LOL! That's the thing about Voyager that gets me. On every show there tends to be one character you just don't like. I liked all the characters on TOS, but never cared for Wesley on TNG. On DS9, it was Kira. But Voyager? I couldn't stand half the cast!

Janeway, Chakotay, Neelix, and Kim, to be exact. I used to like Paris, but once they de-balled him, I stopped liking him, too. And on top of that, the other characters were barely likable, save for the Doctor. All in all, Voyager was a disappointing show. I had hopes for Enterprise, but apparently it's a continuation of the same downward spiral that started with Voyager.

Tuvoc? Hell, he was one of the better characters on Voy . . .

I'm trying to decide about Enterprise. The PC seeps in from time to time, but in the case of Cogenitor, I couldn't really condemn Archer for his reaction. There is no Federation, he has no asylum strategy, and he was facing pissing off a clearly technologically-superior species. As much as I appreciated Trip taking the heart-felt morally high ground, I also winced at the fact that he hadn't thought the situation through--no shame to the writers, since they had Trip acting completely in character. The fact is that he should never have started teaching the Cogenitor without a strategy for removing it from its current situation.

Frankly, the fact that you can have this sort of discusion about ENT puts it heads-and-shoulders above TNG, which always stacked the deck by giving its characters the superior technology and a clear moral choice in every case. That increases by a factor of ten with VOY (Seven was the only good thing to happen to that show after its first season).

On the other hand, the thing that convinces me that Bragman and Berma have lost any sort of creativity is the fact that the Borg are making their appearance next week. *shudder*
