Season 3 had a few clunkers (the guilty pleasure "Macrocosm" puts Janeway in stripped-down "Ripley" mode against invading macro-viruses, and Ensign Kim is an awkward "Favorite Son" to a bevy of babes), but for every misstep there's a strong science-fiction concept, like the highly-evolved Hadrosaurs in "Distant Origin," which doubles as a compelling indictment of institutionalized repression. Overall, this is rock-solid Trek, and the DVD features are equally engaging, albeit growing more perfunctory (especially the season 3 summary) with each full-season release. Don't forget the Easter eggs hidden on the special-features menus, however; they contain some of the set's happiest surprises. --Jeff Shannon

Customer Reviews of Star Trek Voyager - The Complete Third Season
Voyager's Third Year Puts The Ship at its prime! Season 3 was the year Voyager took its journey with a new attitude. The traitors were gone, the crew was united, the Kazon were old news and with Neelix's help dwindling, the ship was entering a true unknown. Some highlights were Basics Part II, Future's End, Before And After, Distant Origin, the return of the Borg in Unity, the emotional Real Life, and ending off with undoubtly the best episode of the series (and in my opinion, of Star Trek), Scorpion. Kes' last year was good for her as she travelled through time and fought alien take overs. Q makes a return in a Q civil war and a "proposal" for Janeway. Future's End is a great time travel episode putting humor around every corner. Each character has an episode to shine in, including the captain who faces the greatest enemy of all, death, in the episode Coda.
Season 3 is a great transition from the Kazon/Struggling arc to the Seven Of Nine/Borg/Knowing How To Survive Arcs of the later seasons. If anything, it is just too much fun to watch Torres and Ayala divert the caveman in Basics, Part II because they are great runners. This is a must buy for Voyager and Star Trek fans! I would buy this even if there were no special features.
VOYAGER FINDS ITS WINGS
In the STAR TREK Universe of series, the third season historically sets the pace for the most enduring stories of the run of the show. STAR TREK: VOYAGER Season Three doesn't disappoint. Featuring such landmark episodes that eventually lead up to their epic first confrontation with the TREK Universe's most sinister enemies: The Borg.
Season Three finally proves that Janeway's crew has the mettle to stand up to any of the other crews in Roddenbery's legacy, even more so since they face the perilous unknown of the Delta Quadrant. This is exactly what was always intended for STAR TREK...a ship out in space, searching the unknown and expanding on the human condition. It never hurt that along the way in Season Three the VOYAGER has some of the most exciting moments in sci-fi adventure ever on television!
Season Three sets the tone for the future of the TREK francise and for the eventual climatic introduction of one of the most intriguing characters ever to appear in any STAR TREK series...prepare for Season Four!
Good... yet... somewhat incomplete.
I jumped in on this series only recently, forming a new appreciation for the details that makes it unique-- i.e. the crew interaction and character development that sets it apart from The Next Generation and gives the series a flavor of its own. The overall fast-paced, high-speed inertia that viewers were thrust into early in on the series is continued in this season. Stories continued to be both intruiging and amazing.. however.. in some ways, I felt slightly unsatisfied at the end of many episodes.
While the stories slightly helped develop each character a little more deeply... it seems like there was a little less attention to detail in this season. Some parts seemed forced and rushed (especially some deaths early on in the season, which left me somewhat unsatisfied because I felt many of those characters deserved a little more detail in the end than what they were given). Some episodes seemed to leave out minor details or skip over things that could have been explored even further. Some even left me thinking, "Wait... is that it? It can't be.. there HAS to be more!"
However, as far as strengths go, this season continued to build my admiration in Janeway as a (fictional) superb leader who I wish I could have known and worked for. And some of the other major details (especially some that linked the series to previous movies and series) were extremely enjoyable, especially since they brought back to light things I may have thought about while watching Star Trek in the past.
Besides, seeing Sulu in Star Trek is always cool. =)
