* TheAlledgedCar: The cutting edge of Starfleet technology - painful and dangerous to the touch. It's held together with "semen and wet bits". Eventually it gets to the point that Chuck wonders if it was made just to fulfil an election promise.

* PlaceWorseThanDeath: In "Demon", Harry has to be chided to stop farting around on the Class-Y planet and return with the Away Team. "Yep. A planet that combines an oven with a gas chamber is preferable than going back to the hell that is ''Voyager''."

** "She's not an atheist, though. She knows there's a God, and it's her."

* TheNeidermeyer: His take on Janeway is that she's ''actively'' trying to kill her crew. Some of her motives include [[ItAmusedMe boredom]], [[HuntingTheMostDangerousGame sport]], or simply because she has hankering for the [[TheFunInFuneral nachos served at their funerals]].

--->'''Janeway''': Welcome to Katrine's, here's your [[PipePain pipe]], sir! Let me show you the house wine, it's a Gewehr 98/40; very fine vintage!

--> '''Janeway''': You're not the boss of me!

-->''(going down the list)'' "Did I help the Borg assimilate your people, uhh, did Vidians I let escape murder your loved ones, or should I just mark this one down as miscellaneous?"

** In "Year of Hell", Janeway, who is a little more unstable than usual, consults these for advice. However, given the fact she's....well Janeway, she instead has a "Shoulder Devil" (whom she immediately dismisses due to her contempt for religion) "Shoulder Atom" (who suggests she sacrifices herself to take down her enemy), and "Shoulder Cowboy" (Who has no idea what's happening and just [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere wants out of there]]).

--> '''1996!Janeway''': The past is the future, the future is the past, it all gives me a headache.\\

'''1995!Janeway''': [''Smugly''] No, but that's ok.

** ''[[Series/StarTrekDiscovery Discovery's]]'' "Vaulting Ambition" retroactively makes a fairly solid case that "our" Janeway really ''is'' from the Mirror Universe. Given the above, it would seem that the two Janeways somehow switched places prior to "Caretaker;" leaving the Mirror Universe stuck with the annoying GranolaGirl, and the prime universe stuck with the insane, {{ax-crazy}}, genocidal tyrant.

* [[MeanCharacterNiceActor Awful Character, Good Actor]]: For all the hate that Chuck lumps on Neelix, he does make sure to point out from time to time that Ethan Phillips, the actor who plays Neelix, is actually a pretty good actor and that it wasn't his fault that the script had his character written as a shithead.

* TheBore: "Have I ever told you about how a man does not own land?"

* FlatCharacter: In the "The Killing Game", lampshades the reason Harry was not involved in the main plot was because even the writers of the episode [[WordOfGod admitted]] to finding him so boring, they didn't want to deal with him. They ended up only expanded his subplot because [[DamnedByFaintPraise the episode ran short]].

They ended up only expanded his subplot because [[DamnedByFaintPraise the episode ran short]].
** OOCIsSeriousBusiness: Notes that the writer's of Voyager later realised that when Harry actually grows a pair, he becomes a more interesting character ("The Killing Game"), but unfortunately, they decided to only have this occur in time travel plots which end with a ResetButton ("Timeless").

* HoistbyHisOwnPetard[=/=]ReversePsychology: In "Homestead", the crew reaches a silent understanding and bands together to dump Neelix on an inhospitable asteroid, playing off his one weakness: lust for power. Kim and Chakotay puff up his credentials, Tuvok points out the need for [[WarriorPrince a strong "leader" in an an "ancient conflict"]], and Janeway waives the Prime Directive since Neelix [[RulesLawyer isn't part of Starfleet and can thus ignore it]].
-->'''Janeway''': Rules are like bones: they're meant to be broken...''by me.''

** Even his psycho Janeway apologizes for making Picard lose what little hair he had left.

* BiggerBad:
** Outside of the ''Voyager'' reviews, Janeway is portrayed as the omnipresent, over-arching villain of the entire franchise, being a more significant outside evil even in series and movies she has no role or barely appears in. She's held responsible for everything from [[Film/StarTrekNemesis Shinzon]] to [[Series/StarTrekTheNextGeneration Lore]] (she previously worked as Dr. Soong's code monkey), while Picard's kill-crazy behavior in the TNG movies is explained by Janeway spiking his Earl Grey with testosterone. That's not including the ''X-Files'' connection; Janeway reminisces about dating [[Recap/TheXFilesS01E03Squeeze Tooms]] in one episode.
** She is implied to be behind the Crystalline Entity, having apparently given the souls of the people it killed to the Devil in exchange for becoming a starship Captain.
** Her actions even resonate into other series, such as Natira from ''Series/{{Farscape}}'' being one of Janeway's army of warrior cobalt tarantulas. Eek.

* SpottingTheThread: During the "Unreality Month", jokes that the litmus test for whether the story is taking place in reality or not, tends to be how lifelike Chakotay is acting. ("Waking Moments", "Human Error", "Worst Case Scenario", "Tinker, Tenor, Doctor, Spy") And something is especially wrong if he passes on an opportunity to tell one of his people's boring stories. ("Bliss")

-->'''Tom:''' If Betty Grable came around that corner, what part of her would you be staring at?\\

* [[ClingyJealousGirl Clingy Jealous Guy]]: Becomes insane with jealousy at any man who so much as ''looks'' at Kes, to the point of stalking her throughout the ship ("Parturition"). While his jealousy of [[TheCharmer ladies man]] Tom Paris is somewhat justifiable, the same can't be said of his jealousy towards the Doctor, a hologram who initially lacked any ''[[BarbieDollAnatomy genitalia]]'' altogether! ("Elogium")

** He turned Janeway's dining room into a "galley" without permission and appointed himself "chief morale officer." (The crew only eats his toxic slop because there is no other option.) He's ignorant of basic nutritional needs, and even lacks rudimentary cooking skills since he believes higher temperatures equals faster cooking time.

** He was even once outsmarted by the ''three'' year old Naomi, proving that even small children are more competent than Harry Kim, and that Janeway's plan to groom Naomi into her [[{{Tykebomb}} loyal minion]] is proceeding ''exceptionally'' well ("Bliss").
* DepravedBisexual:

* WarForFunAndProfit: In ''Star Trek: Nemesis'', Janeway asides that she personally installed Shinzon as the Romulan Praetor and scattered Lore's remains for him to find, all in preparation for staging a war between the Romulans and Starfleet. The end result would leave the Alpha Quadrant Empire in tatters, turning it into a vehicle for promoting Janeway's [[ForTheEvulz personal brand]] throughout the known universe. Presumably, this was narrowly avoided by Picard's crew, but Vice Admiral Janeway remains at large. (Though "The Omega Directive" jokingly suggests that [[Series/OrangeIsTheNewBlack she was exiled to a 21st century Litchfield prison]].)
