ahhhhhh AHHHHHHHH THAT CLIFFHANGER WAS TOO MUCH! But I love the potential it has given this show, so I am thrilled to be wildly wrong about everything because\u00c2\u00a0Voyager<\/em> just got so good, y’all. LET’S DO THIS.<\/p>\n

First things first, of course. Let’s address season three’s… ahem… predictions? Very bad guesses?<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. The\u00c2\u00a0Voyager<\/em>\u00c2\u00a0crew will get off the planet they\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve been stranded on by the end of the first episode.\u00c2\u00a0Okay, a very good (but easy) prediction.<\/strong><\/li>\n
  2. Suder, Tom Paris, and the Doctor will orchestrate the means to do so.\u00c2\u00a0Another great one!<\/strong><\/li>\n
  3. At least one person will die on the surface of the planet.\u00c2\u00a0Hahaha. ACCURATE. Right? Technically???<\/strong><\/li>\n
  4. Chakotay will only see his son once this season outside of the premiere.\u00c2\u00a0OH. SO ABOUT THAT, MARK. Jesus, I tried, and I wasn’t even fucking close.<\/strong><\/li>\n
  5. At least once this season, the crew will find a shortcut home that will reduce how long they need to travel.\u00c2\u00a0I’m bringing this back to the next season.<\/strong><\/li>\n
  6. At one point, they\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll be able to send a communication home.\u00c2\u00a0I’m saving this until later, good lord. I don’t think that will happen for a while.\u00c2\u00a0<\/strong><\/li>\n
  7. Most of this season\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s serialized plot will concern the Kazon.\u00c2\u00a0You know, this only feels silly in hindsight. It was a good idea at first!<\/strong><\/li>\n
  8. We\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll see three new species in the Delta Quadrant.\u00c2\u00a0CAN WE BAN SPECIES 8472. PLEASE.<\/strong><\/li>\n
  9. We\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll get an episode set entirely in a holodeck.\u00c2\u00a0Okay, not ENTIRELY in the holodeck, but “Worst Case Scenario” is about the closest thing to this, and I am pathetic, so I’m counting this.<\/strong><\/li>\n
  10. There will be at least one flashback episode.\u00c2\u00a0There was an attempt.\u00c2\u00a0<\/strong><\/li>\n
  11. Another Q episode!\u00c2\u00a0The Q and the Grey!!!<\/strong><\/li>\n
  12. Season 3 ends in a cliffhanger, too.\u00c2\u00a0Just stop me now. STOP ME.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    And with that, let me attempt to predict season 4:<\/p>\n

    Voyager Season 4 Predictions<\/strong><\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Janeway will make a successful deal with the Borg.<\/li>\n
    2. But it will not get them entirely through Borg space.<\/li>\n
    3. Working with the Borg, the Voyager crew will find a way to use the nanobots against Species 8472.<\/li>\n
    4. But they will not destroy the species or stop them. They’ll reappear again in this season.<\/li>\n
    5. Harry will be cured, and I say this mostly because I will be FURIOUS if they kill him off.<\/li>\n
    6. Tom and B’Elanna will start dating.<\/li>\n
    7. This season will feature the ramifications of Chakotay disagreeing with Janeway, even if it’s only one episode.<\/li>\n
    8. Tuvok will mind meld with someone else.<\/li>\n
    9. Neelix will try to date at least once this season.<\/li>\n
    10. Kes will talk about leaving Neelix at least once this season.<\/li>\n
    11. MORE OF JANEWAY TALKING TO DA VINCI.<\/li>\n
    12. I also think there will be an update on all the holonovels that people were writing due to “Worst Case Scenario.”<\/li>\n
    13. At some point, the\u00c2\u00a0Voyager<\/em> will have its journey home shortened.<\/li>\n
    14. Voyager will get out of Borg space by the end of the season.<\/li>\n
    15. Only to meet a new antagonist in the season 4 finale!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      ONWARDS!<\/p>\n
