- I love the ECH. It's easily my favorite part of Voyager.
Since people keep asking, this episode is:
Season 6, Episode 4: Tinker Tenor Doctor Spy
Here's a link to the episode information: bit.ly/npA6PI - วิทยาศาสตร์และเทคโนโลยี
To everyone who thinks this scene is too cheesy: That's the joke. It's because the Doctor was daydreaming it.
@@rovhalt6650 His comment has substance, your comment is nothing but hot air. Please go away
@@rovhalt6650 For you to say "no one thinks that" and "your comment is pointless" is nothing more than a sign a little mind with an inferiority complex. You do (not) speak for everyone, you only waste everyone's time with your comment because you want to be noticed. Sad. Now go away troll
@@kylel.1965 Looks like the troll has crawled back into it's sewer home
I honestly thought this scene was completely ridiculous until it turned out to be a daydream. Holy fuck this clip was awesome
Tbf, it's also badass
"Computer, Activate the ECH. "
Then proceeds to step over Janeway's dead body.
rofl I never noticed that!
Janeway: Oh no, I fell over. Guess I'll just die, then.
His daydreams are kinda fucked up
@@bsharpmajorscale she's fine just being assimilated like the rest of the crew
@@mrcritical6751 well just be glad your not watching mine you'd call his tame compared to mine which are way more fucked up
Captain Picardo
Bartman954 lol
+Bartman954 As easy as that joke was, kudos; you still made me laugh.
+Bartman954 Clever, very clever.
+Bartman954 The Italian version.
+Bartman954 This wins the internet
The command pips appearing one at a time is SO hilarious.
Harry Kim would agree with us, "This is my favorite part."
Lol, this episode is super cheesy, but one of my favourites.
Bart Something it's supposed to be cheesy ^_^
"You have the bridge."
"Indeed. Shields to Maximum!" [non-chalantly steps over Janeway]
I lol'd so hard at that.
I think the Dr spent way to much time with that black and hite holo action series that the chielf helsman loved.
"We are the Borg."
"Yes, yes, I know very well who you are."
LOL
Greatest response to them holy crap
...
Yep heard that line over and over let's just get on with it
I was your 666th like
"yada, yada, yada"
"WE ARE THE BORG!"
Yes we know who you are...
Sounds like a scene from Doctor Who lol.
+Chris Barnett I'll always salute Sean's mom as former Prime Minister. She wasn't afraid to die.
+Chris Barnett Sounds like what everyone says when they do Borg Red Alerts on STO.
Jones: my name is Harriet jones prime minister of Great Britain
Borg:Yes we know who you are
Chris Barnett Docs becoming a dardreamer
My name is Jean Luc, former Borg Commander.
Yes, we know who you are.
The part where the rank pips appear on his collar never fails to make me grin like a goddamn Cheshire Cat.
I love Janeway's reaction when she see it later. "Nice touch." :-)
And Harry too, "This is the part I like!"
The Borg the hierarchy it's all the same to me just another bully that didn't know when to back off
It has a power ranger morphin' feel to it, it is so tokuzentai!!
th-cam.com/video/Ezrbyf6t9mY/w-d-xo.html
Yes, it's like a superhero transformation scene - move over Shazam, He-Man, and Sailor Moon - I Have the Power!!
Robert Picardo can really chew the scenery given the chance. I love that he has been in at least one episode of every Stargate series as well as The Orville. Dude's got some serious sci-fi chops.
Woolsey (Played by Picardo) was a regular thing in more than a few seasons of Stargate Atlantis I think.
@@zeehero7280 Oh yes. He commanded Atlantis in the final season. But I think he might have appeared in only one episode of Stargate Universe.
Not just those he’s also in Total Recall as the robot cab driver and even did some children’s sci-fi when he played a space cop undercover as a principle in the first live action Ben 10 movie. The man is a sci-fi staple at this point
He's rubbed shoulders with....The Enterprise E crew.
