+ItsOvaNinethousnd too bad Nemesis happened... that being said, Nemesis takes place after Voyager arrived home (after all Janeway makes a cameo appearance!), so Data might very well have had an opportunity to meet the EMH. We'll never know..
Harry, you and I were lucky enough to enjoy the doctor's scintillating exhibition for two full hours. Would it really be fair of us to deny our friends the same unforgettable experience?
Easily one of the funniest Star Trek moments ever. I love how the humor keeps building throughout the scene, even when it cuts away from The Doctor to Chakotay and Harry. Learning that Janeway ordered Chakotay to take the ship in yellow alert thirty minutes into The Doctor's presentation is just so hilarious.
Janeway may be the captain, but she had no grounds for the Yellow Alert after half an hour. She didn't give Chakotay, Kim, or the others who experienced the Doctor's holographic image essay the same courtesy. If the first round of crew members suffered through 2 hours of that, EVERYONE must suffer the exact same amount of time.
"And now for a recitation of poetry by artificial lifeforms. I have found this particular example to be most stimulating: Felis Catus is your taxonomic nomenclature..."
LMAO! Gotta love Chakotay and how he teases Captain Janeway. That smug grin at 1:37 is proof that he'll take a punishment if it means having a little fun at her expense.
This reminds me of the Next Gen episode when the crew were trying to get out of attending some reception. Picard grants it to Worf, but when Geordi tries to ask, he says "Mr. La Forge, I cannot excuse my entire senior staff! Mr. Worf beat you to it." 😂
@chris ince Well, the closest you can get is some fanfiction. Tried a little search and it seems this: www.fanfiction.net/s/5300491/1/Voyager-and-the-Bug is the only one. Sadly, little to no interaction between the "MuDr.H" and "SmegH" I haven't tried searching at other fanfic sites, such as AO3, however.
I always felt sad for the doctor. All he does is try to be friendly and still see as a hologram even tho they allowed his program to expand to get pesnalty and its not till Seven changes the mind of The captain.
Something goes wrong and Tom immediately assumes it was Neelix' fault. Yes, I know he was joking, but a high percentage of the ship's problems where caused by Neelix.
@@Jokie155 Remember when Tom collapsed in 'Threshold' and B'Elanna told the doctor that all he'd ingested was a cup of Neelix's coffee? The Doctor instantly proclaimed that he was 'lucky to be alive'! Neelix's coffee/cooking gets a bad rap from everyone. Even when it ISN'T leola roots.
This reminds me of an episode of Red Dwarf when Rimmer was showing his slides of his Hike through red Dwarf with Krytan. Then robot brains intelligent circuits melted from the boredom lol
0:01 I for one, am amazed at the total lack of fear showed by the doctor, even though all it would take is for one savage inhabitant of the planet to land a lucky hit on the doctor's holo-emitter to potentially cause his program to be deleted forever!!!!!
"What'd you put in this coffee, Neelix?!" One of the best out-of-context lines in the entirety of Voyager imo, right next to Tuvix just blurting out "sex."
There's Tuvok and Vorik on board Voyager and I don't think it was either's reproductive gland. There sure are magnifications in Voyager's medical database.
I love that they gave the doctor this incredible ego, and would never miss an opportunity to show off things to people. (Played absolutely brilliantly by Robert Picardo) . Love that VOY!!
I think only the camera, the shelves in the kitchen, and their cups were shaking. Not sure how they did their cups, but maybe someone's just pushing against their particular table.
Actually, the bowl doesn't seem to shake much, so I doubt their table is being moved. Maybe the cups are special props with a small shaking device inside?
it also depends on how many times he told the story before giving a presentation. if you hear the same thing over and over again then are expected to sit though a presentation with the same information. it gets dull. plus when it's just an ego trip no one wants to hear about it. this wasn't presenting facts it was just him gloating and boasting.
This episode had very disturbing undertones that really should make every person watching, look to their morals , see just what the human race has become and how we got to this position . An inspiring if not altogether sinister side of humanity . There is a " truth" to this episode unlike any other .
@@Dimmary True, but in those thousands of years chairs have undergone some changes. I find it interesting that 1990s office chairs are seen as the peak of chair technology and that's where they stopped making changes. XD
This is why no future will ever be perfect. This guy has a presentation to make, and utilizes the holodeck, gear any number of people alive now would literally give a finger or toe to make ubiquitous, in a way mirroring tech from the 1940's. I mean...really Doc. I get that your a hologram, but I KNOW that doesn't mean you lack creativity. We've all SEEN that little fantasy of yours on the bridge. Well done, btw. Now try applying that imagination to your next presentation. You know. The next time you, as the only pers...being....on the ship that can do more medically than CPR or trigger a hypostim, beams down to a planet (Do holograms "beam"?) and retrieve something. Which happens all the time in the general duties of an EMH. At least on Voyager.
No, holograms do not beam. They need holo emitters to function. If those are present, you can just activate the hologram program at that location. If they are not, then that hologram cannot go there. Doc is an exception because he's got the mobile emitter, which allows him to go anywhere and that thing CAN be beamed over.
Imagine the enemy hacking your army... now it's theirs. Holograms would be great for doing backbreaking, dangerous or toxic jobs... just don't give them weapons (skynet).
I also never figured out why Data had so much trouble achieving sentience, yet apart from some social inadequacies, which seemed to be working as designed judging from his creator, the Doctor seemed to have no problems at all and he wasn't even designed for it unlike Data
+equenoxe86 Well, thus far, I'm having some hope for the announced 2017 Star Trek TV show, which among others has Bryan Fuller (writer of such episodes as Empok Nor, Flesh and Blood, Workforce...) and Rod Roddenberry among it's production staff.
You know your boring everything when even the Vulcan wants to leave a presentation.
That's because Doc started talking about the Vulcan reproductive gland. Tuvok wanted to escape before he brought up the whole pon farr thing.
They should make an entire movie about the doctor and Data meeting up.
+ItsOvaNinethousnd
too bad Nemesis happened... that being said, Nemesis takes place after Voyager arrived home (after all Janeway makes a cameo appearance!), so Data might very well have had an opportunity to meet the EMH. We'll never know..

