There have been a lot of poor episodes of Star Trek: Voyager, but one in particular stands apart as one of the worst Trek episodes ever! Which one is it and why is it so bad?

Star Trek: Voyager has a tricky place in Trek canon. Many loved the tale of a Starfleet and Maquis crew thrust halfway across the universe and trying to get back to Earth. It gave us great characters: Janeway, Chakotay, Tom Paris, Torres, Seven of Nine, and the holographic Doctor. At its best, Voyager could have some great stuff for Trek fans.

Of course, there were low points for the series. Some story arcs didn’t click, characters got short shrift, and there were several bad episodes. However, one episode in particular has to stand out as one of the most amazingly awful tales ever created for any Star Trek series.

“Threshold.”

How bad is this episode?...

The script for Severance season 2's finale, "Cold Harbor," has been revealed, confirming the exact reason why Mark's Innie decided to abandon Gemma towards the end. Severance's season 2 finale was jam-packed with unpredictable twists, bizarre action sequences, and intriguing story setups for season 3. However, one of the biggest highlights of the episode appeared in its final moments when Mark's Innie made the bold decision of staying back with Helly and abandoning his Outie's wife, Gemma.

Mark Innie's climactic decision in Severance season 2's cliffhanger ending left many viewers divided and made them wonder why he would do this to his Outie and Gemma. Many have even called the Innie selfish for not following Gemma beyond the Severance Threshold despite watching her cry and begging him to stay with her. Fortunately, the "Cold Harbor" episode's script has now been released (via Deadline), which explicitly highlights why the Innie showed no...

There’s a razor-thin line between Star Trek and A Nightmare on Elm Street. Numerous actors and other talent have crossed from one franchise into another, including a married couple, though more on them in a few moments. There’s Leslie Hoffman, who played the hall guard in the original Elm Street fright fest and worked on both Deep Space Nine and Voyager as an actor, stunt performer, and/or stunt coordinator. Mimi Craven, who portrayed Jisa in the Voyager episode “Dragon’s Teeth,” appeared as a nurse in Elm Street 1. David Andrews, who made his big-screen debut in Elm Street 1, later guest-starred as Lorian, the son of T’Pol and Trip Tucker in an episode of Enterprise.

And the list goes on and on. Makeup impresario Mark Shostrom worked on Elm Street 2 and 3, and later won an Emmy Award for the Voyager episode “Threshold,” sharing it with Michael Westmore and several fellow collaborators.

It’s downright terrifying to think that Star Trek: Voyager is celebrating its 30th anniversary, which we believe makes it the perfect moment to look back at the show’s scariest episode. Though some fans might cite “Threshold,” in which Tom Paris and Captain Janeway evolved -- or, rather, devolved -- into creatures that resembled a cross between slugs, salamanders, and lizards, that was scary mostly because it was such a freaky image in an atrocious episode. If we’re talking about good, old-fashioned scary, then “The Thaw” earns that honor.

The episode debuted on April 29, 1996, during Voyager’s second season, and was directed by Marvin Rush, who served as a director of photography on The Next Generation, Deep Space Nine, Voyager, and Enterprise. Upn’s publicity department provided the media with an extensive advisory/synopsis that read, in part, “Voyager activates an automated message from members of the Kohl settlement who,...

Dating is brutal, right? In Shudder's upcoming The Dead Thing, it's also terrifying. The streaming platform has now released a trailer for the upcoming horror outing. The indie feature debuted at the Fantasia Film Festival last year before making its way to London's FrightFest and the Brooklyn Horror Film Festival. While there will be plenty of Valentine's Day movie offerings across streamers, The Dead Thing promises a scary date night when it lands on Shudder on February 14.