Captain Sisko and the DS9 crew
Voyager (obviously)
General Hammond of the SGC
General O'Neill
General Landry
Doctor Weir of Atlantis
Colonel Carter of Atlantis
Colonel Young & Telford of Destiny
Captain Ed Mercer of The Orville
Is there any actor whose actually had this much face time with so many A list crews and shows?
@@mrcritical6751 He also voiced Gold Amazo in the animated justice league
"Smoke me a kipper - I'll be back for breakfast!"
"ECH - what a guy!"
Eyyyy I see what you did there my fellow Red Dwarfer!
Stoke me a clipper, skipper!
This had to be the last comment I expected on this video LOLOLOL
@@mimikyupikachu4385 Boys from the Dwarf!
The Borg are such smegheads.
"over my dead program" is one of my favourite lines from this show
Wouldn't "decompiled program" also work?
I would have preferred 'my dead matrix'.
"Over my dead photons."
It should have been "over my zero formatted program". But it is hilarious as it is also.
Don't forget his doctor, door stop comeback.
Did he just out nerve-grip an actual Vulcan? haha
+Michael Martin Yes, he did. If it had been a Redshirt instead of Tuvok, The Doctor would have used the Vulcan Death Grip instead.
Wow, I'm here watching random Star Trek clips and come across your comment. What's up, Michael? XD lol
LOL hello. Doing freelance, and free, scientific document correction work. I ought to start charging XD
Michael Martin
Perhaps you should! XD lol
Second time it's happened to Tim, Picard did it to him in TNG but he wasn't Tuvok there.
The funny thing is he was eventually really upgraded to his ECH fantasy.
And then the voyager really got a photonic cannon against the Borg in the series finale
@@emizerri It seemed like a good idea at the time.
@@emizerri Photonic cannon? You mean the transphasic torpedoes?
@@krisdphillips I read that as "transphobic torpedoes" and had to stop for a second of contemplation.
@@najtofnin2009 loool
This is but one of the reasons why the EMH is the best fucking character on the voyager. I love this program to pieces.
The best char was Tuvix
@@Kalenz1234 F in the chat bois, another victim of Captain Janeway's brutal reign.
@@bsharpmajorscale *Coffee Lust
I really don't understand why you had to say "best fucking character". It doesn't sound as cool as you think it does. That's just negative.
You love the program to...(wait for it) bits?
As a chronic day dreamer myself, I absolutely LOVE this episode.
My ADD causes me to daydream at moments I shouldn't be.
I don't know what happened to them
it's the borg🤣
It looks like the crew had fun during this episode, they must have been laughing off screen. I know I would.
This... and the Captain Proton (Flash Gordon) episode. :)
@@FutureReverberations ... Janeway, Queen of the spiders...
I could just imagine the whoopie cushion line coming from someone actually putting one on the captain's chair during one of the takes.
I wonder about Jeri Ryan, though; she had to make all those admiring expressions -- surely she risked a facial muscle strain!
Tim Russ was the great prankster during the shooting days of Voyager.
I like how Harry, later in the episode, says, "This is my favorite part." He's referring to the pips (button rank effect).
Captain Janeway sort of smirks and says, "Nice touch." or something like that.
Warning Primary shields are failing
This segment brought to you by Lieutenant Barclay
When he gets the hyposprays out, I just lose it every time.
I was like "WHERE DID YOU GET THEM FROM"
Fantasizing is easy, fantasizing rationally is hard.
+ScientistCat Holographic hyposprays?!
Xepthrichros
They're supposed to be as "real" as the crewmen in his fantasy.
ScientistCat I'm just randomly throwing out stuff.
It’s like a Capcom Vs. Marvel perk lol
1:57 That look Seven gives the Doctor after he dispatches with Chakotay and Tuvok...she definitely wants to interface!
It was on that day, Seven's Resistance to the Doctor was Futile.
