Happy Birthday to the Threshold Ba- Wait... [Patreon | Commissions]

[tuttle-did-it]

Okay you beautiful things. Need more Threshold? Why not listen to ST:VOY actors Robbie Duncan McNeil (Tom Paris) and Garrett Wong (Harry Kim) go through the episode and share their thoughts about it on their podcast the Delta Flyers? They started with ST:VOY and are now on DS9. You can listen for free to all of them, but relevant specifically today is the episode Threshold. Go to the link below and type in 'Threshold' in the search bar.

I quite appreciate this episode because Robbie defends the episode. I like him in general, I think he makes a lot of good points, and I also like him on Delta Flyers cos he's got no problem calling out when things are problematic, etc.

For those folks, like myself, who are d/Deaf/HoH, you probably already know this but several browsers have a captioning option available (as does any apple product), so you can read the captions as they talk. Not perfect, but it works well enough.

There are videos of each episode they do, including Threshold, which you can see if you are a patreon (more info at that link).

He really cares, KJ

The first time I watched Coda, I got all fixated on Chakotay putting his ACTUAL lips on Janeway's ACTUAL lips.

Breathe. Breathe. Breeeeeeeathe.

And his absolute groundswell of emotion over losing her... not to go all 18th Century Poet on this love story, but damn, a guy who grieves like that has send-me-to-an-asylum-on-the-Moor levels of love for this lady.

Swoon. Move over, Rochester.

But then, the funeral.

What the actual stoic? Why so eyes dry Chakotay? Et tu, Commander?

Upon a recent re-watch, I realized that Chakotay on the planet with the CPR lips and the grieving is how he reacts in real-time to Kathryn's real-time death.

The funeral, on the other hand, is a manipulated, imagined version of how people feel about her. Yes, there are some kind words, but not nearly enough grief from everyone.

Especially Colonel Chakotay Rochester...

While watching Coda this time, I realized that the funeral isn't evidence of how people actually feel about her. It's evidence of how she believes she is regarded by her crew.

And how she believes she is regarded by Chakotay.

It's also demonstrative of how much she has distanced herself from romance in order to survive this DQ life. She can't believe that Chakotay would grieve or struggle with the depth of emotion he feels for her because that would mean she has to admit her own feelings.

Or worse: she genuinely can't accept that he cares about her that deeply...

Either way, it's an unforgettable character moment.

He really does care. She really can't see that care.

Daft, lovable idiots.

the best part about starting a voyager rewatch is reexperiencing how gorgeous the theme song is and knowing that im about to hear it 171 more times

[videoworm]

im at the episode where B'Elana get depression and every time im so mad shes magically healed after 1 episode bc its actually good representation.

they got the emotional numbness the depersonalization the self-isolation, the trouble making decisions, zoning out, ect... B'Elana is normally a character i care less about but in this episode she hits the nail on the head!
