Star Trek: Voyager Did A Better Job Than Prodigy Of Showing The Doctor’s Skills
Voyager showed a more complete picture of the Doctor
In general , and peculiarly in " Renaissance Man,“Star Trek : Voyagerdid a better business of express just how capable the Doctor was as a character . " Renaissance Man " was in many way the completion of the doc ’s entire character spark onVoyagergiven that it was one of the last episodes in the series . The sequence pushed the Doctor ’s ability to the limit and show up that he could get out off a lot of impressive genial and even physical feats . It was a reliable heist episode , and the Doctor was show to be a capable mystic agent .
Despite his ultimate triumph in " Renaissance Man , " the instalment terminate with the Doctor almost being decompiled after the sheer amount of information needed to take out off the plan that he had upload into his program threatened to overcharge his holomatrix .
In dividing line , besides his one second of deception , the Doctor mostly acted asProdigyseason 2 ’s comic moderation . He did n’t have a lot to do besides now and again advise the former Protostar crew and joking about his various holonovels . WhileStar Trek : Prodigyseason 2 read the evolution of otherVoyagercharacters like Janeway and Chakotay , the Doctor did n’t get much of an update . This was a routine disappointing given how pop the Doctor continues to be as a characterand how much electric potential he had from the end ofVoyagerthat could have been showcased .