Even though this scene is a daydream, I thought their budding relationship was going somewhere and leading to something and then Seven took a hard right turn into Chakotay and ended up with him.... Like What?!
@@knownothing5518 Eh. Should've been Janeway x Seven, judging by where things have gone since Voyager ended. XD
Tim Kerman it was definitely forced when you consider they don’t end up together in ST:Picard
@@KuraIthys lol smh man that ain't even canon as far as I'm concerned. That show and Discovery mean nothing. Don't get me started on Lower Decks.
love the command pips appearing one by one on his collar.
such fun
+Negasonic Teenage Warhead Yeah, thats great. Or 7's look when he take down Tuvok. Captain Doc Zimmerman is a real hero. :-)
+Negasonic Teenage Warhead Even his colleagues agreed with you and commented on it when they saw his daydreams.
ECH's photonic cannon>Riker's joystick
+Mass Ryb See also: Ben Sisko's pimp hand.
JoeytheJoeyX3
Thank you for the recommendation!
That’s the best thing I’ve seen in weeks.
Excuse me, I have to go negotiate with some Romulans!
Deanna disagrees
while i am familiar with Ben Sisko's pimp hand and the Riker Maneuver, i cant say the same for Riker's joystick, whatever that is. somebody explain this to me please, oh and don't tell me its number one's #1because no one refers to it as a joystick. seriously no one.
@@buckwheatthe3rd If you know the riker maneuver, then you know riker's joystick. th-cam.com/video/N4x1K97JZG0/w-d-xo.html But riker calls it the "manual steering column".
the emergency kick ass hologram
"Over my dead program." Most badass line from the EMH- pardon, I mean ECH.
Tinker, Tenor, Doctor, Spy was one of my all-time favorite episodes of the entire series. You can tell the entire cast had a blast hamming it up and generally acting ridiculous. So much fun.
was the photonic cannon holographic?🤔🤔🤔
@@raven4k998 The entire scene is.
@@CptJistuce you masturbating🤣
@@raven4k998well it wasn't real until the 32nd century with the Voyager J.
1:25 I am Captain Robert Picardo, not to be confused with my equally follicly challenged counterpart on the USS Enterprise, Captain Picard.
hmartinspliff congratulations. You made my coffee squirt outta my nose.
Jonathan Ryan Tung sounds painful, the borg can now empathize. Well, they could have before they died at the hands of Captain Picardo
Follicly challenged....you sir win the internet!!
At first i thought that the ECH wasn't a real thing, until i watched the episode "Workforce," where the ECH was a very important part of the episode.
Yeah, partway through the voyage they gave him a command protocol, but he doesn't get much opportunity to use it
At the time of this episode I believe it is still not really but either near the end of this one or shortly after they add if, though I believe workforce is the only time it's used.
During tinker Tenor doctor spy, it is also activated ... for less then helpfull means
The bit with the pips is so goddamned hype.
I love how the episode completely changed to the Doctor having to play out his fantasy to fool a threat later. I watched this show for my level of escapism, and I got a good dose of meta reality in this one.
The closest Voyager ever got to to a Japanese-style transformation sequence. Love it.
captain I don't know what happened to them
a Borg ship is approaching🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
What the hell does this have to do with Japan? Stop smoking and drinking so much!
I'm pretty sure the photonic cannon, aside from being the anime "sure-kill move you bring out after the fight's over" cliche, is an homage to Mazinger's photonic beam. Making this the most anime scene in Star Trek.
@@CptJistuce shut up loser
This is definitely the funniest Star Trek episode ever.
Immortalfire I agree.
Immortalfire I don't know... the one where Data's cat turns into an iguana was pretty hilarious.
Immortalfire Oooh, it's a tie between this and Promethus, where Andy Dick fires a torpedo at a friendly ship.
+dragonknightleader1 oh my fucking lord, i forgot andy dick was on star trek hahaha
+Immortalfire That and DS9's baseball episode.
Borg: We are the Borg.
