“I don’t want to die.”
Starting at 9 after the hour…
“it is impossible for me to be more or less than myself”
oh, Tuvok.
Janeway’s dilemma at the end of this episode proved to be controversial. Ken Biller commented, “Different people had different points of view about it […] I got a lot of mail about it. People were really moved. It provoked a lot of discussion about what Janeway had to do.” (Cinefantastique, Vol. 28, No. 4/5) In fact, according to the unauthorized reference book Delta Quadrant (p. 120), this episode was by far the most debated installment from Voyager’s first five seasons, especially on the Internet, over Janeway’s decision to separate Tuvix back into Tuvok and Neelix.
The Internet!
Tuvix is part-orchid now
I like the concept of this episode but I’m having a hard time staying focused
I’m with Kes on this one - if my partner were part of Tuvix, I’d want him back more than anything, too.
Poor Tuvix. This is so sad.
The Doctor’s move here is thought-provoking for his development - in terms of how his conscience functions etc
Wonderful episode, one of the few from Voyager (at least so far) that really had me thinking.
