The Vidiians

This episode of 'Make It So' delves into the intricate narratives of Star Trek: Voyager, focusing on the compelling and dark storyline of the Vidiian species with hosts Baz Greenland and Geoff Owen, alongside guest Ian Buckley, a notable Star Trek enthusiast.

They provide in-depth analysis of the Vidiian arcs through episodes like 'Phage', 'Faces', and 'Life Signs', leading to a comprehensive breakdown of 'Deadlock', noted for its suspense and exploration of alternate realities. 

Additionally, the hosts explore Voyager's missed opportunities in character development, particularly with Harry Kim and Naomi Wildman, and critique the series' final handling of the Vidiians, suggesting potential for more nuanced resolutions.

The episode contrasts Voyager's storytelling with that of Star Trek: The Next Generation, highlighting unexplored arcs and critiquing the evolution of certain character dynamics, especially between Chakotay and Janeway.

This engaging discussion celebrates Voyager's bold themes while speculating on how unexplored storylines could have enriched the series.