Doc: I know very well who you are.
Haha. xD
Gotta love Voyager!
I read your comment at the same time I heard it. Lol!
"Computer... Activate the Photonic Cannon." Smugness levels at maximum, Captain xD
I love that part ❤
Even better when he activates it again for the final battle 😊❤
The more a person watches Voyager one fact is very clear... The Doctor steals every scene that he's in! Thank you, Mr. Picardo!!!
Just LOVED this episode of Voyager! The beginning of the ep literally had me laughing for like 20 minutes!! Very entertaining! And I just got a kick out of that Doc! Just a great character.
I love how there's not explosions or anything like that from weapons fire in the doctor's fantasy's just talk enemy shields are intact🤣🤣🤣
One of the most hilarious episodes of Voyager. When The Doctor's daydreams get out of hand, and they lock him behind a forcefield in sickbay and he's talking to himself, i'm literally rolling on the floor laughing.
This makes me laugh every time! It's so cheesy, and it loves it. Like the life of Walter Mitty, the Doc's daydreams are funny and whimsical. But he does save the ship.
best part is the pips appearing
1:50 - 1:55 Lol... Vulcan nerve pinch meets HoloNerve pinch.
I want that Photonic Cannon on my STO ship
+Izznogood76 Dev's don't like giving science ships "Oh Shit!" weapons, because as you know Gravity Well III is on par with Cannons: Rapid Fire III, and Beam Overload III >.>
+Izznogood76 I want the nuclear warhead on my ship.
Only if.. would be the most powerful thing in sto :P
+Izznogood76 I was actually looking the other day to see if it was an actual weapon to get. :)
+Izznogood76 Put it on science vessels only. Muahahahaha.
The best part of this episode is when he calls for the photonic cannon for real in front of everyone and Tuvok and Harry look at him like he has two heads LOL
Even better that they manage to adapt and play along. He basically pulls the same deal Kirk did in two episodes with the non-existent self-destruct device except he uses a non-existent weapon.
@@shadizersilverhand2113 The Corbomite Maneuver.
I never realized just how stacked 0:21 Jeri Ryan was as a child watching this.
She was insanely hot
Robert Picardo was quite literally perfect for this role. I can't even imagine anyone else pulling this off as well and with such perfect timing. I miss Voyager.
Excellent "daydreaming sequence" scene of the Voyager's iconic "EMH"... Robert Picardo did such an amazing job bringing this likeable & lovable character to life...one of the best in Star Trek history. Absolutely well-acted.
Wish we could go back in time and create 7 more seasons. Love this show!
Now that would be great!!
Agreed. The show was actually getting better towards the end of the series. The show was really starting to pick up as soon as Jeri Ryan joined the cast, and Jennifer Lien "got the boot."....Probably due to the fact that Jennifer's acting was "absolutely horrible."
@@wadeleetorres2585 Lien played a fine warlord.
Eh, I hated Ryan’s acting. AND the reason she got the role in the first place.
I liked Kess more
Robert Picardo's EMH is abso one of my all time fave Trek characters. Him and Seven had some of my fave scenes/stories. :)
Yes, they're awesome
"I'm The Doctor. I'm a Hologram. I'm from the planet Earth, Founding Member of The Federation. I'm 903 Quadrillion Quadrillion Terabytes of Whoop Ass. And I'm the One who is going to save this Ship. Got a Problem with that?"
I had such a Crush on 7...
Favorite scene from this episode is actually in Engineering when the Doctor's daydreaming gets out of control. I love it because of the two lines the Computer says and how she says it. I'd like to believe the actress enjoyed saying them, too.
Jesus
now that's a canon
The British Tindog all Federation starships need to be retrofitted with them .
The Doctor had a very active imagination. LOL!!!
His acting is absolutely magnificent
i died of laughter when the buttons appeared on his collar.
Episodes focusing on the doctor are one of my top favorites!
This is one of my favorite voyager episodes.
