I think there's a lot of good in Voyager. They had a hell of a time overcoming a very shaky first season (which you can see in the last four episodes of that year, including your personal favourite "The 37s").
Season 2 has a lot of good stuff, and every year they managed to knock out four or five really decent episodes.
But yes, a show that completely failed to tackle its own premise - mainly I think because they developed a premise that was a bit darker and more cynical like Deep Space Nine, and then decided it needed to be bright and idealistic like The Next Generation.
