I went with The Maquis Quartet and the Misfits.
I have a soft spot for Chell ;)

You don't say? :guffaw:

Oh geez... you have a special talent to make me laugh out loud, even over the Atlantic Ocean. :guffaw:


EDIT// The Equinoxes have jumped to the lead! *is surprised* They were underdogs just couple of days ago. :)

[ irony ] We've never had results like this before. The numbers have obviously been artificially inflated. [ / irony ]
 
All of the above, but I picked Maquis. I definitely wanted to see more of them, especially in the beginning.
 
I wanted to see more from the Good Shepard Crew. They could have been interesting but only one of them was regulated to a return cameo.
 
Can we pick one from each?

I don't wish to see all of them, just the ones most featured: Celest, Chell & Gilmore.
I think it would be cool if some from each group formed their own group of friends being each is from a group of outsiders on the ship. I think I'd also would have liked to see the Borg woman from "Survival Instinct" again, just to see how she lived out her final days on Voyager.
 
A shameful wanton waste of all these groups. Voyager gets knocked quite a bit but when you consider some of these characters were one timers only or had a few episodes on screen they had quite an impact and seemed far more interesting than some characters ahem ... cough ... cough ... Kim ... cough.

Also might also add characters like Stadi from the pilot episode killed off a quarter of the way into it. So Voyager had the ability to create interesting characters - just a pity we didn't see more of them, especially as the series was ideally suited to using them. In a fanfiction universe they are used much more. Are they used at all in any of the Trek literature?

As to which, if I had to choose, would I have liked to see more. Not the Equinox. They could have followed up the story with an episode later on to tie up a few loose ends there. The Maquis and Misfits deserved more exploration and screen time. However, we had main character Maquis and the series as a whole missed out on the tension and different approach to handling situations the Maquis would had, so scrub that choice. I think we should have seen more of the Misfits, how they interacted with other cast - Seven, Torres, the EMH (one of them was a hypochrondiac [sp]).

Voyager should have been building up these characters more and then they could be red shirts whose possible deaths would mean a little more considering they had such a dangerous and vulnerable position in the DQ.

Ayla should almost get a seperate category seen so often but so rarely heard ...

Yeah but like you said, if they couldn't build up the main characters, what chance the minor ones have? I'm surpirsed at how much development Niomi & Icheb had.
 
This one is easy for me: the Equinox survivors.

I'd have liked to have seen more of them, for sure. Love those moral dilemmas!
 
Which one of these "squads" of minor charcters in Voyager would you have liked to seen in more episodes than one?


The Maquis Quartet (Dalby, Chell, Gerron and Henley) from The Learning Curve?

The Equinox Survivors (Gilmore, Lessing, Morrow, Sofin and Tassoni) from the Equinox two parter?

The Misfits (Mortimer, Bill and Celes) from Good Shepherd?
The Misfits (Mortimer, Bill and Celes) from Good Shepherd !
Takes Trek's Perfect Humans and puts it on its a**
 
Can I vote for the entire non-Seven-of-Nine Voyager cast as minor characters I'd like to see more of? :lol:
 
I have to go with the misfits also, they all fit there roles well, and hit the mark in all the right scenes. Celes was also mentioned by Neelix in "Workforce" pt 2. Mr Herron was such a cool geekoid, would love to see him and Seven on a date, finally, Billy was the classic bundel of nerves, who was ready to jump ship until Celes urged them to stay with the Capt, and Billy stayed, even Mr Herron became a hero of sorts, good ep, they get my vote...
 
I picked the Equinox Survivors.

There are so many stories to go from on there!

Was never really a fan of the other two choices.
 
If I could have all 3 I would but I think I would want the Maquis, then the Equinox. But its all really tight.

I just think that for a show that was supposed to have 2 crews with 2 different ideas, they got together really quick!
