    You can say a lot about seven but being a “damsel in distress” couldn’t be farther from fhe truth, she was the most badass of them all and in some episodes aliens tried taking advantage of her and failed miserably. She was mostly put there for nerds to drool over, but she was not a badly written character and even had a decent development

      I would say Jeri Ryan was also a very good actress, contrary to some peoples’ expectations.

      In the episode “Body And Soul”, the Doctor puts his consciousness inside of Seven. Jeri Ryan has to act like the Doctor, and she has to act like the Doctor poorly acting like Seven. I’d say she perfectly captures Robert Picardo’s mannerisms.

        I agree, she did great. But let’s not pretend she was put in her tight dress and heels for a plot point. But yeah, her sexiness was only a minor part of her reasonably complex character, so it was not that bad after all.