Directed by Elric Kane (best known for hosting the podcasts Pure Cinema and Colors of the Dark), the indie thriller follows a young woman named Alex (Blu Hunt), who is disillusioned with dating until she meets a charming man named Kyle (Ben Smith-Petersen). A passionate night ensues, but things get eerie quickly after Kyle vanishes. The Dead Thing's official synopsis teases that once Alex reconnects with Kyle, she "digs up a ghastly supernatural secret.

Today's a Wednesday, and we've got some big Wheel of Time news for you to start your day. Yes, if you're one of those perpetually online Wheel of Time fans, the hallowed "#WoTWednesdays," when Prime Video drops exciting updates or behind-the-scenes looks at the series, are back! The Wheel of Time season 3 premieres on March 13, which is just around the corner. Prime Video clearly want us to know it is time to start getting hyped.

To wit, today the studio announced five new cast members who are joining The Wheel of Time for its third season, along with the characters they're playing. This is the third major casting announcement so far for season 3, following Shohreh Aghdashloo as the Aes Sedai Elaida and the royal family of Andor.

Season 3 will largely be adapting Robert Jordan's novel The Shadow Rising, which vastly expands the cast of The Wheel of Time story...

Julien Eveillé, a solitary developer, created Threshold, a chillingly unreal experience for players. In this psychological horror game, your primary duty is to ensure a mystery train maintains its speed. The retro-inspired, PS1-era images create an unnerving atmosphere that matches themes of isolation and control.

Threshold’s central theme is reflection on the nature of work and existential problems. Players must navigate a high-stakes environment where survival depends on repetitive tasks like blowing a whistle to keep the train running and collecting oxygen canisters.

From the start, the atmosphere surrounds you. The austere, minimalistic environment sets the tone for an ambiguous narrative. Interactions with Mo, your only coworker, foster a sense of reliance and scepticism. Mo’s notes heighten the sense of isolation, underlining the vulnerability of your situation.

Threshold’s mechanics are inextricably linked to its narrative. Each task is significant, and maintaining speed serves as a metaphor for current work constraints.

Critical Reflex are at it once again after releasing Buckshot Roulette and Mouthwashing earlier this year. They’ve teamed with developer Julien Eveillé to release his dread-inducing totalitarian horror game Threshold, which is out now on Steam for $9.99 Usd, with an additional 10% off discount for launch until November 26.

As Thomas put it when he checked out Threshold at Pax West earlier this year, the game is about “shutting up, doing your job, and maybe staying alive.” You are stationed high in the mountains at the Border Post. Your job is simple: blow a whistle to keep the train on schedule. Seeing as your elevation is quite high, you’ll need to complete your tasks while rationing your oxygen. That means every step and every whistle blow needs to be measured. Don’t worry, good work is rewarded with air canisters.

You won’t just be blowing a whistle, mind you.

This article contains spoilers for From Season 3, streaming now on MGM+.

From is about to close its highly-anticipated third season, and it looks like the series is finally getting to answering its long-standing mysteries. After almost two-and-a-half seasons of fans digging up all sorts of details to force things to make sense, Season 3, Episode 8, Threshold, has somewhat confirmed a popular fan theory that has been looming since the beginning.

Not only that, but after a near-death attempt at rescuing a doll, Victor has remembered key details that might lead him and party to the path of getting out of the Town. With Boyd busy dealing with the Fatima situation, the rest of the residents are surprisingly finding their place on the chess board as the show slowly reveals the intricate connection between the Town and its unfortunate dwellers.

Fans Have Long Predicted That Time Travel Had a Role to Play...

Donald Sutherland had a successful acting career spanning over six decades, establishing himself as one of his era's most adaptable and trustworthy actors. His roles have covered various genres, from psychological thrillers to historical dramas, demonstrating a deep understanding of intricate characters. Donald Sutherland's best movies have consistently been in challenging roles portraying morally ambiguous or flawed personalities. His strong presence on screen made him a beloved figure in both Hollywood and independent cinema. Quietly stepping away from the limelight with grace, Sutherland has left behind a lasting legacy that continues to inspire even after his untimely passing in 2024.

