This week on Hit or Miss Star Trek, Captain Michael Wilson is joined by returning First Officer DK and returning guest Mary to revisit one of Star Trek: Voyager's most gloriously entertaining adventures: Bride of Chaotica! Together we celebrate an episode that transforms the holodeck into a black-and-white movie serial inspired by the likes of Flash Gordon and Buck Rogers, complete with melodramatic villains, fearless heroes, crackling death rays and scenery-chewing performances. Along the way we discuss Kate Mulgrew's unforgettable turn as Queen Arachnia, Voyager's wonderfully theatrical embrace of classic sci-fi, the episode's remarkable production story, and why this affectionate parody has become one of the franchise's most beloved holodeck adventures. As always, there's Behind the Scenes trivia, Poetry Corner (including limericks from both DK and Mary!), favourite moments and quotes, our regular Hit or Miss section, and plenty of laughter as we decide whether this monochrome adventure deserves its legendary reputation. So fire up the rocket ship, beware the Death Ray, and don't let the photonic invaders mistake you for one of Chaotica's henchmen as you join us for one of Star Trek's most joyful celebrations of classic science fiction.