It wasn't so much that it was boring, but that it was illogical to remain there.

Of course not sir.
“Commander Chakotay appears to have disobeyed a direct order.”
“Definitely grounds for court-martial!”

God I love Chakotay!!!!
1:40 Janeway's body language with that cup. Not even coffee can save her.
When Janeway thrusts her coffee cup in SOMEONE ELSE's hands, you know it's bad!
Easily one of the funniest Star Trek moments ever. I love how the humor keeps building throughout the scene, even when it cuts away from The Doctor to Chakotay and Harry.

they kinda did repeat a lot of themes from TNG

Or Data's poetry
@@thomasrowe5264 Heh, wasn't it a silly poem about his cat?
Its nice how even the plot waited for the doctors presentation to end.
it is the weekly torture of the crew, obviously it shows the professional courtesy to the doctor, from one torturer to another.
"this could be a weekly event."
i bet the entire crew would agree ...
Wow, I don't think I've ever seen Chakotay this animated!
He had so much potential, but unfortunately 90% of the time he was just a budget version of Riker
And I really enjoyed the actor, Robert Beltran, it was just poor writing in my view
Cause he was competent at his job lol. He wasn't sleeping with everyone who came aboard
@@k.t.1641having a personality and being a competent starfleet commander are not mutually exclusive.
Capitan chakotay is. a such. a backstaber
he knows it would happen ?
"Man, the Doctor's photographic essay was am irritating waste of my time and patience.
I know! Let's go and visit Neelix to get over it!"
At least Neellix gives out free food.
@@XX-sp3tt And most importantly the number one recreational drug on tbe ship, coffee
Anybody reminded of Kryten and Rimmer during Rimmer's presentation of his "holiday" in Red Dwarf episode Justice?
Fatigue at people's "home movies" is a long-standing cultural joke.

Got to love the diesel deck this time of year 😂
Chakotay:
24th century Gangsta
Also hot AF.
Shots of unwanted wisdom popped in their cranial cleavages
This show may have had problems with character consistency, but once it got them down, it nailed them.
I always felt sad for the doctor. All he does is try to be friendly and still see as a hologram even tho they allowed his program to expand to get pesnalty and its not till Seven changes the mind of The captain.
He can be a little too self-congratulatory, but he's an excellent character all the same.
You have to admit, the Doc is up his own ass. They do treat him like a collegue but sometimes he is a bit too much lol.
@@Marchant2 so... like a real doctor.
Mark of true friends though, they stayed through the entire presentation.
"Fighting would be preferable." ~ Worf
"Perhaps it is a good day to sleep!"
I can only imagine if Worf had to put up with that.
Tom and the Doc share a scene... It's bound to be funny. LOVE the picture... It's good that Belanna woke up she would've missed it.
mariannedrand omg I just noticed that
Something goes wrong and Tom immediately assumes it was Neelix' fault.
Yes, I know he was joking, but a high percentage of the ship's problems where caused by Neelix.

