Oh, fuck Berman in the nose -- that was a good idea. "Year of Hell" would have made a great whole season. The studio should have taken the chance, rather than ruin the Borg.
What's in YOUR 'head canon'?

The Christopher Pike Medal of Valor may have been named for Pike because of his rescuing cadets at great personal cost, the accident that ultimately left him disfigured. What do you think?
^ Very likely. IIRC, Pike was the only casualty in that incident, wasn't he?
I like it. Consider it hereby headcanoned!
My "head canon" is that Vader knew about Luke; he was awaiting for a time when he could bring his son into "the family business" should it becomes necessary to go after Palpatine. However, he didn't know about either Ben Kenobi or about Leia, who was purposely hidden as an "ace" against both Vader and Palpatine. In fact, it would have been better if Leia was Luke's "half-sister", but with the same mother (who later married Bail after "Anakin Skywalker" had "died". I would also have stretched out the years between RotS and a ANH, and just focused on the Clone Wars in the prequels, and have no Darth Vader (he would have his own stand alone film called "Darth Vader: A Star Wars Story, which focuses directly on how Anakin Skywalker was "murdered" by Darth Vader). But, that's me.
Living Witness involves convoluted timelines and a mirror universe permutation.
Basically the mobile emitter from one timeline fell into another timeline and the Kyrians remembered another.
It's really convoluted and complicated but it solves the backup emitter from problem.

Not a voyager fan; never seen the episode, but this one makes me almost curious enough to watch. The only other Voyager episode I've watched in the last 10 years is the Star Trek VI crossover.
Just from the description, the "false history" sounds as equally possible to be "recreated wrong" as it is to be the events of Mirror Counterparts. The latter is far more intriguing of a story.
What is the back up emitter problem you referred to?
I'm liking this thought, though; it would imply that the Doctor they reactivated is (a copy) from the Prime Universe, while the world that encountered the Warship Voyager (and the episode itself) was all taking place within the Mirror Universe.
Something like that, and in my head canon I can pretend Warlord Janeway actually existed!
the Trek-universe has never been all that good at possessing accurate histories.
In my Star Wars head cannon, the Imperial storm troopers are great shots, but the ones on the Death Star were instructed to shoot badly and get killed so that the Falcon could escape and lead the Death Star to the rebel base.
There was an inconsistency with the doctor in the episode having a backup emitter that was never shown before or since and I think ruined for a lot of people what was probably the best Voyager episode and one of Trek's best.
So the backup came from some permutation of the prime timeline where they successfully built one and that fell into the domain where mirror voyager went gallivanting across the Delta Quadrant assimilating Borg and Kazon into a fighting force.
The doctor basically convinces the Kyrians what is true in that timeline is false showing them what he remembers from his own timeline.
A personal LOTR head canon-Tolkien apparently or at least according to his son abandoned Dagor Dagorath-to me it's still canon-it's satisfying that Turin would slay Morgoth and everyone comes back for the last battle with at the end Feanor repenting and the world being remade.
Miscellanous YoH remarks: Interesting that it was a reset from the start, because there was an earlier Kes episode in which she experienced some of YoH, only with herself there and not Seven.
-------
Janeway choosing to go into the burning room was quite something.... I thought that since a time ship was involved, that gave away from the outset that a reset would happen. That was a sort of pattern with the show, "surprises" that weren't. However, if they were really thinking of not resetting, while that would have been a surprise, you get so weary from expecting the easy solution sometimes that you can't appreciate a switcheroo when it happens.
-------
There was something very satisfying about the end as filmed, though. Not Janeway's painful Schwartzenegger line "Time's up!!", which should never have happened, but the fact that 70s Show Dad was shown happy at home in the new rewritten timeline, showing something that happens in life all the time. So much bitterness and misery can be avoided just by letting go of one's tightly controlled, deadly-grim, anal retentive need to control everything. People's internal misery can cause suffering for others on an epic scale, even when well-intentioned.

They (Tom and Harry?) attempted to construct a backup previously and failed in their first attempt. My head cannon is that they didn't simply give up, and after series of failures eventual succeeded in creating a backup module..
To me head cannon is anything put on film and broadcast as either a movie or tv show. This excludes fan based shows, so Axinar will not be cannon. Besides that 2nd source is official books that have been printed. But that's it.
Canon, people. Canon. One "n." It's right there in the thread title.
Personal head canon-the romulans and Klingons join the UFP around the year 2700 or so as the Federation technologically gets farther and farther ahead-the Klingons were for all intents and purposes a client state for a century and a half prior.
The romulans have run out of options-I forget where I heard this but it really describes the Romulans well-they sneak around and play their games because their afraid of open war and don't want to talk with the Feds because believe it or not the Federation's message might just appeal to their citizenry if not the Senate-love joy and root beer! Sense they can't play their games of espionage dealing with a much stronger UFP and with any and all allies falling out of their orbit-Breen, Tholians and so on going to the UFP and the carpet being pulled they are compelled to become more friendly and join around 2700.
The Tholians are the last Alpha Quadrant power to join the UFP-their non-humanoid biology, strange way of doing things and society being the biggest stumbling block when they join all other powers have joined. Lots of celebration and happiness-totally United Alpha and Beta Quadrants.
The Feds make lasting peace with the Voth, Devore, Turei, and so on by 2950. With rapid expansion in the DQ and the dominion becoming more conciliatory under Odo's leadership the federation eventually encompasses the entire galaxy by Daniel's time.
The temporal Cold War is lasts a long stretch of the timeline and continues in a non-linear fashion into the future. But with time mastered and the populace fully unified the Feds begin expanding-reaching out to Andromeda-they help the powers there-including the Kelvans deal with increased Radiation.
From there they expand eventually overtaking millions of galactic superclusters and finding a way to delay if not stop the expansion of the universe. Also they deal with other universes-exchanging ideas and technology with travel and integration between trillions of timelines becoming routine by around 1,00,000,000 AD.
From there expansion and growth continues to they stop entropy in the multiverse-having explored other realms, dimensions, and so on-from the domain of the prophets, to fluidic space they eventually reach a dead end-finally corporeal forms are themselves transcended and the incorporeal human race(and all others) enters what in our puny minds could only comprehend as a door or gateway-once they step in and discover Q waiting with trumpets, bands and tons of excitement. At last humanity as met the Q and they are equals. This occurs around 10,000,000,000,000 AD.
From there well we can't even comprehend.
And so ended the apotheosis of the human race. The end aspiration of Trek.
What do y'all think of that?
