he is the worst regular in all of the treks I have seen (TOS/TNG/DS9/VOY/ENT)

his whole thing is representing White american baby boomer dudes

boring as shit

doesn't belong in space

Torres can do so much better.

I don't believe this shit about being such a hot shot pilot.

I think he was sent by the CIA.

    Paris isn't even subtly or subjectively boomer. He's clearly intentionally written to be a guy in the 1950s.

    you're right he is too old to be a boomer himself. But like he is there for the boomers. To represent an old kind of masculinity and nostalgia.

    Just one day they were secretly in love?

    Well actually there was the ep where the invisible aliens were doing experiments on everyone. At the end the 2 of them are discussing how their whole thing could have been mind control from those aliens. Then they kiss and its the end of the ep.
