Who do you like better, Seven or Kes?

I think every character had great things to contribute. Each one had their own charms and wonderful personalities and they all brought something unique and amazing which makes this show the best series, at least it's the best to me. It seems like there is always a question of who is your favorite, or who is better. Why can't we say that they are all good?:techman:
 
Kes. I hated Seven and all her hiring/development represented.

Knock the quiet, intelligent character off the show and give us a chick in a catsuit with giant, unrealistic tits so the ratings will skyrocket.

And the thing I hate most is that it worked (ratings-wise, anyway).
 
I didn't care for either really. But the later season with Seven of Nine did have more better episodes in my opinion.
 
I love them both equally.

They're the only two characters I did like, the the only reason I really watched Voyager.

Kes was a gentle and sensitive character, but Seven of Nine was more like a walking super computer. Although generous, the boobs seemed in proportion to me and were the right shape. :techman:

She intially worked better than Kes, who got partially deregulated by the time of Season Two.
 
I think Seven of Nine was much more than just a big chest. There was an intelligent strong woman behind them. To be honest she made you see past her chest because she was such a good actress.
 
My vote is for Kes, she's warmer and those eyes.. and she has a nice rear.. and her voice.. and so on and so on.....
 
Seven. Kes' character was never really developed jsut like Tuvok's. More could have been done with them. Kes didnt really do anything apart from go out with Nelix and develop her mental abilities.
 
Equal.

What i would of loved was if they kept Kes and yet added Seven of Nine. I feel very much that there could have been some amazing episodes and character development with both of them being on the show at the same time. Kes being loving and warm hearted could have mixed very well with 7's coldness and lack of humanity, causing much friction between the two with Kes trying her best to teach Seven how to be warm.
 
I think that Seven had more development and became a more interesting character than Kes was. Maybe if Kes did not leave she would have also been more developed

I have to disagree here. I think that Kes was brilliant in seasons 2 and 3. OK, they did a mistake when they confirmed her to sickbay, she should have had a more free role which would have made her available for more action episodes. But we did get some great scenes and great interaction with The Doctor.

There were also some gret episodes where Kes played an important role, such as "Corld Fire", "Persistence Of Vision", "Tuvix", "Resolutions", "The Swarm", "Warlord", "Darkling", "Before And After" and "Scorpion". She did actually save the ship on at least two occasions (Persistence Of Vision and Cold Fire).

It was a shame that they did waste such a good character.

id say Seven cause Kes is telapathic and can read your mind so if i said she was stupid i would be dead

Not entirely true. Kes is not a mind-reader and she would never hurt anyone on purpose if it wasn't absolutely necessary for saving the ship or some crewmates.

I totaly agree!
 
I believe they didn't have the budget to keep on 10 main characters. That would have been a very large number. It might have been difficult to give all 10 characters an equal time and development. Perhaps Kes could have stayed on as an occasional guest star
 
Kes, Kes a million times Kes.

Kes asks you if you want to be glued to her and have sex for 50 hours, meanwhile, well... Seven's a virgin. Most people are backward in thinking who is most forward proponent of sexuality between the two, since Seven was a coldfish, and Kes was open and loving.
Except for one leetle problem, I didn't want to be glued to Kes and have sex for 50 hours, I would have traded 50 intimate hours with Kes for 15 intimate minutes with Seven. :)

But seriously, I thought Jeri was light years ahead of Jennifer Lien as an actor. But I do agree with those who think Lien had a great voice. So, does anyone know if she was, or is, a singer?
 
The one thing I have always found funny was that Kes only died because Wang/Harry Kim saved himself at like the last second.
