EXCESSIVE CRITICISM OF "STAR TREK VOYAGER"
For the past two decades, I have never encountered so much criticism of one particular سٹار, ستارہ Trek دکھائیں than I have for the 1995-2001 series, "STAR TREK VOYAGER".
Ironically, I used to buy this negative opinion. یا accept it. One of the reasons I had ignored "STAR TREK VOYAGER" for so many years, because I had assumed that those شائقین who had deemed it inferior to the other shows in the franchise were right. When my sister found out that the rest of our family was ignoring the show, she fervently suggested that we watch it. This happened when the early Season Five episodes were going through its first run. Well, we did. We watched some of those early Season Five shows. We also watched the گزشتہ episodes from Season One to Season Four that were currently in syndication. And guess what? My family became شائقین of the show.
I am not going to claim that "VOYAGER" was perfect. Yes, it had its flaws. I have even گیا کیا پوسٹ a few مضامین about some of the flaws I had encountered. But I was also able to pick out both major and minor flaws in the other Trek shows as well - "STAR TREK", "STAR TREK اگلے GENERATION", "STAR TREK DEEP SPACE NINE" and "STAR TREK DISCOVERY" - while still enjoying them. I never really became a big پرستار of "STAR TREK ENTERPRISE", but there were a good number of episodes that I really enjoyed.
This fervent need to nitpick everything about "STAR TREK VOYAGER" in order to deem it as some kind of pop culture disaster is mind boggling to me. Every time I access an مضمون on the Internet - especially on a Trek message board - about series, the criticism seemed to strike me as unnecessarily excessive . . . and constant. And most of the complaints I have come across are either about some ridiculously minor flaw یا how Janeway was a terrible سٹار, ستارہ ship captain. I do not understand this opinion. Janeway had made her mistakes. So did the other Trek captains. What made her worse than the others? Her gender? سٹار, ستارہ Trek shows were not allowed to have women as the leads, یا even worse, in the command position?
مزید importantly, these same شائقین seem very reluctant to point out the flaws - both minor and major - about the other Trek shows. At least not to this extreme degree. What is going on? If آپ are going to state that "VOYAGER" was simply the worst دکھائیں in the Trek franchise, do not expect me to buy this opinion anymore. After seeing the دکھائیں and the others in the franchise, I really have great difficulty in accepting this view. So what is it? What is the real truth? I guess in the end, these are سوالات that no one can really answer. After all, art and entertainment are subjective.