While Sutherland is commonly known for his outstanding performances in major films like Klute and The Hunger Games franchise, many of his finest performances can be found in lesser-known, underappreciated films. These movies showcase his range and demonstrate why he was such a revered and respected actor even when he first...

Jeff Goldblum, 25, has forgotten his mantra. At least, his nameless party guest character – dubbed “Man on the Phone” in the screenplay – has. And it’s the way he delivered that line in 1977’s Annie Hall that made him stand out despite only having a few seconds of screen time. Somehow – just by being himself – Jeff Goldblum turned a throwaway bit into one of the funniest lines in one of the funniest films.

As for Jeff Goldblum himself, he says his mantras are “I am grateful” and “Accept, enjoy, enthuse.” And that, across 50 years on the big screen, is as truthful as it gets when it comes to Jeff Goldblum.

Let’s find out: What Happened to…Jeff Goldblum?

Jeff Goldblum was born on October 22nd, 1952 just outside of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, the son of a doctor and a radio broadcaster, the sort of brains and art pairing that perfectly describes the...

Star Trek: Voyager went where no other series had gone before or has gone since when it debuted "Threshold" during its second season. Although I didn't despise it as much as many fans, there were plenty who couldn't get past Tom Paris [Robert Duncan McNeill] and Captain Janeway [Kate Mulgrew] morphing into large lizards. Paris then kidnapped Janeway, took her to another planet, where they created some lizard babies which got left behind on the planet after Paris and Janeway were rescued by Voyager. While I personally think the episode had its good parts, I can understand why it would rank low in the ratings.

Hold onto your hats, though, because according to the Internet Movie Database [IMDb], Threshold is actually two points higher than the worse ranked episode which is "The Fight." Chakotay [Robert Beltran] begins hallucinating about boxing, seeing pairs of boxing gloves randomly. This is all because...

When the firefighter Bailey Nune (Jenna Dewan) made her initial debut in the Season 3 finale of the ABC series, The Rookie, "Threshold," she exuded a suspicious vibe. At first, the potential new love interest for John Nolan (Nathan Fillion), seemed too good to be true. Bailey shows up at Nolan's doorstep, wearing nothing but a towel, after locking herself out of a neighbor's home, where she was house-sitting. Early on, the series arguably took a superficial approach to Bailey's development. Her earlier appearances quickly established a relationship with Nolan, depicting her as an extreme, heroic badass who can keep up with Nolan's equally extreme lifestyle as an officer for the Los Angeles Police Department. The problem is that Bailey's initial appearances lacked an organic, natural quality, and her character development felt rushed. However, the last two seasons took a much better approach in writing Bailey, who has since become one of the show's strongest characters.

Donald Sutherland shined in Canadian cinema during the '70s and '80s. Nothing Personal showcases a mismatched pairing with Suzanne Somers in a film that fails to captivate audiences. Sutherland's talent shines despite the lackluster material, proving that even great actors can't save bad films.

After gaining Hollywood stardom with his acclaimed performance as combat surgeon Hawkeye Pierce in the 1970 black comedy war film M*A*S*H, Donald Sutherland continued to do his part for his native Canadian film industry, which he virtually carried throughout the 1970s and much of the 1980s, as the most prominent Canadian-born actor to achieve Hollywood leading-man status during this period. Sutherland was often loyal to Canadian cinema to a fault. The best of Sutherlands Canadian films is the 1981 medical drama Threshold, in which the actor gives a compelling performance as a brilliant heart surgeon performing the first artificial heart transplant on a human patient in history.

Donald Sutherland excels as a compassionate heart surgeon in the intense medical thriller Threshold. Threshold blurs the line between fiction and reality, forcing viewers to ponder life and death. Sutherland's transformative acting in Threshold showcases his exceptional range as an underrated actor.