ah yes, the jike through the diesel deck
Paul Keith *Hike
I wonder if this scene was a nod to Red Dwarf.
Chakotay is evil as hell. LOL
Torres was so stunned she had no time for getting up.
Definitely grounds for court marshal XD
I definitely wanna rewatch this series. It doesn't get the love it deserves.
1:32 Thug Life
I love the look Janeway and Paris share as he starts showing the Vulcan reproductive gland lololol.
Tuvok:
*shifts uncomfortably*
2:43 I'll have what he's having.
0:01 I for one, am amazed at the total lack of fear showed by the doctor, even though all it would take is for one savage inhabitant of the planet to land a lucky hit on the doctor's holo-emitter to potentially cause his program to be deleted forever!!!!!
Has it really been that long, since this series was launched...
How time proverbially flies.
"What'd you put in this coffee, Neelix?!"
One of the best out-of-context lines in the entirety of Voyager imo, right next to Tuvix just blurting out "sex."
Rarely lol irl with star trek "jokes" but this slipped by me I guess, absolutely funny. I love the hate on Neelix food.
Neelix's foreign ingredients are so bad Paris assumes it's the coffee and not the ship. The hedgehog literally made the ship sick TWICE, after all.
And since Tuvok is the only Vulcan on board, it must be his testicle, hence the look on his face at 1:42
wikiporno2 there's at least two Vulcans on board.
There's Tuvok and Vorik on board Voyager and I don't think it was either's reproductive gland. There sure are magnifications in Voyager's medical database.
I would listen to the doctor and laugh, rolling on the floor - at him!
EARTHQUAKE...wait a minute...
SPACEQUAKE!!
I love that they gave the doctor this incredible ego, and would never miss an opportunity to show off things to people. (Played absolutely brilliantly by Robert Picardo) . Love that VOY!!
How the heck did the stage people shake the mess hall? Even the cups on the tables were moving!

Actually, the bowl doesn't seem to shake much, so I doubt their table is being moved. Maybe the cups are special props with a small shaking device inside?
Even more impressive is that the stars are moving too ;p
Tomalak Geret'kal I had never noticed that. Very good point.
Actually, if you look closely, the fruit in the bowl is jumping around.
It always annoyed me whan the voyager crew acted so bored and annoyed when the Doctor gave a presentation. I could sit and watch Picardo chat all day.
Yeah, but after seven years without interruption, I would get bored or crazy, too.
EgolandTed I'm sorry I get flash backs to actual military briefings and you know what it doesn't matter how you dress it up they are all so boring

They weren't *acting* bored...
I would of loved the lecture, imagine being the teachers pet?!
0:10 - Torres is already asleep 😂
I've always been curious how a "trick of light" as Seska called him could pick up stuff and have others touch him.
+Joe Momma Forcefields.
"trick of light" - that was clever wording on Seska's part.
Joe Momma forcefields and I think hard light.
0:58 Talk of the vulcan gland made me notice Tuvok's definite bulge.
It must be an ovary.
God dayum, the Doctor's presentation was so unbearable that even Voyager herself was letting loose her pent up frustration, lol!
That was such a funny scene. :D
This episode had very disturbing undertones that really should make every person watching, look to their morals , see just what the human race has become and how we got to this position . An inspiring if not altogether sinister side of humanity . There is a " truth" to this episode unlike any other .
The Doctor is on a one-man mission to bore his shipmates to death
Toms first instinct is that Neelix dosed em Voyager nights are long
What did you put in this coffee, Neelix?
Starfleet professionals.
Even the door closes on the doctor. 😂
Seriously, Star Trek officers are too, nice.. Nothing would get done with a group so unwilling to speak their mind.
Always blaming the coffee...
I can't help but wonder if the chairs are holograms or if they brought them in from another room
This is why Harry is still an ensign.
He’s doing this in the holodeck and yet he couldn’t be bothered to conjure up more comfortable chairs?
Check out our upcoming sci-fi project featuring Robert Picardo (Star Trek: Voayger) ua-cam.com/video/VqI2rm1UpMY/v-deo.html
I just realized in the Holodeck they are sitting on office chairs...didn’t realize they would still have those same chairs in the 24th century.
Holochairs
We've had chairs for thousands of years lmao
@@Dimmary True, but in those thousands of years chairs have undergone some changes. I find it interesting that 1990s office chairs are seen as the peak of chair technology and that's where they stopped making changes. XD
"Of course you were."
Is'nt this like listening to Siri give a power point about all the stuff you had it do?
What did you put in the coffee???

I never watched much Voyager and never saw their holodeck, was it actually that big? That thing must have taken up half the ship
Data's poetry recital, anyone?
Cave man genom to understand cave drawing
I dont understand why doesn't Starfleet make an army of combat holograms? That would be useful, not just getting lost objects in harsh environments.
Because the Doctors mobile holographic emitter is from the 29th century. Voyager takes place in the 24 century. The technology just isn't there yet.
Ah ok thanks. Better don't lose it then...
because they grand AI all rights. unless they would be stupid AI - stupid enough not to have rights. but than whey would not be all that good.
Imagine the enemy hacking your army... now it's theirs.
Holograms would be great for doing backbreaking, dangerous or toxic jobs... just don't give them weapons (skynet).
How does he manage after the Episode when his Mobile Emitter is fused with Seven's Borg Nanoprobes?
Never did find out what was in that coffee.
Oh the Vulcan reproductive gland. Tuvok tend to get emotional about his spieces reproductive habit
Why didn’t they just deactivate the EHH?
Computer, fast forward for all active programs in the holodeck, including EMH.
I wonder what happens next ! ?
Why are starfleet ships not comprised solely of holodecks, with holo-crews running them?
Daily scrum in a nutshell
I am completely on Chakotay and Harry Kim's side in this.
