Jeri Ryan Speaks About Her Intentionally Unpleasant Experiences on the STAR TREK VOYAGER Set. For nearly two decades, the Star Trek rumor mill has been swirling about the supposed feud between Voyager co stars Jeri Ryan and Kate Mulgrew, stemming from Mulgrews dislike of the addition of Ryans former Borg character, Seven of Nine, to the show. A 2. 00. 6 interview with Garrett Wang contains some fairly harsh reports of the on set experience surrounding Ryans arrival to the show, but a recent interview on actress Aisha Tylers Girl on Guy podcast released last summer, but just pointed out to us by a reader this week has one of the first narratives of those years revealed by Jeri Ryan herself. Ryan does not specifically name Mulgrew as the source of her torment, but her description of the interaction, combined with the years of reports of discontent with this unnamed co star makes it nearly impossible to be anyone else. JERI RYAN The addition of this character Voyager was the flagship show of the network UPN and Paramount saw this as this character as their chance to break Star Trek into the mainstream media, and not just the sci fi mags and things like that. So the Paramount publicity machine went into overdrive with the addition of this character. AISHA TYLER What season was this RYAN This was the beginning of Season Four. Everything was top secret about the character.

They didnt want anybody to know anything about it until the day I walked on to set to shoot this which is a bunch of other stories Laughs It was crazy. They were very successful in getting the mainstream media to pay attention to it with the addition of the character. TYLER What were the other storiesIts so far in the pastRYAN It is so far in the past. Oh, god.  LaughsTYLER Pick the one that you feel comfortable sharing. RYAN It was understandably tough for an existing cast that had been together for three years already. Star Trek, traditionally because this was like the fourth incarnation of Star Trek at the time was always the Captain, or the Captain and First Officer.

So all of a sudden, all of that shifted drastically in Season Four and now the writers, who have been writing for the same seven characters for three years, are salivating for something new to write with.

RYAN Right, theres no better way to do that. Consequently, all the scripts revolved around Seven of Nine and her relationship with the other characters, of course which actually ended up leading to some really rich storylines for the other characters. TYLER There was probably more diversity in terms of storyline for everybody. RYAN Exactly but thats hard, when the new kid comes in and suddenly its all about them. That was tough, and it was particularly tough for some more than others, which was not real fun. It really made it an unpleasant work experience. TYLER Did that continue, or did evolve RYAN It continued, for quite a while. Game X Copy Activation on this page. I mean, for the most part, everybody was phenomenal and absolutely great  and the guys, my God, I loved my boys on that show. Laughs They were hilarious to the point that if I had a two shot with and then its my close up, I had to look off camera because if I looked at them Id just break and crack up. But yeah, it was unnecessarily unpleasant for a couple of years basically, until I started dating Brannon Braga. Once I was dating the boss, funny how things suddenly cleaned upLaughs But it was really, really tough the first couple of years. I was nauseous before going into work because it was that miserable. Just unnecessarily, intentionally unpleasant. Download Software Sam The Ultimate Mechanism Designer Free. TYLER And such a waste of energy. RYAN Waste of energy. TYLER I always feel like theres a strange intimacy on a set that makes difficult sets much more difficult that working at a difficult office because you can usually avoid the other personRYAN Right. Theres no avoidance on a set, and most of my scenes were with this person. TYLER Oh, god. RYAN I mean, there was NO avoidance, because it was the richest relationship. They really wanted to capitalize on that. TYLER Im not going to ask you Im sure people can deduce who it is if they spend some time Google ing. RYAN Right, yeah. TYLER I have had friends who have been in situations where they had a very close co star, sometimes their love interest, and they really did not like each other off camera. I know someone who went through this, and they were just not even on speaking terms, and they had to kiss on camera. How was that for you did you develop mental tricks Like, what did you doRYAN There was nothing I COULD do literally I would be nauseous when I knew these scenes were coming up. When there were a lot of scenes with this person the next day, I was sick to my stomach all night, just miserable. It was so unnecessary and just so petty things like, oh my GodLaughsWed have scenes because a lot of my scenes took place in this set they built for my character called the Astrometrics Lab. It was a really impressive looking set with this huge, massive, curved green screen and this giant window. So theres only one entrance to the set, because all the cameras were built up on platforms and stuff to shoot the window there was just one set of doors. I remember this one time in particular, I had this once scene with this person, just the two of us. We do their coverage first, and shoot their side of this really dramatic scene, and then it was time for my coverage. Before every close up, the hair and makeup and wardrobe teams come in and do touch ups and everything to make sure everythings right Laughs wildlyThe co star shut the door to the set, and said, Shes fine. LETS GO. Wouldnt let them in. Just stupid, stupid stuff like that. TYLER And by the way, out of their job description. RYAN Exactly. Let people do their jobs. TYLER Not your callRYAN Right, things like that. Another time, I dont even think it was the same day, but a different scene with that person on the same set we do their side first, and then its my coverage on close up for this really intense scene. The literally sat off camera picking their nails, thumbing through a book, and just haphazardly saying their lines off camera without even making eye contact. TYLER It would have been better to just not have them there. RYAN Yeah, could the assistant director just read it off camera Im good. TYLER Anyone A production assistant A C Stand and a tennis ball It would be better. RYAN Exactly It would have been better. It was intentional, purely intentional and unnecessary.
