Mirror universe Janeway probably has a head full of box braids and wears vintage thrift with workboots.

Hi, I've come to apply for the doctor's job. I can assure you my credentials are top-notch, I've just graduated from Harvard College Yale. I aced every semester, and I got an 'A'.
Also she has a cat not a dog and instead of being all into science and poo poo, she's better known as Vedek Janeway Kathryn and has really really good hair

The mirror universe is the worst version of EVERYONE in the entire universe.
Except for Miles O'Brien.
It's his perfect universe.

Mirror universe Janeway was captain of the starship that brought Star Trek mainstream and boosted it's popularity to new unseen before heights that made people view TNG in the same way that TOS is viewed today.

Pretty universally loved by both fans and critics, it broke boundaries and set an ever high bar for the next series to attempt to beat and would forever be seen as a high point of star trek.


Just kidding, not even in infinite alternative dimensions was Voyager ever that good.

Pretty good

Well there are infinite universes so anything that can happen does happen somewhere, so technically you can have a bizarro evil Federation universe where a guy was born looking like Vic Fontaine and called Vic Fontaine.

Its best not to think about it though, otherwise you're going to wonder why all the main characters are in the exact same jobs in the evil universe, despite the fact the terrain empire doesn't promote people for the same reasons the Federation does.

And inaccurate. It's like four generations later. The Next Generation should have been a ship crewed by half-alien Kirk offspring.

So who was that morose long-faced alien dude at the bar in many of the Star Trek films?

He was a hundred thousand years old, he had gotten drunk in every bar in the Universe, and he knew every joke that had ever been told?
Now that's dedication to a goal.

The ultimate Charles Bukowski.

E: even the Spoonhead and the Elephant.

Nah, he has a big bloody scorch mark in his chest. He's also a random dual-pistol wielding bad rear end, and no further explanation is given for his presence, it is wonderful.

Evil Kira is great but goddamn somebody needs to just SHOOT her now. How many times does she walk past the heroes with a gun, there's a standoff, and then somebody lets her go? I mean, seriously people!

In the Pale Moonlight and The Visitor are probably my two favorite non-ferengi episodes (of which all are amazing).

I do have to say though that Neelix makes a pretty good Proxy of the Nagus, though.
