Worst Main Cast Character in Any ST TV Series

I did once turn off an episode, "Memorial" I think it was, over an annoying Neelix scene that I was just not in the mood to have to sit through. Don't think I've done that for any other character before. Granted "Memorial" is a super boring season 6 episode that probably deserved to get turned off, but still.
 
I hate Memorial because it put me in a coma and I thought Janeway sided with Neelix too quickly.
 
I hate Memorial because Remember was better, but Memorial was better than Nemesis.

All stories about false memories.

(Workforce felt like a different story even though it's about memory implants.)
 
I watched Remember today! Good episode. Oh, gah, yes I liked Memorial better than Nemesis. What was that word they used that irritated me, "Glimpsed"? Yes.
I glimpsed you Guy, eating a pizza and not sharing with Teacake. You nemesis. hahaha. Dull episodes. This was where I lost patience for Chakotay. They kept writing bad solo eps.Then he became dull on the bridge and I was sad. I had hopes for an awesome commander.
 
If that's you peeking through my blinds... Do I have to put a shirt on?

It's fricking hot down here.

If Chakotay is a boring waster of time, then why did Seven of Nine pick him as her perfect mate?
 
He himself isn't boring, Guy. That's what's frustrating. He was underutilized.

Yes you can keep your shirt off. If it were socially accepted I'd have mine off when I got too warm.
 
The joy of having the house to myself.

Chakotay is not dynamic, but he will get the job done without any fuss.

You're aware that if Berman gave a damn, Chakotay might have been Kirks great grandson?

But there's some flimsy origin somewhere saying that his tribe didn't leave earth till the 22nd century, squarely qualifying that his Rubber Tree People had nothing to do with the ancient tribes moved by the Preservers from Earth in the 15th century, met by Kirk and then Picard...

THAT WAS AN EPISODE INTRODUCING/EXPLAINING THE MAQUIS!!!????

"Sigh"

Was evil Chakotay any better in Worst Case Scenario or Living Witness?
 
oooh we are allowed to b*tch about characters we hate in this thread? Don't mind if I do ;-)

Per Series:

TOS: Kirk (arrogant redneck prick and epitome of the swinging single pod people of TOS. Also all the fist fights he gets into, seriously, it's the future can we have a little bit of civilization?)

TNG: Wesley (plucky young geniuses are difficult to write as likable characters, and they did not succeed)

DS9: Jake by pure virtue of not being as interesting as the other characters. The DS9 characters were rather excellent.

VOY: Harry Kim (for being a fucking useless, pointless waste of space and not being fired instead of Kes, who was awesome)
Special mentions to: Chekotay (boring and a chaotic amalgam of every Native American nation there is as misunderstood by white writers who didn't bother to do much research) and the Doctor (for being an arrogant, selfish, egotistical prick and a creeper towards Kes and Seven)

ENT: Archer for not being a very good captain at all and having a whiny voice.

Yes, GO FOR IT!

Per Series:

TOS: Kirk (arrogant redneck prick and epitome of the swinging single pod people of TOS. Also all the fist fights he gets into, seriously, it's the future can we have a little bit of civilization?)
You are wrong.
TNG: Wesley (plucky young geniuses are difficult to write as likable characters, and they did not succeed)
meh, he's so trashed I should feel the need to rescue him by this point. But, meh.

DS9: Jake by pure virtue of not being as interesting as the other characters. The DS9 characters were rather excellent
The Visitor! The Visitor! The Visitor!

Also remember that time he was dating the Dabo girl?

VOY: Harry Kim (for being a fucking useless, pointless waste of space and not being fired instead of Kes, who was awesome)
I would totally do him.

Special mentions to: Chekotay (boring and a chaotic amalgam of every Native American nation there is as misunderstood by white writers who didn't bother to do much research)
Okay ya got me on the NA deal. If you were just trashing him for dull niceness I might feel compelled to pipe up a bit of defense. But acoochimoya yeah. EMBARRASSING.

and the Doctor (for being an arrogant, selfish, egotistical prick and a creeper towards Kes and Seven)
You are wrong.

Also we are all creepers towards Seven.

ENT: Archer for not being a very good captain at all and having a whiny voice.
He really is shit. They picked someone based on prestige and rank, apaz he never even worked a shift with Vulcans prior to his special mission of wonderfulness. Dumb. Blame the top brass, I always do.
 
You mean when he's using his face to deflect their blows? It's a bold strategy that not everyone understands.
