‘Star Trek: Voyager’s “Death Wish” Just Turned 30

In 1996, only two Star Trek series were currently being made. Deep Space Nine was well into its seven-season run, while Voyager was just starting out with its second set of episodes. Voyager hadn’t initially been as popular as previous Star Trek shows, and one particularly criticized episode didn’t help. Despite this, Voyager gradually gained a loyal following and is now considered a fan favorite. Like other Star Trek series, Voyager earned its reputation by tackling complex and often sensitive topics that many other shows avoided.
