Tuvix's existence in Star Trek: Voyager sparked intense debate and remains a controversial episode almost three decades later. Actor Tom Wright, who played Tuvix, believes the character had to be separated, despite his personal attachment to the role. While alternative solutions are proposed, the ultimate decision to end Tuvix's life was necessary for the continuation of the show and the protection of other crew members.Tom Wright, who played Tuvix in Star Trek: Voyager, says that his controversial character "had to go." Tuvix was created in Voyager season 2, episode 24 "Tuvix", when a transporter accident merges Lt. Tuvok (Tim Russ) and Neelix (Ethan Phillips) into one being. This places Captain Kathryn Janeway (Kate Mulgrew) in a moral dilemma because as the captain, Janeway must decide whether to let Tuvix continue his existence as a new entity or use the Doctor's (Robert Picardo) newfound method to separate Tuvix into Tuvok and Neelix. Voyager's format as a show demands Tuvix's separation, of course, but the script makes a strong argument for Tuvix's continued existence. The lack of a genuinely morally correct answer means "Tuvix" remains a hotly debated Star Trek:Voyager episode, nearly three decades on. The popularity of both the episode and the character of Tuvix prompted TrekTalks 3 to host a panel discussing "Tuvix" during an online event to raise over $109,000 for the Hollywood Food Coalition. Voyager actor Tom Wright weighs in with his own opinion on whether Janeway made the right call or not. Read his quote and watch the "Tuvix" -
