Worst Main Cast Character in Any ST TV Series

Did Jar Jar cook from scratch for seven years, feeding an ungrateful bunch of spoiled replicator brats? Did Jar Jar have sex with a wild Klingon hellcat? Did Jar Jar manipulate a Starfleet captain and her entire crew in order to save a vulnerable young woman? Was Jar Jar a caring, emotionally mature and selfless nanny?

No.
 
Tony Todd is great, but the chances of young Jake really growing up into him are about on par with the reality of adult Will Wheaton vs. Hunk Adult Wesley from "Hide and Q"
 
With a thread title like this, it really should be in General Trek Discussion. If you wanted a thread saying "Neelix is the Worst Main Cast Character in All Star Trek", you should have simply done that.

My vote for worst main character is Chekov. It's nothing against Walter. But the character was created to appeal to youth at that time. I was a youth at that time (16) and considered Sulu the already existing youth character. My favorite character for that show though, was Kirk. I resented Chekov simply because he was an obvious attempt to pander to the youth market.

For Voyager though, I'd have to say the worst character was Kes. Again, it's nothing against Jennifer. But they created a character with a variety of unspecified mystical powers who kept getting more mystical powers, and they still couldn't figure out how to write her successfully even after 3 years. She was always the least interesting character for me.
 
Seven Of Nine sucks! She ruined Star Trek!!!

I am following her into Hell! :adore:

No one is bad or ruined a series we all love, through good + bad.
 
In my humble opinion, throughout the series:
TOS - Kirk
TNG - Wesley
DS9 - Started of disliking Bashir, but came to love him as much as the rest
VOY - 1st Neelix, 2nd Seven, 3rd Kim, 4th EMH, 5th Chakotay
ENT - Archer
