The best episode of Voyager in the first two seasons.
Basics, parts I and II I've only seen part I! Voyager gets caught by Kazon and stuck on a planet, cue dramatic music with dramatic shots of Janeway, Chakotay and co, and then "To Be Continued..."
On the run from Vidiians, Voyager somehow splits into two: A Voyager that has been attacked by Vidiians, and a Voyager that hasn't...
A rare glimpse into a day on the set with Phillips reveals the lengthy makeup process and shooting schedule for an episode of Voyager.
Visual effects producer Dan Curry explores the making of several amazing visual effects, including the landing of Voyager in "The 37's" and the explosive action in "Basics."
Executive producers Rick Berman, Michael Piller, Jeri Taylor and Brannon Braga discuss pushing the envelope and raising the stakes in Season 2, from action-packed episodes like "Deadlock" to the cliffhanger "Basics."
The Voyagerepisode "Basics, Part II" finally canonically laid this bit of bunkum to rest, when it announced a stardate of 50032.7, while remaining firmly in the 24th century (2373 to be precise).
However, because episodes got out of order in the production sequence, and were shown in a different order again, even this could not be relied upon from week to week.
Let this be the day after the initial statement of the stardate for the episode, and the conclusion is reached that the episode started on 2266-11-21.
All of the stories are either TNG or Voyager and there is quite a bit of variety in the writing styles.
The idea was to educate the hundreds of people submitting scripts under the TNG open script submission policy on some of the basics of Hollywood scriptwriting.
In the April 2002 TV Guide honoring Star Trek’s 35th anniversary, “Yesterday’s Enterprise” was listed as one of the "top five classic episodes of Star Trek: The Next Generation.

The third season TNG episode remains a fan favorite after all these years.
I don't watch Voyager religiously, but ensigns were killed in "Basics, Part II" (eaten), another one as a spy (don't remember episode; but Nelix was playing journalist and threw him into the warp core or something), and I seem to remember other ensigns being killed in "Deadlock" (other than Kim).
Examples of this include the DS9 epiosodes "the ship" "empok nor" and "Starship down" Voyager suffers from this in "deadlock" and in "Basics parts 1 and 2".
However, the episodes The Search Part 1, Paradise Lost and Past Tense Part 1 all indicate that Earth is only a week away.
OWTE - "One Word Title Epidemic" - Read through the titles of Voyager's second season episodes and I'll think you'll see what I mean.
From "Best of Both Worlds" to "Basics," or as far back as "The Menagerie," up to now "Future's End," it seems an impossible task to write a second half of a two-part episode that's anywhere near as good as the first half.
The Jem'Hadar got their turn in "Hippocratic Oath" and Voyager jumped on the bandwagon with the nice-Vidiian episode "Lifesigns" and the Kazon kid in "Initiations".

This is when they need an alien for the show, often throwaway for one episode, so they do some little squiggles on the bridge of the nose, lines on the forehead, or other things that tend to make so many species blend together.
The characters spend the first half-hour getting into a situation and then spend the second half-hour putting things back exactly the way they were at the beginning of the episode so they'll all be in place to do the same thing next week, and the next week, and the next week...

This is when the events of an episode follow Murphys Law by the letter, ie if something bad can occur, it will occur.
Another one I have seen is what I like to call The Jackpot Syndrome.
Kazon ships of several types and sizes were featured in the first three seasons of Star Trek: Voyager, and even more names for them: shuttle, fighter, patrol vessel, raider, frigate, carrier vessel and Predator class.
Except for negligible errors (the re-use of fighter shots for the raider in "Maneuvers" and the bridge and window rows on some of the fighters in "Basics, Part 1"), the difference between the two variants was consistently maintained by the VFX staff.
The episode "Maneuvers" shows even more lights that can be identified as windows.
