I'm working on a full-show marathon (slowly) and i'm about halfway through Season 4. I LOVED this episode...the two EMHs had me chuckling most of the time. What do you folks think?
 
I think that Doctor Zimmerman is going to be lucky if no one from Voyager murders him for putting so much DRM into the EMH that they couldn't send a copy to the Alpha Quadrant and keep another copy running in sickbay.
 
I'm not quite there yet on my current watch-through, but I recall enjoying it. Part of me wished the first visit to the alpha quadrant wasn't a comedy, and the trek-tech nerd in me hated the teeny tiny warp engine that popped out the saucer section of the Prometheus when it seperated, but those things are unimportant. It was a fun episode. I remember when I first saw it being convinced the Doc would save the day, but somehow still fail to alert Starfleet to Voyager's plight. When he did I was somewhat relieved:lol:.

I also couldn't grasp how only six people in Starfleet were trained to crew a ship that seemed to be at least as large as Voyager. I guess they were having a serious manpower crisis during the Dominion war:p.

A few days ago I watched a bit of Enterprise's "Azati Prime", a recognized the Prometheus as one of the future-Federation ships seen during a battle in the 26th century, which was cool (along with the Dauntless...I don't think we were supposed to freeze-frame:lol:)
 
The Prometheus class U.S.S. Prometheus was an extremely interesting new starfleet design the way it would separate for battle.:techman:

One of my favorites and one of the few if only times I found Andy Dick funny and not over the top or offensive.
 
I love this episode! Andy Dick is great, the story is fun and there are lots of terrific moments in it. One of my favorite Voy eps!

Agree, two E.M.H. working together to take back the Prometheus federation starship from the Romulans was brilliant.

Was it said there were only six crew members? I thought there might have been more stashed elsewhere.
