- TriviaThis is the only episode in the history of Star Trek for which the hairstyling cost more than visual effects because most of the Janeway scenes had to be re-shot after the studio requested that Janeway have a different hairstyle.

In the final shot, when the shuttle is flying over the saucer section of Voyager, it has returned to 71325.

Featured review
A really good pilot episode
Voyager's pilot episode is just as great and gripping as The Next Generation's pilot Encounter at Farpoint, but the Caretaker earns an extra brownie point because it establishes each character's basic traits clearly to the viewers. When all the principal characters' crossed paths at the Ocampan underground tunnel, you really feel that the show is really off to a great start on creating an ensemble show (well until Seven of Nine comes in halfway in season four, then the show becomes a rather one-sided affair). Bon Voyage, it has been a great seven seasons and all of its characters will be sorely missed.
