Granted, I speak with the particular flaming ire of the former fan and there may be some hyperbole here, but really, it's a terrible show.

Hee! I think this might be the most impassioned "don't watch this show" I've ever read! Yeah, I mean, I've heard some of this stuff before, and like...I don't know. When I think about why I love TNG, it's almost completely because I like the characters and actors. I don't actually care about the stories that much. I'd prefer them to be good and make sense, but it's not the primary reason I'm watching.

It's sort of a moo point right now, since I won't be started any new shows for quite a while - my TV backlog right now is sort of staggering.

Heh. It's always the people who are trying to distance themselves from former affiliations that write the most scathing ones.

Generally, I would say the characters on TNG are drawn better than the ones on VOY, or at least that they don't have to be stupid as often, but it's been soooooo long since I watched either that I could be wrong about that. The actors on TNG are definitely better, IMO; most of the Voyager actors remain wooden for the entire seven years.

Okay, one more reason you should avoid Voyager: there is an episode in which Janeway and Tom Paris break the Warp 10 barrier in a shuttle, which makes them "evolve" into lizards who then crash on a planet and have lizard babies before the rest of the crew finds them and the Doctor gives them a magical serum that "de-evolves" them back into humans. (Or something to that effect; at any rate, there's a rescue mission and they come back as humans, leaving their lizard babies to slither around on the planet for ever and ever.)

I WISH I WERE MAKING THAT UP.

The sad thing is that it's played totally seriously, even though it could've been amazing as someone's cracky bad dream or something.