Donald Sutherland played several doctors throughout his career, beginning with Sutherlands star-making performance as audacious combat surgeon Benjamin Franklin Hawkeye Pierce in the 1970 black comedy war film M*A*S*H. Following M*A*S*H, he played a paleontologist in the 1984 mystery film Ordeal by Innocence, a dedicated psychologist in the 1989 film Lost Angels, and Canadian physician Norman Bethune in the 1990 biographical drama film Bethune: The Making of a Hero.

One of his most effective performances can be found in the 1981 film Threshold, in which he plays Dr. Thomas Vrain, a brilliant heart surgeon who embarks on a risky operation to implant the first artificial heart in a human patient.

Star Trek has a mixed record when it comes to introducing new alien races. Sure, even non-hardcore Trek fans can list off facts about Vulcans, Klingons, and the Borg, but there are many, many more aliens that fall into obscurity. Mostly because they’re one-off guest aliens used to set up the ethical dilemma of the week. But every so often, the makers of Star Trek bet Big when it on a new alien species, confident they’ll become a major recurring element of the Trek franchise. And then they faceplant in spectacular fashion.

The most well known disaster was the Ferengi, the money-obsessed culture that was introduced as major recurring (and “imposing”) new threat for Star Trek: The Next Generation. But what was supposed to be a critique of capitalism just came off as silly at best and actively offensive at worst. Yet even with that horrid intro, the...

Spoiler Alert!Spoilers for The Boys Season 4

Anyone who has binged The Boys Season 4 on Prime Video would be yearning to unsee Rob Benedict’s Nsfw scene in one of the episodes.

A 1975 documentary on the Blue Angels inspired groundbreaking filming techniques in the 1986 classic Top Gun. The Blue Angels have played a significant role in the production of Top Gun: Maverick, with a former pilot performing risky stunts. Without the elite standards of the Blue Angels and the inspiration from Threshold, Top Gun may not have soared to success.

The new 2024 documentary The Blue Angels offers an updated look into the esteemed group of pilots who provided real-world inspiration for the Top Gun franchise. Upon its 1986 release, the original Top Gun was a critical and commercial success, reining in $357 million worldwide and cementing itself as an instant classic for Tom Cruise and the action genre at large. A 1975 documentary about the Blue Angels inspired many of the filming techniques put on display in the 1986 blockbuster.

Top Gun was impressively made for just $15 million, while its 2022 sequel Top Gun: Maverick had a budget of $170 million.

Say goodbye to traditional warp drives - the new Kardashev Drive in Star Trek #20 puts them all to shame. The Kardashev Drive surpasses all other warp drives, making speed irrelevant in reaching the Pleroma. Idw introduces a groundbreaking model of warp drive that breaks the galactic Barrier in Star Trek #20.

Warning: contains spoilers for Star Trek #20!

There are different varieties of warp drive in the Star Trek universe, stretched across many erasand now a new one has been introduced that makes them all look pathetic.

Star Trek embraces peace but also explores monster movie elements for some thrilling episodes. Shows like Voyager & Next Generation weave classic monster movie themes with sci-fi twists. Even as monsters take center stage, empathy remains a core theme in the Star Trek universe.

Star Trek has a message of peace and tolerance and seeing beyond the surface, but it's not above doing an all-out monster movie from time to time. From its inception in 1966, Star Trek has taught audiences not to judge alien species by appearances. For example, Star Trek: Voyager villains Species 8472 were terrifying, Alien-inspired creatures, who turned out to be benevolent aliens that had been driven to violence by the actions of the Borg Collective. Earlier episodes like Star Trek: The Original Series' "Devil in the Dark" revealed hidden emotional depths to a creature that was ostensibly a disgusting rock monster.

Despite Star Trek's message of empathy,...

Robert Duncan McNeill found a compelling moral in Star Trek: Voyager's controversial episode "Threshold" - self-worth comes from within. Tom Paris' emotional journey in "Threshold" is the episode's greatest strength, but is often overlooked in favor of its more shocking moments. Despite its bizarre premise, "Threshold" offers insight into Tom's psyche and his relationship with his father.

