If the first season of Star Trek: Voyager was a shakedown cruise, then season 2 represents a vital blossoming of the series' potential. As Captain Janeway, Kate Mulgrew maintained Starfleet integrity in the lawless expanse of the Delta quadrant, and became the ethical conscience of her still-uneasy Maquis/Starfleet crew, whose unanimous loyalty would be dramatically proven in 'The '37's' (a first-season hold-over). Janeway's moral guidance would also assert itself in 'Death Wish' (a 'Q' episode featuring NextGen's Jonathan Frakes) and 'Tuvix,' in which life-or-death decisions landed squarely on her shoulders. Season 2 brought similar development to all the primary characters, deepening their relationships and defining their personalities, especially Robert Beltran as Chakotay (in 'Initiations' and 'Tattoo'), now firmly established as Janeway's best friend (and nearly more than that, in 'Resolutions') and command-decision confidante.
Solid sci-fi concepts abound in season 2, although 'Threshold' is considered an embarrassment (as confessed by co-executive producer Brannon Braga in a self-deprecating 'Easter Egg' interview clip). It was a forgivable lapse in a consistently excellent season that intensified Janeway's struggle with the villainous Kazon, exacerbated by a Starfleet traitor in cahoots with the duplicitous Cardassian Seska (played by Martha Hackett, featured in a lively guest-star profile). The psychologically intense 'Meld' (featuring a riveting guest performance by Brad Dourif) was a Tuvok-story highlight, and the aptly titled 'Basics, Pt. 1' provided an ominous cliffhanger, including a second planetary landing (in a season full of impressive special effects) that left Voyager's fate in question. DVD extras are abundant and worthwhile, especially the season 2 retrospective and 'A Day in the Life of Ethan Phillips' (who plays Neelix under a daily ordeal of latex makeup). Several Easter egg surprises--including a music video performance by Tim Russ (Tuvok)--are hidden (but easily found) among the 'Special Features' menus on disc 7. All in all, this was one of Voyager's finest seasons, leaving some enticing questions to be answered in season 3. --Jeff Shannon

Rating: - Continuing Voyages
The crew of the USS Voyager has been transported 70,000 light years from home and the trip back is estimated to take 70 years. They have been underway for about 6 months at the opening of the second season, when they pick up a trail of rust particles that ultimately leads them to a colony of human descended from people abducted by aliens in the 1930s. Other adventures include more encounters with the Kazon, a very distorted starship, experiments with Warp 10 and a visit from Q. Couched in a science fiction environment, many episodes featured questions and ideas that face us both when the shows originally aired and today, a decade later.
Rating:  - GREAT SCI-FI
Voyager's second season had some of the best stories ever, most notablely.
shows like Innocence , The Thaw, The 37's prototype, non sequitur, Meld, and the rest. Many give a chance to highlight of the stars which also gave us a chance to understand them a little more as the seasons advanced
Janeway, a cross between Kirk and Picard in how she Captains this lost ship makes the show worth watching, However the rest of the cast can not be dismissed.
this is when I started watching the show. It was truly a great addition to the Star trek franchise. Now that they cut the price too be sure to add this to your set. Its worth it watching

Rating: - Arguably the best of the Star Trek franchise
The series that brought us back to the original premise of Gene Roddenberry's vision for Star Trek - To Seek Out New Life and Civilizations. Instead of being safe at home on our side of the galaxy, the Voyager crew are thrown into the "deep" end of the galaxy and on their journey back home, they are to encounter things unknown to the Federation. I've even had friends that are not fans tell me they enjoyed the show. It's just good TV.
Rating: - Voyager Second Time Around
Star Trek was entering it's 30'th anniversary when Star Trek Voyager began it's sophmore season so there was a great deal of hoopla surrounding this season. In terms of the show the feeling was different.Unlike in the first season where the crew of Voyager were dealing with all their new challanges,this season found them truly facing the unknown from another "cartaker" trying to manipulate Kes in "Cold Fire" to Janeway meeting up with her hero Amelia Earheart in 'The 37's'. This also marks the first appearance of Q in this series,on this occasion moderating a fellow Q's wish to commit suicide in the excellent and topical 'Death Wish'. The doctor also found love and Chakotay discovered an ancient riddle of his people in 'Tattoo';many of the episodes in this season had a slightly surreal and mystical bent as everything of familiarity to the Voyager crew started to be questioned. Even in 'Alliances" Janeway cites the Delta Quadrant as a region of space without many rules.This season also works out some kinks in the shows construction;the Kazon were a rather uninteresting and poorly written adversary and came off as little more then a poor man's Klingon. So a series of story arcs come into play during this season in which they made their exit;a trader on the Voyager crew betrays unformation to the equally tretchurous Seska until being foiled by Neelix. Then Seska lies to Chakotay about having his baby (it's actually the Kazon Cullah's) and,in the cliffhanger the Kazon story is concluded after a ... Read More
