        Thankfully seven was a pretty awesome character in addition to being sexy. Except in the later seasons where she was singing or wearing a dress every other episode. That was a bit much.

          She was a useless character, making the borg completely absurd and ridiculous (sex suits instead of armour? High heels?), all to just put her in stupid situations where she just is a “damsel in distress” even though she’s supposed to be an augmented human.

          I don’t have a lot of problems with Voyager as a show, but Seven is quite obviously at the top.

            You can say a lot about seven but being a “damsel in distress” couldn’t be farther from fhe truth, she was the most badass of them all and in some episodes aliens tried taking advantage of her and failed miserably. She was mostly put there for nerds to drool over, but she was not a badly written character and even had a decent development

      It works for me because Mulgrew really didn’t like Jeri Ryan at first, so throwing someone out the window for even suggesting a sexy new character makes sense.

      (For anyone who hadn’t heard this before, it turned out fine. Mulgrew and Ryan were friends by the time the show ended.)

      Was going to say this meme is being used the wrong way around. It should be Rick Berman suggesting sexy Borg and Moore suggesting actually capitalising on the concept of the show then being yeeted.

        In the meme, it’s Janeway (Kate Mulgrew) who is throwing the guy with the idea out. She didn’t want 7of9 added as a new character. She failed to stop it, hence the title.