Anything that replaces Janeway and shuts up Lucky Seven Sampson..
i always loved when they sass the borg
Easily my favorite episode of Voyager!!
The ECH was brilliantly played by Bob Picardo. In reality, had Voyager had such a program up and running efficiently there are numerous occasions where the ECH would have made better decisions than Captain Janeway. For a start he was not susceptible to stress emotions, extreme fatigue etc that the human crew were nor to telepathic influences or conventional pathogens such as bacteria and viruses. Surely he should have been used as a routine back up to KJ allowing her some proper "off duty" days?
"You will be assimilated."
"Over my dead program."
i love voyagers recurring villain progression. it goes from the kaizon to the garbage men to the hunters to the borg. the borg are also recurring throughout though after the kaizon.
Dr. Picardo was the "Fonz" of this show....the breakout character who made the show more interesting than it would be without him.
My very most favorite Voyager character, too! I absolutely love the Emergency Hologram Doctor
God, I love the Doctor... And Voyager... And Star trek!
Me too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D
I loved Voyager, but the concept of it didn't quite reach the potential it had. It could easily have outshined ds9 and next generation had they done a few things differently. With a little more maquis and a little less kazon seasons 1 and 2 could have been better. The vidians should have been included in more episodes including a visit to their home world. By the end of the run they had watered down the Borg too much. Not that I was disappointed in them, but the Borg were scarier for the most part in next gen. And there were a few aliens they could have used more, like the krenin. Seven of nine was a brilliant addition to the crew though.
the EMH regularly daydreams about the death of his closest friends and coworkers
0:22 that image on the right is part of what kept me watching this show in my youth.
It was that one episode that involved the "baryon(?) sweep" when the Enterprise was docked at a maintenance station, and Picard had to subdue his attacker when he was the only Starfleet member onboard the ship. The attacker also happened to be portrayed by Tim Russ (the same actor who later portrayed Tuvok in ST:Voy).
One of the great TNG episodes
He was also on the bridge of the Enterprise B in Generations.
COMPUTER! (beeps) Activate the PHOTONIC CANNON!!
FIRE
DEALING WITH BORG LIKE A BOSS!! XD
It's the popping of the pips that make the scene extra dramatic. ;-)
The Photonic Cannon's beam the Doc envisioned was similar to Chaotica's Death Ray.
Now that you mention it, they are very similar. Which of the two are better.
i had the same thought
I saw an Enders game similarity as well.
I do like the idea that, in certain emergency situations, the medial hologram can assume command of the ship.
The Spiritual Successor to Ace Rimmer !!!
Love the fact that the Doctor takes out Tuvok with a Vulcan neck pinch.
Doctor: This isn't even my final form!
He could’ve eavesdropped as furniture with shape shifting ability.
What is his power level !?
Everybody gangsta until the doctor charges the photonic cannon
This is so cheesy its awesome
I always knew that he would have been an excellent commander. Perhaps this was the reason why he was chosen to lead Atlantis over the most difficult times?
Wait a sec.... he is Mr. Woolsey from the SG series? I just.... didn't know.
***** Yup, it's the same guy.
If they used the same process of drawing on Starfleet's finest command-officers just like Zimmerman drew on the best doctors to create the EMH (including McCoy, as was mentioned regarding a particular surgical technique he used).
He's not only an emh and ech, but probably also emergency singer hologram, he also become emergency lawyer (hologram) for the Stargate team XD
This was a great episode, and the look on Chakotay's face towards the end was perfect!
From my childhood, my favorite episode from the sparse ones that I watched was 'Blink of an Eye' However, when I went back and watched all the seasons (not finished yet) I decided this was my new favorite. I LOVE when the 4 rank dots appear after he says 'activate the ECH' 0:54 It is so hilarious!!
Agreed, that's hands down my favourite part.
