From Cinescape:  No, Robert Duncan McNeill is not revealing any more details of this season's Star Trek: Voyager cliffhanger. While talking to SCIFI.COM, the actor revealed his favorite episode of the sixth season Voyager, saying, "LeVar [Burton directed] an episode, a very funny episode--about aliens who hear about us and Starfleet's reputation in the Delta Quadrant, that we're able to win every battle. And then they proceed to impersonate us. We've been doing more comedies in the last year or so. Which I think is great. It's one of the things that is a lot of fun about Star Trek."  When asked if he felt it made a difference having a Trek veteran directing the cast, McNeill answered, "I think it does, because there's the whole history of the franchise. It's such a big part of what we do. When you bring in an actor such LeVar, who is a part of that history, there is a shorthand that you have, definitely. And also, for members of our show, we have a shorthand for each other. It's [also] good for a franchise like this that's been around for so long to have a shot in the arm every now and then with somebody new coming in, a new writer writing a script or a new director coming in. Or guest star. That's another [thing] that's great, that Star Trek still continues to get such a high caliber of actor to come in and do guest spots on the show."
