True, but the feeling is that in general Voyager was hard to watch.
I rewatched TNG and DS9 several times from start to finish and almost skipped no episodes (though in later rewatches of DS9 I'm skipping the alternate universe ones since I can't bear them). I tried rewatching VOY and I just can't. Sure I can rewatch some of the awesome episodes from the show, but I can't watch it from start to finish since I find most episodes to be cringey (even if I like most of the actors and their characters, but something doesn't work when watching entire episodes).
Unrelated: I watched DIS until it was on Netflix (and deemed it an action TV series that's got nothing to do with Star Trek) and watched only a few episodes of PIC until it turned into the "fellowship of the ring" with the introduction of a sword wielding elf. Should I squeeze my nose and dive into it again and try to finish it?
I'll watch SNW as soon as I can. Still haven't gotten around it
TNG I would skip most of Season 1 and probably a decent chunk of Season 2 on a rewatch.
VOY episodes just leave you with nothing. Sure, stuff happened, but... you feel like it doesn't matter. It's sad because they had the chance to really make something cool, 5-year-exploration missions pale in comparison to travelling back from the other side of the galaxy.
You can watch the last season of PIC, it's essentially a noir-action show in a scifi setting, but.... WATCH SNW NOW!
