  • The crew of Star Trek Voyager that we grew to enjoy over the series is not the crew that Starfleet intended for one of the fastest vessels in the Federation.
    But the Caretaker incident ruined a lot of plans that the crew had and put a 70,000 light year gap between them and home. What's more over a dozen were lost in the initial displacement.

    @bobsomething4733 Před 4 lety +114

    So your weird Vulcan rant got me thinking about a more in depth concept: could Vulcan choosing to smile around a mostly human crew be considered a logical mannerism? If she was a nurse then it meant she'd be regularly interacting with patients and a nice smile and some empathy, even if faked, could go a long way. Now obviously this is a bit too open minded for most stuck up Vulcans, who are frankly quite smug and quite douchey at the best of time and just bland and boring at the worst of times. Still, would an attempt at mimicking human psychology and behavior, even if deemed inferior, be illogical for a Vulcan doctor working around humans? If your job requires you to be a people person, being a constantly emotionally stunted prick would make your job less efficient. Thus it would be illogical to be that way.
    Of course Vulcan logic as written is often quite illogical.

    • @saiyansomething73
      @saiyansomething73 Před 4 lety +23

      I think you've hit on a "fascinating" concept for a future character in a series. Most Vulcans in Starfleet tend to serve in more scientific or engineering capacities. So their personalities or lack thereof wouldn't necessarily inhibit them from working alongside non-Vulcans. But a Vulcan operating in a more personalized and intimate setting could be a real challenge for a typically repressive species. It definitely opens up possibilities for character development as well as the back-story of why a Vulcan would enter Starfleet medical as a physician or nurse.

    • @bobsomething4733

      @@saiyansomething73 Vulcans were cripplingly underutilized in the TNG era, possibly because writers didn't want to rethread Spock. Of there was Tuvok but VOY writing is just terrible for anyone not the Doctor or Seven of Nine.
      Still, it stand to reason there is no logic is being emotionless if one has a profession which requires them to work with highly emotional people. Learning to read and understand them is still distinct from being ruled by them. It would require both mental fortitude but also a lot of inner balance for a Vulcan to work in such an environment which I suspect is, maybe, why we don't really see Vulcan Doctors and Nurses in Starfleet. The same reason we don't see Vulcan Councillors. It would be about as effective as having a Klingon for ship psychiatrist (just in a completely opposite direction).

This new Vulcan, named Xon, was a full-blooded Vulcan who would have had a character arc very similar to that of Data from TNG; he would try to understand humans by experimenting with human emotions and mannerisms.

    Cavit also lived on Kamin for a while! He died from not knowing that “brace for impact” doesn’t mean “run across the room”. He seemed fairly old to be ‘just’ a Lt. Cmdr, perhaps down to his being judgemental?

    I'd love to see a version where all the surviving characters died and all the dead characters survived and see those new developing personalities and how they'd manage all the same encounters as Voyager. I imagine there'd be a lot less mercy for the Marquis under the Starfleet First Officer if he took over.

    Let's not forget the loss of "Good" Janeway. That piece of Janeway died during that Caretaker wave, causing the being that was left to be an unstable lunatic who tortured her crew (mostly Harry Kim) for 7 long years till they escaped back to Earth.

      Elaborate how Janeway is any more "unstable" than Picard or Kirk. I just watched the entire series in order after being a massive TNG fan for years, and now I think Voyager is my favorite because of how much more real the characters feel. Don't get me wrong, Picard and crew are all very nice and astute and poetic and all. But I think the Voyager crew strikes a good balance between idealistic and relate-able.

      @@EingefrorenesEisen She changes history, eradicating many potential lives if you so want, just to save a few people (Endgame). She tortures people while accepting the risk of them dying - without showing remorse (as opposed to, I'd like to point out, Archer does after torturing) (Equinox). On the other hand she endangers her entire crew for the live of the one person she seems most fond of - Seven of Nine (the episodes where they hunt down a Borg ship to get some device for her).
      I'd be the first in line if you argue that's just because her character was being badly written due to the VOY writer's constant clashing, but... that doesn't change how her character is depicted. I can imagine her being the maternal-leader-type character that is strong if necessary but able to consolidate those under her command - a trait Picard is lacking entirely. But with all her lapses she appears to be a psychologically quite unstable individual. Which would be understandable. But I don't think that the writers intended it to be that way, it's just what came out of the mess that writing VOY was.
      If you just watched TNG and VOY to this date, then I warmly recommend DS9 to you based on the reason you liked VOY. DS9 started with having "proper" characters as opposed to TNG, i.e. having characters that are more relate-able than the all-perfect ones in TNG. VOY actually went a bit away from that again I feel... as with those perfect characters like Kim and Chakotay. Also DS9 has more side-characters, all of them quite relate-able.

      @@RimaNari You forgot that the aliens she threatened them with were the ones who wanted to kill them anyway, and were seeking vengeance on the equinox crew. They'd already violated several protocols at that point. Not that that means they ought to be executed, but it's not really "crazy" to believe that it's poetic justice for someone who commits genocide gets some bad karma. Should she have left the Borg alone, too? IMO you've got a double standard. Picard literally went way more mental than Janeway (did if you consider First Contact canon, which from my understanding it is) in the scene where he smashes the little ships and wants to hunt the Borg down like a bloodthirsty murderer.... Not that I blame him -- he suffered severe trauma and the borg are awful, but my point is, you can paint anyone as bad with your way of thinking.
      Plenty of captains risk lives of their crew to save one member. It's literally one of the most common things in Trek. Happened with the Enterprise going back after Picard when he was assimilated. SHRUG.

    a bit of a correction ... while Nicholas "Nick" Locarno and tom Parris were played by the same actor they were not the same character
    Tom crashed a shuttle he was piloting near Caldik Prime, killing three other Starfleet officers. Afraid he would lose his commission, Paris falsified records that would later reveal the cause of the accident as pilot error. His efforts to cover up the error succeeded, but overwhelmed by guilt and regret, he confessed. He was court-martialed for his actions and dishonorably discharged from Starfleet. This caused a major rift between Paris and his father.
    Cadet First Class Nicholas "Nick" Locarno was the leader of Starfleet Academy's Nova Squadron in 2368. He was expelled from Starfleet Academy after causing the death of a fellow cadet and forcing those under him to cover up the accident.
