My headcanon is that the episode where he gets replaced with a parallel universe version of himself is actually a regular occurrence on Voyager, and that he never gets promoted because every episode we’re technically seeing a different Harry and it’s his first week on the job
where did you find this from? lol
I said, ‘This is ridiculous. I haven’t been promoted yet. I’ve done all these things for the crew. I’ve helped save the day a few times.’ And Kate was like, ‘I know, I know.’ So she was sympathetic, but silly me, I was so desperate. I went to the actress playing the role of captain to try to get promoted.
lol, so method he forgot about the writer’s room
To be fair, he was better off asking her than the writers.

Jesus fuck this got me, because I can legitimately see Harry doing this in the show. Like asking Chakotay for a promotion or something, forgetting he’s Maquis.
the writers also forget he’s Maquis
Rick Berman resented the young actor who had his own ideas for his character and wanted to collaborate on what Harry’s arc would look like, and as a result Garrett got sidelined probably the soonest and harshest of any of the rest of the cast (besides Kes who was written out for several reasons).
they were going to fire of both jennifer lien and garrat wang; but wang was nominated as a magazine’s sexiest men list and it saved his tenure.
That story is apocryphal to the best of my knowledge. The biggest factor was that Jennifer Lien was struggling with some severe mental health situation and was struggling through the grind of TV production by self-medicating. Combine that with sagging ratings, the writers’ inability to figure out what to do with her character, and the inclusion of Jeri Ryan in season 4 as the new sexy character and her removal from the show was all but inevitable. It breaks my heart because Kes deserved better.
Fuck Rick Berman.
(I should make that my tagline.)
Always the correct stance!
Imagine begging a murderer for a promotion. Rest in power, Tuvix
I get why people latch on to Tuvix as a demonstration of Janeway at her worst, but honestly that’s nothing. Like, she helped the Borg in assimilating another species just to shave a few years off the journey home.
I can’t think of a more direct sort of murder than Tuvix but I bet it’s damn near impossible for a Star Trek captain to avoid getting blood on their hands.
I like Newbie Star Trek’s take on Capt. Picard in Galaxy’s Child.

He played the Chinese guy, right?
I met him once at a comiccon, he’s a really good dude.
