Honestly I liked the vibe of Voyager. They basically went on idiotic side quests because it seemed like it would be cool.

I feel like a ton of episodes opened with one character pointing out this wasn't their business and didn't help them in any way, another character just going "...but we're explorers", and then Voyager getting into some weird shit.

A huge part of why I love Star Trek is because the galaxy seems vast and mysterious, with the Federation only truly understanding a small part of it. Voyager was the king of that shit. There are a ton of Voyager episodes that give us a glimpse into characters and concepts that could be their own series. It really made them feel like drops in a vast ocean.

own series

Like the time Paris and Janeway devolved into lizards and had freaky lizard sex.

I was thinking more the fight club with the rock or the dinosaur aliens, but sure.

Give me a Tuvix spin-off where he hosts family feud already.
