    Me too.
    No, trying to troll Lynx. You're not being very subtle about it.

    please tell me how I'm trolling him. He flat out insulted my whole statement and I was defending it

    While Kes was certainly not the best Trek character EVAAR and I overall prefer Seven, I don't think Kes was a genuinely damaging character and Jennifer Lien was a competent, wonderfully quirky (I'm a fan of the MIB cartoon and she gave a better account of herself than Avery Brooks in American History X).

    I disagree about the Avery Brooks part and only that part.

    Avery was outstanding in American History X. He even has the most important line in the film. "What has all this done to make you life better?" is single question that makes Ed Norton's character rethink & change his life for the better. His bond with Brooks is pivotal to that film. The film would have fallen apart without Brooks character and what he represented. He was the only Black man during the entire films run that he trusted and thought differently of.

    agreed, the only bad part about that movie was that Jennifer Lien was in it

    what, am I not allowed to dislike her? It's my opinion that she's a terrible actress. That's allowed isn't it? :cool:

    I'm not sure what you're talking about...I've blocked all parts of that movie with her in it from my memory.

    Why must every thread be turned into a "Jennifer Lien bashing thread" or "Kes bashing thread"?

    First of all, this thread is actually not about "American History X" so stay on topic.

    Second, the fact that Jennifer Lien had a role in this highly rewarded movie is clear evidence that she's a good actress, otherwise she haven't been offered the job.

    Third, I find the "campaign" against Jennifer Lien tasteless to say the least. She's a good actress and deserves respect for her work.

    As for the earlier seasons of Voyager and why people prefer them, which this thread is actually about, I guess that many fans like the fact that all Characters were given their fair share of the spotlight compared to the later seasons which were focused on three characters.

    The stories were better in the earlier seasons too.

    As the topic states "why do people prefer the earlier seasons?", my answer is "Kes". I absolutely loved the character and and IMO Jennifer played the part very well.
