Enterprise, for all its foibles (like T'Pol's relationship garbage and some arcs that vanished unresolved), had the general mood of exploration and aggression only as a final resort.
Him on DS9 is kinda' like Riker on TNG, in that while the character got some good episodes, the actor simply doesn't have the chops to make me feel it all the way.
It's true the setting of a space station sucked, but the problem with DS9's story wasn't that it was arc-based, but that it made all the factions behave like OoC idiots. Why did the Federation continue keeping the wormhole open and trespassing beyond it after they'd discovered a technologically superior and highly belligerent power owned the other quadrant? Why did everyone put up with the Klingons starting shit with the Cardassians? By show's end, the entire setting had been permanently marred with edgy trash. At least Voyager (Borg aside) had the decency to mostly confine its stupidity to another quadrant.
Also, for all the supposed depth of the series, it never seemed willing to go all the way with character development. For instance, In The Pale Moonlight is an overhyped episode where Sisko doesn't even really do anything naughty except stand by with his thumb in his mouth while Garak does all the dirty work, and Dukat becomes cartoonishly villainous as the series progresses.
Similarly to O'Brian, my problem with Sisko is that his actor doesn't seem emotional enough to fit the character. I like his stentorian theatrical demeanor, but he just feels too stiff.

Sisko was played by an actor with brain problems who talked in a weird way when he was "acting!". I liked how he was written though.

Are you sure you're not mixing him up with the insane guy from Babylon 5? What's wrong with Avery Brooks' mental state besides being a devout christian?
Henry Lee
If you've ever seen an interview with the guy, he is fucking weird.
Maybe he just does it to screw around with interviewers, but he's odd.
Daniel Adams
He does that to fuck with people

I've watched TOS (10/10), TNG (7/10), DS9 (5/10), ENT (8/10), BSG Remake (4/10), Firefly (6/10), Blake's 7 (7/10), Space: Above and Beyond (8/10) and B5 (9/10). So I'm considering watching voyager after giving up on it on my last attempt. Is it entertaining enough to sit through or should I just watch something else instead? Is there even another decent science fiction series that I haven't watched?

i tried to get into it but it was nothing but religious debates, with the writers imply heavily that muh religion matters more than science in a science fiction show when it wasn't that, it was oy vey muh space shoah when i want to watch sci fi i want sci fi not the religious/genocide complaint department
plus its on a space station and not a ship
at least voyager was on a ship, and the hologram doctor n seven of nein weren't bad and they weren't debating whether the space jews need 200% more reparations or 100% more reparations due to the latest religious debate that incited the black dude to have some flashbacks to stuff they ripped out of babylon 5

I think Voyager would be a perfect complement to your already shit taste

You think I rated Firefly too high? It might have been SJW shit but it was fairly entertaining, never became a slog like some series.
I rated DS9 so low because I watched it after B5 and it was just so underwhelming. I think I would have liked it more if I didn't know there was a much better series with the same premise.
Also forgot to mention that I liked Farscape a lot.