Although Star Trek: Voyager's season 2 episode "Threshold" was highly unpopular, Tom Paris actor Robert Duncan McNeill explained the episode's surprisingly compelling moral. Lt. Tom Paris was the USS Voyager's pilot, navigator, and sometimes medic for all seven seasons of the show, and a member of Voyager's main cast of characters. Tom began the series as a bitter, jaded convicted felon who acted as though he didn't care about anything. However, during Voyager's journey through the Delta Quadrant, Tom found his convictions, worked through many of his issues, and became a model Starfleet officer in the process.

Star Trek: Voyager's Brannon Braga regretted removing the evolution concept from "Threshold," believing it robbed the episode of its point. "Threshold" fell apart due to its strange final arc focusing on Paris and Janeway's salamander transformation. Despite being one of Star Trek's most controversial episodes, "Threshold" has gained a cult following over the years.

Star Trek: Voyager writer Brannon Braga called the episode "Threshold" a disaster for a very specific reason. "Threshold" was episode 15 of Voyager season 2, and is to date one of the most controversial episodes in the Star Trek timeline. The episode revolved around Tom Paris (Robert Duncan McNeill) on a mission to break the Warp 10 speed barrier, something that had been established in Star Trek: The Next Generation. However, when Paris succeeded in surpassing Warp 10, he began mutating into a salamander-like creature that kidnapped Captain Janeway (Kate Mulgrew) and mated with her on an alien planet.

Here lies Thomas Eugene Paris, beloved mutant. That’s what Trekkies think about every Jan. 29, known among some as “Threshold Day,” commemorating the 1996 airing of the Star Trek: Voyager season two episode “Threshold.” Threshold Day consists mostly of memes and jokes, poking fun at what most consider one of the series’ worst episodes, if not one of the most embarrassing Star Trek episodes of all time.

While it is certainly corny, “Threshold” doesn’t quite deserve its ignoble reputation. Not only is it far from the worst episode of Voyager (Chakotay’s ancestors’ bones play no part in the story), but it contains a lot of qualities found in the best Star Trek episodes. Is that enough to elevate “Threshold” to the upper Trek tiers? No, but it is enough to give the episode a better reputation than the one it has now.

Crossing the Threshold

Directed by TV veteran Alexander Singer,...

In the "Star Trek: Voyager" episode "Threshold", the U.S.S. Voyager discovers a rare, extra-powerful version of dilithium, the crystal that is required to run starship engines. Using this new dilithium, the Voyager crew figure they can build an engine capable of passing the mythic warp-10 barrier, essentially allowing them to reach infinite velocity, passing through every point in the universe simultaneously. Such a breakthrough would allow the Voyager to return to Earth in a moment. 

When testing their new engine, however, something goes awry. Tom Paris (Robert Duncan McNeill) returns from a test flight ... altered. He begins to mutate and change, losing skin and spitting out his tongue. It seems that the infinite velocity flight somehow triggered his body's evolutionary genes and he is rapidly transforming into whatever creatures humans will evolve into in the next hundred million years. When Paris becomes an amphibian-like frog man, he kidnaps...

U.K. sales and distribution outfit Blue Finch Films has boarded worldwide rights, excluding Australia and New Zealand, to thriller “Birdeater.”

The debut feature from filmmaking duo Jack Clark and Jim Weir follows a bride-to-be who is invited to join her own fiancé’s bachelor party on a remote property in the Australian outback. But as the festivities spiral into beer-soaked chaos, uncomfortable details about their relationship are exposed, and the celebration soon becomes a feral nightmare.

