Watching Star Trek Voyager, mostly for the first time, and man... did the writers do everything they could to ruin Kes' character... nm

Posted by Ender Jul 8 '13, 18:36

When it was originally on I probably saw most of the first season and then maybe a couple episodes per season after that.

Responses:

Sticking her with that hack Kate Mulgrew being the most egregious. -- nm - David Jul 8, 19:22 2
- she was a better pick than Genieve Bujold who couldn't hack a tv schedule. Erin Gray almost got the part -- nm - Remlik Jul 8, 19:30 1
  - Everything about Mulgrew is terrible. There is no throwing under her. -- nm - David Jul 8, 19:43
One of the more major disappointments in the Trek-verse. -- nm - nubby, Astro-lord, Kemosabe Jul 8, 18:46 19
- DS-9 at it's worst was far worse. - Spawn Jul 8, 18:52 18
  - I just rewatched DS9 from start to finish and it might be the best overall series of Trek ever.... - Remlik Jul 8, 18:55 7
    - Pretty sure I would prefer any other Star Trek series to DS9 to watch straight through. - Spawn Jul 8, 19:12 2
      - the Wormhole as well...making the station a hub of everything was pretty solid -- nm - Remlik Jul 8, 19:29
      - The story is much more believable. One ship having so much interactions is a comical premise. A station makes so much more sense. - David Jul 8, 19:23
    - Heathen. -- nm - Spawn Jul 8, 18:56 3
      - better than Babylon 5 overall.... - Remlik Jul 8, 18:57 2
        
        Now we know you are nuts. -- nm - Spawn Jul 8, 19:04 1
        
        JMS did get screwed by the syndication network and that it hurt the show no doubt -- nm - Remlik Jul 8, 19:05
  - I've just started DS9. - nubby, Astro-lord Jul 8, 18:55 6
    - honestly...if you wanted...skip to the season when Worf joins...some of the Bajoran episodes are just really boring. -- nm - Remlik Jul 8, 19:01 4
      - Yeah, skipping the first couple of seasons would probably be advisable. -- nm - Spawn Jul 8, 19:05 3
        
        well watch the pilot for sure...then jump to season 2 as it's build for the War. -- nm - Remlik Jul 8, 19:34
        
        depends on when the best Trek episode of any show ever is on...the war criminal one. (Mel will back me on this) -- nm - Beaker Jul 8, 19:11 1
        
        that was excellent indeed. -- nm - Remlik Jul 8, 19:35
    - give it time, once Sisko shaves his head it goes to awesome mode -- nm - Beaker Jul 8, 19:00
  - Tuvix says what? -- nm - Beryllium Jul 8, 18:53 2
    - Ugh -- nm - Ender Jul 8, 19:17
    - Do not knock episode 40! -- nm - Spawn Jul 8, 18:54
yeah. though the series was a bit of a mess at times there were some really good Trek episodes -- nm - Remlik Jul 8, 18:39 3
- It was okay for a while before the last season or two when every episode was about Seven or The Doctor learning to be more human. -- nm - Tim Jul 8, 19:16 2
  - some of the holodeck episodes on Voyager had no point. The problem with Voyager was thtat they had to hit the reset button in the last 2 - Remlik Jul 8, 19:39
  - Ohhhh.... maybe DS9 and Voyager get a tie. - Spawn Jul 8, 19:18
Pretty much. -- nm - Spawn Jul 8, 18:37
it really picks up in later seasons -- nm - Beaker Jul 8, 18:37
