10 Dumbest Things In Star Trek: Voyager

Classically up there amongst the Dumbest and therefore one that is inevitable on this list. Let's deal with it now.

The concept of Threshold and the potential to hit warp 10 and be everywhere in the universe is mind-bending. Full of potential for storytelling and the epic of Voyager's return to Earth, it could have been an early turning point, even tying back to TNG's Where No One Has Gone Before.

Instead Tom Paris and Kathryn Janeway mutated into lizards and did the business. There's no other way to put it frankly because that's just how silly it sounds. The fact that it's summarily swept under the carpet and never mentioned again is a silence that speaks volumes. What may have seemed a good idea on paper should have resulted in at least some fall out yet there isn't even a concern for the offspring of said relationship. At least Lower Decks nodded that one of them potentially survived in Much Ado About Boimler although they weren't fairing very well.

The "we fixed them" ending which again avoids any explanation of how the captain and helmsman are returned to human form is an insult to the intelligence of the audience. That even involved reattaching Tom's tongue which must have been lying around the ship somewhere. The only time there's been a quicker mop up was Scotty transporting the Tribbles to the Klingons.
