I have finished watching Star Trek Next Generation and Deep Space 9 following a friend’s recommendation. I enjoyed both shows and started watching the other one, Star Trek Voyager.
So far, I’m not finding it as enjoyable as the other two. I want to try to see it through the eyes of someone who enjoys the show, maybe it will also help me understand why it feels different somehow.
she was originally brought on as eye candy to boost ratings, she was definitely surpassed that though. kes was a little wierd, probably has to do with the actor, but kes is becoming to OP for the series
The producers knew they were going to fire someone. At point, it was Garrett Wang (Ensign Kim), but he ended up on a TV Guide top 100 hottest people on TV list.
My guess is that the producers picked Jennifer Lien (Kes) because they were already getting better eye candy already, the writers seemed to be having problems writing for Kes, and it was kind of awkward to have Starfleet officers hitting on a nine year old.
