produkció új szereplőkkel valósul meg. • Most már hivatalos, hogy a Star Trek: Picard 2. évada is zöld utat kapott és már tervezés alatt áll. A showrunner a 12 majom sorozatadaptációjáról ismerhető Terry Matalas - aki korábban a Voyager és Enterprise sorozatoknál is közreműködött. A Picard 1. évadánál pedig folytatódik a Facebookon nézhető aftershow, a Ready Room, aminek Wil Wheaton lesz a műsorvezetője. A kibeszélő tartalmából: • A pokoli év kifejezés, és a leamortizált Voyager (az étkezdében kialakított gyengélkedővel) az ‘Előtte és utána’ (Before and After, VOY 3x21) című epizódban mutatkozott be (melyben Kes visszafelé ugrál az időben). Brannon Bragának annyira megtetszett a leharcolt hajó, valamint a pokoli év szóhasználat, hogy mindenképpen szeretett volna egy ilyen epizódot. A társszerző Joe Menosky szerint Bragánál amúgy sem volt ritka az a fajta munkafolyamat, hogy egy epizód kidolgozásánál a konkrét történetet megelőzően először egy erős vizuális benyomás, egy kép, ugrik be neki. • Az eredeti tervek szerint Tuvok nem csupán a látását, de az egyik lábát is elvesztette volna, ez pedig egy Forrest Gump szerű számítógépes trükk segítségével valósult volna meg. Több sérülést is kitaláltak, de végül ezekre nem jutott erőforrás. • Brannon Braga eredetileg négyrészes történetet akart. Azt is eltervezte, hogy a hajó a szezon végéig maradjon lerobbanva (tehát nem lett volna reset a sztori végén). A stúdiónak és Rick Bermannak nem tetszett az ötlet. Joe Menosky nem szerette, hogy a Voyager egyszerűen csak belerongyol az időhajóba a történet végén, Annorax szövegein viszont - ahol megszemélyesíti az időt - imádott dolgozni. • Ebben az epizódban a készítők a sorozat határai között a végsőkig feszítették a húrt, a meg nem valósított elképzelések talán már a televíziós science-fiction új korszakának eljövetelére vártak.

A szokásos epizódkibeszélő helyett ezúttal élménybeszámolók hangzanak el a június utolsó napján tartott második Űrszekerek közösségtalálkozóról, valamint a Stuttgartban rendezett Comic Con Germany-ről, ahol Attila Marina Sirtis-szel, és a nemzetközi rajongótábor számos képviselőjével találkozott. Hírszekció: - Július 1-én született Geneviève Bujold, aki mindössze két napig volt a Voyager kapitánya Kate Mulgrew előtt. Július 3-án Kurtwood Smith ünnepelte a születésnapját, aki a Föderáció elnökét játszotta A nem ismert tartományban, de a Voyagerben is láthattuk Annorax szerepében, aki a pokoli év idején volt a krenim parancsnok. Július 7-én az Enterprise Forrest admirálisát megszemélyesítő Vaughn Armstrongnak, és a Discovery első évadán dolgozó rendező/producernek, Akiva Goldsmannak is születésnapja volt, nyolcadikán pedig Shazad Latifnak (Tyler), akit elfelejtettünk bemondani. - A Discovery kreatív vezetősége átrendeződik: James Duff, A főnök (The Closer) és a Gyilkos ügyek (Major Crimes) alkotója vezető producerként csatlakozik a stábhoz, ezen kívül Olatunde Osunsanmi, aki az első évadban két epizódot is rendezett, társproducerből szintén vezető producerré lép elő. A San Diego Comic Con-on hatalmas Discovery panel készülődik. - Zachary Quinto egy podcastben azt nyilatkozta, hogy a Tarantino ötletéből készülő Star Trek mozi szerinte egy Kelvin film lesz. A Spockot alakító színész a közelgő negyedik mozifilmről is beszélt. A kibeszélő tartalmából: - Űrszekerek közösségtalálkozó - A Parallaxis LIVE-ban Dr. Vincze Miklós segítségével a közönség előtt is megvizsgáltuk a leggyakrabban látható Star Trek technológiák tudományos megalapozottságát, az élő Médiazabálókban pedig Ádám beszélgetett a meghívott magyarhangokkal: Kassai Károly, Jakab Csaba, Szersén Gyula és Németh Gábor felejthetetlen élményt szállított. Az eseményt az Impulzus kvízzel koronáztuk meg. - Comic Con Germany - Attila hosszú utat tett meg a németországi rendezvényig, ahol kedvenc színésznőjével, Marina Sirtissel személyesen is felvette a kapcsolatot. Exkluzív beszámoló a stuttgarti con részleteiről, ahogy Attila látta.

