Trivia / Star Trek: Voyager S4 E8: "Year of Hell"

• What Could Have Been:
  • Brannon Braga wanted an entire season dedicated to the "Year of Hell" story arc, but ultimately was overruled.
  • At one point, this was also meant to be the Season 3 finale (hence the foreshadowing in the episode "Before And After"), but it was pushed back in order for a story featuring the Borg, just off their appearance in Star Trek: First Contact, to feature, as well as introduce Seven of Nine.
• You Look Familiar: Kurtwood Smith doesn't care what you think of his time ship, dumbass! He's already had to deal with an assassination attempt and being replaced by a shapeshifter.
