Star Trek memes and shitposts
Come on'n get your jamaharon on! There are no real rules—just don't break the weather control network.
Same on both rewatching and not understanding why it's regarded so poorly. Personally I rank this higher than DS9. Totally aware that most people are not going to share that opinion but I just like it better.
Honestly a lot of the complaints about Voyager are just really dumb anyway. Like when people say they get sidetracked too much. The Pilot openly establishes that they're gonna act like Starfleet the whole way home. That means exploring and seeking out new shit. Not to mention the fact that their investigations directly led to finding new technologies and shortcuts.
I've heard people say that Voyager relies too much on either Alpha Quadrant aliens being involved or Earth/Starfleet stuff. That one really makes no sense in the rewatch considering there are like... 10 episodes in the first 4 seasons that involve either Earth, Starfleet or Alpha Quadrant aliens in some fashion. Even Kes. Kes! She gets whined about so much but rewatching it I don't get it. She's not bad in any way the writers just didn't do anything with her, same with Chakotay. She's still well rounded, interesting and well acted.
Voyager is fantastic and I won't tolerate the slander. Sorry that was a bit of a ramble.
Yeah, Hogans death was a bit dumb but both Neelix and Hogan were a bit stupid there. Neelix is used to scavenging stuff but Hogan wasn't. He should have made a bit more of a deal about being uncomfortable or wanting a buddy to watch over him. Neelix also should have considered that the crew are not him and don't have the same level of experience of being forced to get what's needed from random ass planets.
Pretty sure sexism plays a huge role in why Voyager was disliked so much.
100% People were mad about a woman captain, a woman chief engineer, and Kes just being there. I remember reading some forums back then that were just awful. It made me sad because Voyager was my favorite show at the time since Tuvok and Tom Paris are both awesome. Them adding skinsuit of nine to pander to that subgroup of fans was just stupid. Don't get me wrong, I love Seven and Jeri Ryan's acting especially was amazing, they could have gave her a full uniform though. Fucking Rick Berman ruining everything he touches strikes again.
