Chataeya 0 Posted May 9, 2003 I'm just back on the internet, been down for about a year now. I finely find a website for Chakotay/Robert Beltran and i can't get on it. I Love the mans work and his acting. I did wish to follow his career. But I've come to find out his website is shut down. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nascarfan1 0 Posted May 11, 2003 I have to admit Beltran found his character of Chakotay in the first year along with Robert Duncan McNeill, Garrett Wang. Others struggled for a couple of seasons, but once they hit their stride the whole ensemble ran like a well oiled machine. My vote though goes to Tim Russ...

Sam The Smuggler 1 Posted May 12, 2003 Yeah, He's Cool I always hoped that him and Janeway would Hook up though...and that Seven would instead Hook up with Kim..but no.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Indy 8 Posted May 12, 2003 This is just an opinion, but I kinda think Robert Beltran upset a lot of Trek fans when he started complaining about Voyager all the time. I still enjoy his character Chakotay, but can't help but think that he should be a bit more grateful for what Trek has done for him, rather than obsess about the negative. I also would like to have seen him with Janeway, rather than hook up with Seven at the last minute. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dsbs 0 Posted May 12, 2003 I too, wished Chakotay had ended up with Janeway seven COULD have gone with Harry (I must admit I never even thought about that) but i thought her and the Doctor would have gone well together! And I always thought Harry would go back to Libby....she DID say she'd wait for him Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ddillard 2 Posted May 12, 2003 I liked the Chakotay character, he was always strong and he adapted to the situation very quickly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
~Crims~ 0 Posted May 12, 2003 I really liked Chakotay. I actually would have liked to have seen the writers make more use of him. I really liked Seven too, but once she came aboard, some characters suffered to a certain extent, one of them being Chakotay. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And I always thought Harry would go back to Libby....she DID say she'd wait for him And Harry also was very eager to get a girl, how many did he go after? But yeah, the doc would have understood her better. Didn't they do almost the same thing with Riker, Deanna Troi and Worf that they're doing with Janeway, Chakotay and Seven? Maybe we'll get a movie that will straighten this out....*hopes* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Makurosu 0 Posted May 13, 2003 Chakotay was one of the better, but underused characters on Voyager. Too bad he got shoved into the background so often. It's also too bad that nothing was ever developed between Chakotay and Janeway. I never really liked Chakotay/Seven. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
prometheus 0 Posted May 14, 2003 I didnt really warm to him. He became too integrated into Voyager for my liking. He didnt look or behave like an ex-maquis enough. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I also wish they had use Chakotay more often. Seven ended up being used to much. (I am a female, Boys. So yes I wanted more CHAKOTAY.) A Chakotay/Janeway relationship would have worked much better. He cared for her very much, so this would have worked. :blink: MORE CHAKOTAY!!!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Jean-Luc Picard 1 Posted May 17, 2003 I too liked Chakotay! It's a shame that he was so neglected durring the 6th season. Anyway, I agreed with some of the things he said about Voyager like how Chakotay & Seven were thrust together without a back story or anything. However, I also agree with the fans that he could have used constructive critisism. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KayTroi 0 Posted May 18, 2003 I am new here. I am Ensign KayTroi;I am a big fan of Robert Beltran, formally Cmdr. Chakotay of Star Trek Voyager. I enjoyed his work on the show. I also think he is a cutie. The last show that I saw him on was CSI MIAMI. Other than the show mentioned above I have not seen him in any thing else. If you here anything else about this sexy hunk, please let me know. thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

One of the reasons I liked Chakotay was because the type of personality and overall character traits he possessed were very different from almost all other Star Trek characters. With most characters you can make, at the very least, subtle comparisions but Chakotay was very originial in this sense in my opinion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The man himself is a great actor. He, in my opinion was the best choice for that roll. His acting ablity is endless and he did the part of Chakotay to the best of his ablities. They needed to use him more. But the show is over and there will be no more new shows as far as Voyager is concerned. I hear tales of a move but never a conformation about it. :P I still want more. Sorry just can't seem to stop the want for VOYAGER. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sorry just can't seem to stop the want for VOYAGER. Yup, I agree. If someone ever came to him for advice or if he felt someone was acting in an inappropiate manner, he would not come straight out and tell them. He would give advice and lectures in a way that it made the person think, and then they would come to the right decision themselves. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chataeya 0 Posted May 26, 2003 He does know how to make a person stop and think ( Chakotay that is ) I wonder sometimes though, if Beltran is like his character or is the character a part of Beltran? There's a good question. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But you've gotta stop drooling over the poor guy, he's wet enough as it is, with all these women that are out there on the internet. He may not like it to much, but then who am I to say what he likes or dislikes. It would be nice if he could speak up for himself, here. I do know that are board caretakers would keep the trash off. He might enjoy himself here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Syperphobia 0 Posted May 31, 2003 I like Chakotay, but I did find him being annoying questioning Janeway. I am unsure if he did it becuase she was a woman captain, against starfleet, or just doing his job. He did make good points and made Janeway rethink her actions, but it just seemed over done.

jdigs 0 Posted June 10, 2003 Wasn't a big fan of the captain-1st officer realtionship...call me old fashioned but it just never suit me, but I enjoyed his character when he wasn't agreeing with everything Admiral Janeway said or did. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
starsinmyeyes 0 Posted June 12, 2003 I like Chakotay's character as well. Would like to have seen more development of his character and story arcs involving him as the central character. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
