Summary
Problematic faves! Anika and a sliiiiiiiiiiightly hungover (yet award-winning) Liz discuss the characters we love, but can't entirely recommend without a caveat. Or many caveats. But first -- we have to define terms. How do you narrow it down when literally every single work of fiction, along with every single human who ever existed, is imperfect? Discussed: Yeoman Tonia Barrows of "Shore Leave" (TOS) Captain Kathryn Janeway of THE ENTIRE SERIES OF VOYAGER have you heard of her? T'Pring of of "Amok Time" (TOS) and Valeris of Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country Gul Dukat of DS9 (the ultimate Problematic Fave Who Thinks He Is A Cinnamon Roll) Seska of Voyager L'Rell of Discovery And along the way, we talk about fandom's attitudes towards characters who do terrible things or represent terrible ideas, fan fiction as a safe place to explore ideas which don't have a place in canon, and more!
