Sorry, but I just don't think the writing was terrible. There were some awful episode, but no more than any other Trek show. Everything I've seen people point to as "terrible writing" has been something entirely subjective that they personally dislike but to me has been something good about Voyager (for example, Janeway being both maternal with her crew and a more traditional military-like captain in her interactions with other races sometimes when the situation called for it does not strike me as inconsistent characterization but says to me that Janeway is complex and can be the type of captain a particular situation calls for).

OK.

I think Janeway was maternal only in the Joan Crawford sense....

[(Anonymous)]

How do you mean? The actress, sure. But the character?

[(Anonymous)]

The character is maternal in the sense that she is literally a mother, but she abandoned her alien lizard babies so I'm not sure if that's a point in her favor.

[(Anonymous)]

But she mothers her crew. She captains them in a way that is explicitly maternal and different from the way the previous captains had been.

[(Anonymous)]

How badly did your relationship with your own maternal figures go that you think Janeway mothers her crew?

Also, even if you're right (which is highly subjective), in what universe is a boss treating their crew like children in need of raising a good or healthy thing anyway?

Also, none of this negates the fact that Janeway abandoned her children in a swamp.

same. the writing might not have been pulitzer-worthy but it was just right for a risk-taking entry in a popular scifi franchise. occasionally bad, occasionally brilliant, most of the time entertaining and more than anything we want entertaining.