Blue Finch describes the film as “an unapologetic look at how Australia’s iconic masculine identity has become incompatible with contemporary gender politics.” The film stars Shabana Azeez (“Run Rabbit Run”) and Mackenzie Fearnley (“Operation Buffalo”) as the soon-to-be-wedded couple. Written by Clark, the film is produced by Stephanie Troost and Ulysses Oliver of Breathless Films. The Australian and New Zealand rights are with Umbrella Entertainment.

"Threshold" may be maligned for its wacky salamander twist, but it's actually a good Star Trek: Voyager episode before that. It explores themes of legacy and existence within the infinite. The concept of turning into salamanders creates plot holes, but it's a small price to pay for utilizing warp 10 technology to get back home. Despite its flaws, "Threshold" is beloved by some fans for its bizarre nature, and it has left a lasting legacy as "the one with the salamanders."

One of Star Trek's most maligned episodes is Star Trek: Voyager season 2, episode 15, "Threshold", but it's actually better than its reputation would suggest. "Threshold"'s claim to fame is its memorable ending, in which Lt. Tom Paris (Robert Duncan McNeill) kidnaps Captain Kathryn Janeway (Kate Mulgrew) and takes her on a Warp 10 journey similar to his own. Lt. Tuvok (Tim Russ) and Ensign Harry Kim (Garret Wang) trace Paris'...

Robert Duncan McNeill's three Star Trek characters meet in a hilarious meme, prompting whether they all look alike. The meme highlights the fact that Lt. Tom Paris was once turned into a salamander in a Star Trek: Voyager episode. Fans can stream Star Trek: Voyager and Star Trek: Lower Decks on Paramount+.

Robert Duncan McNeill is best known as Star Trek: Voyager's Lieutenant Tom Paris, but when his 3 Star Trek characters finally meet in a hilarious meme, it begs the question: Do they all look alike? McNeill reprised Tom Paris in the Star Trek: Lower Decks season 2 episode, "We'll Always Have Tom Paris," but Robert returned as his previous character from Star Trek: The Next Generation, disgraced ex-Starfleet Cadet Nicholas Locarno. Lieutenant Beckett Mariner (Tawny Newsome) and the USS Cerritos stopped Locarno from threatening the galaxy in Star Trek: Lower Decks season 4's finale.

Cinematographer Powell Robinson discusses the different iterations of Appendage, including technical challenges and the movie's underlying color story, in an exclusive interview with Screen Rant.

Exclusive: Blue Fox Entertainment announced it has acquired worldwide rights and will be launching sales on the sci-fi thriller Site at the upcoming American Film Market in November. The gripping and thought-provoking film is written and directed by the award-winning Jason Eric Perlman, who was recently named #4 in LA Weekly’s “Top 10 Entertainment Professionals to Watch in 2023.” His debut feature Threshold was released by Sony Pictures after a decorated festival run in 2017.

Blue Fox Entertainment is handling worldwide sales and will preview first look footage of the film for buyers at the upcoming American Film Market (AFM). Blue Fox Entertainment’s US distribution division is planning a theatrical release for the film.

The film stars Jake McLaughlin, Arielle Kebbel, Theo Rossi, and Miki Ishikawa, and Yoson An.

In Site, Neil (Jake McLaughlin) experiences an inexplicable time distortion in an abandoned military test site while inspecting it with his business partner Garrison (Theo Rossi). Soon, Neil is having repeated traumatic flashes back to a WWII prison camp in China called Unit 731, which somehow holds the thread to his own unraveling present. Neil begins to realize that the past lives and events in this place of unspeakable brutality seem to mirror his own trauma with his son Wiley and his wife Elena (Arielle Kebbel). Desperate for answers, Neil enlists Naomi (Miki Ishikawa) to help him find the facility’s last surviving scientist. Ultimately, Neil awakens to a new redemptive responsibility, both within his own family and the greater society around him.

Site is produced by publicist and entrepreneur Benjamin Cooke, Sundance alum, Kelly Hayes, international businesswoman, Yvonne Supangkat, and Jason Eric Perlman.

