I can make anything into a Beatles reference.

I find Voyager more extreme in the swings.
Eleanor Rigby
Elenore, gee I think you're swell

I took it to be a reference to exactly what you mention. (Plus, Boimler accidentally "blackfaces" as a Kazon... with disastrous results.)
They just didn't hit us over the head with it, as a direct "green face" ref would have done. I'm glad they can be subtle and don't take their audience for idiots. I hate it when a show spells everything out.

This is my first ten of the season. I love character stories more than anything else, and this one is chock full of them, and I laughed my ASS off repeatedly. See? Look there, no ass.
You all know (maybe) that Tendi is my favorite and Mariner right behind her. We got "girls trip!" this episode, and between the laughing at the increasingly bizarre situations the two found themselves in trying to get that sex toy repaired, I also noticed all the great shout-outs (Quarks, Vic Fontaine's, being on Qualor II where anything can be a smoothie).
I like how we get more of Tendi's backstory. We don't know much about her. Hell, even though she's green I forget she's Orion because she's so calm and sweet compared to many of her Orion contemporaries. Also, we find out Mariner's pansexual (represent!), which is just one more reason to like her.
Shax's is back, and Rutherford finding out the secret to how bridge officers are brought back to life is hilarious, and scratches a Star Trek question we only get to see on the other side of the viewscreen.
Boimler having difficulties getting back into the swing of the Cerritos, and yeah, him having the entire Voyager series collector plates is quinessential Boimler. What a nerd.
T'ana shows, once again, she is a cat. That was fucking hilarious.
I love that, once again, Mariner ends up in the brig (Mariner's HQ lovingly scratched into the wall), and her and Tendi have forged a new friendship listening to Klingon acid punk.
Really, really fun episode, and it may seem silly to give it a 10, but I truly enjoyed it. This one was just fun from start to finish.

Are the actors proprietors of their own voices? I mean they always use the actor to voice his own character while a good impersonator could easily do the trick and you couldn't tell the difference.
I mean would it be a huge difference if the end credits said "Tom Paris voiced by John Doe or whatever"?

This is the show that celebrates ( some might say wallows in) Trek history. So of course they're gonna go for the original actor.
If they are available why not? I'm generally neutral to annoyed by fan service but this show is indulgent that way.
When it comes to the Beatles.... don't pass me by.
I will.
Me and my monkey have nothing to hide...but why don't we do this in the road?
Half of what we say is meaningless.
12 Bar Original.
Wait, what?
