To The Journey 96: Measure of a Hologram

Author, Author and The Measure of a Man Comparison. With hundreds of hours of Trek under the writers' belts by the time Voyager arrived, it was no wonder that some stories brought about a feeling of deja vu. "Recycled plots" aren't necessarily a bad thing when they're given a new spin, and that's exactly what the writers did with Voyager's "Author, Author"—they took the insightful and compelling message from TNG's "The Measure of a Man" and gave it a holographic twist. In this episode of To The Journey, Char and Tristan examine these two episodes' similarities, differences, and determine if one surpasses the other.   Hosts Tristan Riddell and Charlynn Schmiedt   Editor and Producer Tristan Riddell   Associate Producers Become one!