Blue Fox Entertainment’s James Huntsman said, “Audiences are hungry for high quality science fiction thrillers, which have been scarce in the market recently. With Site, Jason and his talented cast and crew have created an exciting journey that has something relevant to say beneath the surface of the film.”

Director Jason Eric Perlman said, “We are thrilled to have this film beginning its journey in the viewing world. In this time of such unthinkable conflicts I believe it’s vital that creativity explores the interconnectedness of mankind, as well as the atrocities we are capable of inflicting upon one another. Site is intent upon doing both, but with the philosophical imperative that if we ignore history, or the darkness within each of us, we are doomed to repeat the same traumas over and over.

It has been an honor to work with our incredibly talented cast in bringing this story to life, and their commitment to the material elevates it to a remarkable plane. Our visionary crew is also to be credited with what I believe we’ve achieved. The cinematography of Eunah Lee and the brilliant production design of Gabor Norman were integral in the telling of this story to full potential. We are excited to team now with Blue Fox in launching this film into the world.”...

It has been 25 years since Keri Russell graced the small screen in the iconic role of Felicity Porter.

Felicity, the J.J. Abrams and Matt Reeves-produced college drama, was a critical darling of The WB, becoming a phenomenon well before "the big chop" controversy and often topping the list of young adult classics to this very day.

The series amassed 84 episodes over four seasons, and it was nominated for 38 awards, including a Golden Globe Best Actress nod for Keri Russell.

The series remains impactful, even two and a half decades later. And it's primarily due to the allure of the cast, many of whom are still going strong in their careers all these years later.

So, where is the cast of Felicity now? Check it out!

In the first episode of the fourth season of "Star Trek: Lower Decks," called "Twovix," the crew of the U.S.S. Cerritos has been given a delicate mission. It seems that the U.S.S. Voyager, having returned from the Delta Quadrant only a few years prior, has now been converted into a flying museum commemorating that ship's many adventures. The Voyager must be accompanied to Earth, where it will be opened to the public, and the Cerritos has to oversee the transport. The old Intrepid-class starship contains mannequins wearing mission-worn uniforms and touts periodic diorama-bound exhibits explaining some of the Voyager's more outlandish shenanigans. "It's Voyager," one of the Cerritos crew members fliply points out, "S*** got crazy."

One of the stranger exhibits features a pair of outsize, orange animatronic salamanders that will be instantly recognizable to "Star Trek: Voyager" fans. In the episode "Threshold", the Voyager crew...

The cause of death for late NYPD Blue star Austin Majors has been confirmed six months after the 27-year-old’s unexpected passing. The Los Angeles County Medical Examiner’s Office has officially listed the cause of death for Majors as fentanyl toxicity and the manner of death has been listed as accidental. According to Deadline, Majors’ name is listed as Austin Setmajor, and his birth surname is Setmajer. Majors died on February 11 in a Los Angeles homeless facility known as Hilda Solis Care First Village where he resided and was believed to have died from fentanyl poisoning at the time before tests had been run.

As with most Star Trek shows, Star Trek: Voyager had certain seasons that were better than others in its seven season run. Voyager was the fourth television series in the Star Trek franchise and ran congruently with Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, premiering in January 1995 and ending in May 2001 for a total of 172 episodes. The show was notable for introducing many popular characters including Captain Kathryn Janeway (Kate Mulgrew) and Seven of Nine (Jeri Ryan), and maintains a devoted following among Star Trek fans today.

Star Trek: Voyager's overarching plot about the crew attempting to return home after being stranded in the Delta Quadrant created numerous opportunities for great storytelling. Voyager introduced new sci-fi challenges and alien races to a well-established franchise, while still taking the opportunity to explore already popular Star Trek aliens, concepts, and characters. Like any TV show, however, Voyager included a mix of episodes in terms of quality,...

Austin Majors, a former child actor known for his role in NYPD Blue, has died. He was 27.

