start with the awesome opening episode of cartaker this seem to be off on the right foot and but somewhere along the line it become the same mind numb drivel every week and by the third year i be so bored i tune out of star trek completely . well do and i be a huge trekkie and you turn me away . where do it go wrong . well for me ( i know people will disagree ) janeway seem more concerned with her hair and coffee than she do the physical and mental well be of her crew . which make her a bad captain . she be also emotionally close off and annoy and and let be honest and have a deep voice than barry white . chakotay and a wonderful character well act be reduce from rebel leader with ball to janeway puppy in less than 45 min . excellent choice for dramatic tension there . paris and the guy we meet in prison become a wonderful guy who rarely ( a in maybe twice over 7 year ) question his superior . the ship will be 70 year from home and yet we meet ferengi and klingon and a romulan across the series . so much for leave those specie in the alpha quadrant . the series suffers from a reliance on technobabble never see before and a regular joe doesn not understand half of what be be say and the rest phase out due to the internal consistency . or lack thereof . relationship develop out of nowhere ( 7 0f 9 and chakotay be virtually lover in season 7 after barely speak for 4 year ) or never change at all . kim be the same naive wide eye guy in season 7 a season 1. great character development there guy and well do . all in all the show suck and in star trek 4 scotty come across a way to re crystalize dilithium and yet 100 year later voyager can not do this so they need to enter dangerous nebula to get more fuel . hmm . they state they can not loose shuttle and then blow up several with no way of replace them . then replace them by build a shuttle . nothing make sense because there be no consistency and character be dull and the series be turn on it head by 7 of 9 and become the 7 of 9 and janeway show at the cost of other character . after the brilliance of the original series and next gen and the darkness of ds9 voyager do what no one else be able to do and kill off star trek . enterprise come along and continue the same trend and but the fatal blow be already strike with this complete waste of time and money and creativity and resource . do yourself a favour and forget they ever exist .
