I think Harry Kim is the most boring character on Voyager. He just doesn't seem to have any personality at all.

His personallity is being a submissive Ensign on the Bridge for releif. I mean why does one have an officer that is fresh out of the Acadmy on Ops? I think his character should have been at least a Lt. Jr.

Yeah, it's like I said earlier, you have to try and understand why a character acts the way he does. But he could have been given a little bit of a personality.

Well his personality was being shy and getting in trouble with women. I swear, he had what 4 crushes in the Delta Quadrant. Twins, A hologram, 7 of 9. He was quite a lonely man... I feel for him...
You of all people would relate to him... lol

Sure, I can understand him, but that doesn't make him any less boring. Most shows like this revolve around three or four characters, and the rest just kind of sit in the background, but still.... Look at Neelix -- he's a background player too, but at least he has a personality!

Well it is possible that the blandness is his character, boring, that is what his is.

Even TUVOK has more personality than Harry Kim!

I despised Neelix...I didn't warm to him at all! I didn't really like Chakotay either...

Oh and a tidbit of Vorik info for you Beckett, in the books Vorik is promoted and goes on to become Voyager's Cheif engineer.

I despised Neelix...I didn't warm to him at all! I don't know, what little I saw of him, I sort of liked Neelix. But again he was sort of a background character.

I always thought he would become Chief Engineer...Thanks for telling me:D *secretly makes note to read more Star Trek literature* And about Harry Kim...he's a bit of a non-entity isn't he? I'm not actually sure if he has a personality

It's a shame really, they could have done so much with the character of Harry Kim, but they just didn't develop him enough. He's just the boring friend of Tom Paris who whinges to much and has unnecessary rendezvous with alien women.
They spent to much time on Neelix (whom I would have been happy to see out of it after the first series).

I know, and he wasn't that good for comic relief either... he was kinda a loophole, so they could have him work on challenging things while leaving the rest of the main cast open for other things...
