Am I the only one who appreciates Ethan Phillips and acting the way he was written?
I'm not a fan of Neelix, but I don't think what was wrong with him was necessarily Ethan Phillips' fault.
He was in a short lived show called Avenue 5 which I can only describe as "The Love Boat" in space. And he was hilarious! https://youtu.be/CUVFAgwdfEQ
Avenue 5 was taken from us too soon. I'm just glad that we got to see douchey-Josh-Gad sorta reprise his role in Wonder Man.
He was also briefly in the Alec Baldwin film The Shadow. I was rewatching it recently and was like "No, Neelix! Don't do it!"
