* In his third 'phase' of VOY reviews -- the others comprising his early [=YouTube=] videos and the re-uploads tailored to Chuck's interpretation of Janeway as a cosmic fascis--he's begun to go easy on the VOY crew. In "Workforce Pt. II", he reminds viewers that "Evil" Janeway is but ''one'' of two interpretations of Janeway's character, and takes a minute to soliloquize on the scope of Janeway's plight:
-->"People have their limits, period. Picard had his in 'Family', or Sisko had his in 'Emissary'. Given the choice between watching your crew die one after the other--year after year--with home still decades away and [[HurtingHero a self-imposed isolation]], or thinking that she could've resigned and taken a job on Earth with a husband and a pile of dogs, well... There's a lot of days where the former makes the latter look pretty damn good."

** In that same review, he takes time to clarify that he is not prejudiced against Southern people, nor does he have any beef with Connor Trinneer's acting chops, and is instead poking fun at the fact that Tucker, while supposedly an engineering genius, often acts in stereotypical ways that undermine attempts to have him taken seriously.