According to the Los Angeles County Medical Examiner, Majors died Saturday in Los Angeles. His cause of death has not been released.

In a statement issued to TMZ, his family said he “was a loving, artistic, brilliant and kind human being. Austin took great joy and pride in his acting career. He was an active Eagle Scout and graduated Salutatorian in High School. He went on to graduate from USC’s School of Cinematic Arts with a passion of directing and music producing.”

The statement continued, “Austin’s younger sister, Kali, says her fondest memories with Austin were growing up on set with him, volunteering at events with “Kids With a Cause”, and backpacking together. Austin was the kind of son, brother, grandson, and nephew that made us proud and we will miss him deeply forever.

Austin Majors, a former child actor best known for his role in “NYPD Blue,” died Saturday in Los Angeles. Major’s death was confirmed by LA country Medical Examiner-Coroner. He was 27.

He had been living at a downtown Los Angeles facility for homeless individuals, and appeared in the Los Angeles Daily News last week when L.A. mayor Karen Bass toured the facility.

His sister Kali remembered him, writing on Facebook, “My big brother, Austin, is gone. He died last night. It’s so surreal to me still. He was only 27 with so much life left to live.”

Major’s family also issued a statement to TMZ, saying “[Austin] was a loving, artistic, brilliant, and kind human being. Austin took great joy and pride in his acting career. He was an active Eagle Scout and graduated Salutatorian in High School. He went on to graduate from USC’s School of...

Carla Gugino is the latest addition to the increasingly stacked cast of HBO Max’s The Girls on the Bus.

Hailing from executive producers/writers Amy Chozick and Julie Plec and inspired by a chapter in Chozick’s book Chasing Hillary: Ten Years, Two Presidential Campaigns and One Intact Glass Ceiling, The Girls on the Bus stars Supergirl alum Melissa Benoist as Sadie McCarthy, a journalist who romanticizes the original “Boys on the Bus” and thus scrapped her whole life for her own shot at covering a presidential campaign for the paper of record.

This Star Trek: Lower Decks article contains spoilers for Season 2, Episode 3.

The third episode of Lower Decks Season 2 has, in its title, an Easter egg to the Tng episode “We’ll Always Have Paris.” It is not anyone’s favorite episode of The Next Generation, but it’s possible that “We’ll Always Have Tom Paris,” will be your favorite episode of Lower Decks. Well, that depends on how much you love Star Trek: Voyager and not having complicated questions answered, ever.

Genesis devices to Delta Quadrant madness, different kinds of Orions, and several Worf shout-outs, here’s every Easter egg and reference we caught in Lower Decks Season 2, Episode 3.

Boimler can’t use the replicator

Mariner mentions that the upgraded security on the Cerritos means is responsible for Boimler being locked out of the replicators. This vaguely references the DS9 episode “Inquisition” and the Voyager episode “Counterpoint,” when it...

Threshold (Arrow) - Streaming Exclusively on Arrow May 3rd

When a phone call from out of the blue brings Leo (Joey Millin) back into contact with his sister, Virginia (Madison West), long estranged from her family due to years of drug abuse, he arrives to find her alone in a bare apartment...

Much is going to be made of the circumstances surrounding Threshold, the micro-budget supernatural road movie by co-directors Powell Robinson and Robert-Patrick Young, which arrives via always-immaculate horror specialists Arrow this week. Shot on two iPhones over two days, with a crew of three and dialogue mostly improvised by its two leads, there’s no doubt that it’s an impressive example of turning limitations into virtues. The against-the-odds achievement of getting a film made under those conditions, as impressive as that is,is really the least important thing here, though. iPhones are just handy-sized cameras, after-all, and the wide vistas of an American cross-country trip ensure the frame is almost always cinematic and often quite beautiful.

This isn’t a story about budget filmmaking, it’s a story about connections. We follow Leo (Joey Millin) as he drags the semi-trashed car he used as a teenager out of mothballs...
