When ‘Star’ Fans Collide
- Share via
Scott Williams’ commentary on “Star Trek: Voyager” (TV Times June 11) was a masterpiece of contradictions. Complaining about a lack of rebellion among the crew, he also complains when an officer disobeys the captain. To expect more than a “halfhearted mutinous conspiracy” is (dare I say) illogical since the crew must congeal to get home.
To say Kate Mulgrew as the captain “seems unmindful of her dire tactical and logistical plight” is to show lack of attention. She puts on a brave face for her crew, which is her duty, showing us how mindful she really is when she is alone.
To call the crew “cardboard cutouts” is to ignore the episodes exploring the depth of characters such as Torres, Neelix, as well as the doctor.
Apparently, Mr. Williams chose to ignore a lot.