Regardless of overall quality, it's tough to argue against the inherent strength of Voyager's central premise. A crew lost in the wilderness trying to find its way home while overcoming adversity both internal and external? Bursting with dramatic potential! And although most regular episodes fell short of exploiting this concept, the two-parters were another story. This week hosts Cam Smith and Tyler Orton, along with special guest Janine Smith, stare longingly at their antique pocket watches while revisiting the tremendous Year of Hell saga, arguably Captain Janeway's most punishing and traumatic challenge as a leader. In addition to breaking down the well-known story elements of this hard-hitting fourth season highlight, the trio also discuss Annorax's similarities to classic Bond villains, the series' woefully underexplored Tuvok/Seven dynamic and the alleged sexiness of Tom Paris.

In Andy's favorite Voyager episode, he and Jessica discuss: Andy's favorite because he loves timey-wimey, but Janeway does not This is an epic adventure where nothing happens Character moments from Tuvok, 7 of 9 and crew 47!

"Year of Hell" Commentary.   The two-part episode "Year of Hell" is taken by many to be one of the highlights of season four of Star Trek: Voyager, if not of the entire Voyager series. From memorable moments with a certain replicated pocket watch to Annorax's Captain Ahab-like quest against time itself, "Year of Hell" shows the strength of the Voyager crew as a family, even in Voyager's darkest hours (the Voyager reset button aside).

Voyager is not in the best of shape. Down a nacelle and most of her crew, Janeway leads a skeleton crew trying to hold the ship together with spit and prayer, and the strain, particularly on Janeway, is beginning to show. Chakotay and Paris are still being held by Annorax and his obsession with correcting the timeline.

We look at the Voyager two-parter "Year of Hell" and consider questions like: Would this concept have worked for an entire season? Is it possible for Captain Janeway to kick more ass? How does Annorax stack up as a Trek villain? And how great would Tuvok and Seven have been as sitcom roommates?

Alternate Krenim temporal weapon ship designs discovered In the Voyager episode "Year of Hell," scientist-gone-mad Annorax possessed one of the most dangerous weapons in Star Trek, a temporal weapon ship. This giant vessel with its unique shape and beam that could literally push its target out of the space-time continuum almost did in Janeway and her crew. We all know what this ship looked like in the episodes, but as it turns out it wasn't always quite what we saw. Just after finishing the magazine that accompanies the Official Starships Collection reproduction, Eaglemoss uncovered some lost designs by artist Rick Sternbach. See Sternbach's designs at StarTrek.com.   Scotty's jacket goes under the gavel in Belfast In The Search for Spock, Scotty helped Kirk steal the Enterprise. And now some lucky person in Belfast gets to steal Scotty's jacket. Well, not steal it… but get it at a potentially bargain-basement price. More than 1,000 pieces of rare sci-fi memorabilia seized from a criminal couple are going on auction in the Northern Ireland city and include not only six sets of costumes from Star Trek but also items from Star Wars and Doctor Who. Find out more from the Belfast Telegraph.

Those Bad Guys. They’re the characters we can’t live with, and can’t live without. In this episode of To The Journey Tristan, Charlynn, and Lorrie have a three-round discussion of the characters we love to hate. Our list takes us from “Caretaker” all the way to “Endgame” with plenty of stops in between. We learn that Lorrie finds “Unforgettable“‘s Kellin quite forgettable, Char wishes Seska would’ve chosen better frenemies, and Tristan finds Red, I mean Annorax, a compelling creep. Who did you love to hate?    Send us your feedback!