"Blink of an Eye" was ripped off from "The Wild, Wild West" B&W episode where a frontier chemist invents a drug that could speed him up so he could commit crimes; ironically it was more realistic than the Trek episode, since he had to be careful not to move too fast in order avoid catching fire from air-friction..... and of course that's how James West kills him, by dousing him with alcohol and letting it ignite.
How would the 'slower' air particles around the person cause an increase in kinetic energy in the person. Even if this was imagined in newtonian physics, shouldn't he freeze rather than burn?
Tim-J.Swan Newton's first law that an object at rest remains at rest, resulting in air-friction when a person runs into them.
Simon Purist
plus its tv, theyl do what they want, im still trying to figure out why when scottie beamed that us air force piolot back into his jet as they were going back into their own time, made him forget where he was, at least in this episode the explanation makes some form of sense
I think show would have been even better if they just left him in charge. Immune to disease, psychic attacks, radiation. Under possible hacking then the E.C.H. could be relieved but this show would have been funny as hell.
TazeMeBro McCleskey
When the doctor is using the mobile emitter he is separated from the ships computer system. So hacking wouldn’t effect him
They later revisited the concept, albeit in a far more serious manner, later on
I would watch the shit out of an ECH show. I trade all seasons of Discovery and Section 31 for it.
Would've been funny if he'd've turned into Patrick Stewart :p
FreeHomeBrew Hahahahaha YES! lol
Captain Picardo :-D
+axelbjefs It's sad how few people probably get your comment, from not realising his real name is Robert Picardo.

1:00 That "awe struck" look from Seven impressed with the Doctor. Love the fantasy!
Even better at 1:56
This episode was insanely funny. The best part is knowing that Seven got to watch all of his fantasies play out on the Holodeck.
Doctor acting very much like The Doctor here. :)
The Doctor acting as The Doctor. The most Doctor a Doctor can get.
Heck, for all we know it could have been a deliberate homage. There was an explicit one on TNG, after all.
The best Voyager episode.
Star Trek well had humor in it, people like to forget that.
"Over my dead program!"
One of the best and cheesiest lines ever uttered in Star Trek.
I am pretty sure this is how the final season of Star Gate Atlantis exisits
Stargate:Atlantis was a daydream of the doctor
Borg: *We are the Borg*
ECH: _”Yes, I know very well who you are.”_ 😂 🖖
This show was made as a parody, but it could have been no joke the greatest thing ever as happen to Voyager as a sequel!
Star Trek: Tales of the Emergency Command Hologram
im surprised the doctor didnt write that as a holoprogram. Very on brand for him.
I love how they keep showing 7 of 9 admiring him with each command...
ᵂᵉ'ʳᵉ ᵇᵉᶜᵒᵐᶦⁿᵍ ᵈʳᵒⁿᵉˢ
Love the reaction of 7/9 at 1:00 "You are the alpha male" look, reminds me of the look that Kira gave to Gul Dukat after he commanded the alien ship to power down their shields on DS9
and then she probably needed copious amounts of mind bleach for having such dirty thoughts about a hated enemy of the Bajoran people xD
"We are the borg!"
"I know who you are!"
The Doctor just burned The Borg with that line.
The fact it's all a holograms daydream is the real kicker.
One of my favorites! I wish they used the ECH more often in the series once it was made real later on.
I think I like Janeway better ... but I do love the photonic canon.
UniversalPotentate you!!!!!! Are dis.....missed!!!

That look after he takes out Tuvok 😂😂😂😂
That was most entertaining. The highlight of Robert Picardo's life.
And I'm a little disappointed that there were never any Borg encounters with the Dominion.
Dominion would have gotten stomped just like to federation. Aside from their electro disruptor weapon, their technology was basically on par with the alpha quadrant species'.
its so corny i love it
(01:05) i love his facial expression
with pureness and seriousness.
This was the exacly same eyes i had When i was a '90 kid,
and watching Star Trek Voyager on CRT display.
1:01 is when those pips appear on the ECH's collar. Such a touching moment
