Lol yeah, I was being a bit cheeky about The Doctor and included some stuff that should have been true but went directly against how it worked out in Voyager. :)
Oh, heh, my bad. There’s a lot of people who don’t seem to watch/like voyager, so wasn’t sure if you’d seen it. Very convincing. 10/10.
Yeah I don't get it since Voyager is my favorite one, though it is pretty close and I haven't yet seen any more recent than Enterprise (other than some of the movies) and haven't finished my DS9 watch-through.
Voyager certainly has some great bits in it, but for me I think it's just that TNG is quintessential Star Trek and DS9 does something very different pretty well. Voyager doesn't feel like it has enough of a distinct voice to differentiate it from comparisons to TNG.
I think what sets it apart for me is that it isn't as heavy with the Starfleet authority structure. And I can't think of any recurring annoying characters (like Troy's mother, who could read minds but still stomped all over everyone's boundaries). Voyager is Star Trek but without Starfleet and with less political stuff.
I think that's what I liked about Enterprise, too. Both of them are more... wild and unknown.
