Sir Pat's dad was hosed up from the war and beat his wife and kids, so Pat has been a longtime campaigner against domestic violence. I guess he finds boxing/MMA triggering or whatever. He's a good dude who means well.

Bajorans are useless fucks. Cardassians come and invade and all they do is march to the labor camps and cry. If an alien race tried to invade earth I guarantee we would nuke them and ourselves into oblivion.

if only the bajorans had had guns :911:

He was a real trouble maker in his youth but ever since that fight with the naussican he's a changed man

the Federation just needs a strong leader, ok?

deep in your squirmy hearts even you know it is uncouth to have an alien president ruling from Earth

I liked that the Federation president in that DS9 two parter was a turban wearing non human like alien. There totally was a underlying xenophobia to the crazy Admirals disdain for democracy I mean guys, that weird alien fella isn't even human no wonder he doesn't protect us or care about Earth like he should...

Starfleet should've started mass-producing cloaks the second Proud Warrior Race Guys pulled out of the Khitomer Accords. Guess what, assholes? That was literally your only advantage over the space commies.

Well, you're stupid. Either that or you're not giving it the loving chance it deserves. What poo poo have you watched and liked?

edit: You mentioned Farscape. DS9 is REALLY like Farscape in a lot of ways, especially character-wise. Yes, everyone pretty much an rear end in a top hat, but there's a lot of development that turns their crew into a family and the way the plot unfolds is terrific in each case. Truly two of the best series. Add Babylon 5 to that list, too. Hopefully you've seen that, because it's basically DS9 done with a much lower budget and with a ton of loving weird drug addicts and deafs and drunks and right-wing lunatics and a paranoid schizo all on the cast and it's awesome.

And then came Defiance after Farscape and it was awwwful. It turned the "town of assholes" premise to an artform, with no relationship between any cast member avoiding a good deep backstab per episode. It's possible to have enjoyablr unlikable characters, you just cant have an entire cast of them. Hell, I don't even think they ever outright succeed in a single episode at anything they tried, they all just failed upwards to the finale.

Watched Voyager again recently and I kind of liked it. It held up better than I thought. Kes annoys the poo poo out of me though.

Farscape is amazing and if you can't enjoy it what are you doing the trek GBS thread. Also as an enormous nerd I can definitively say the doubler episode in season 3 is where the show gets loving horrible and features Crichton cucking himself. Then along comes peacekeeper wars and daddy o'bannon writes off every character that came after the start of season 3, it was glorious.

I could never really get over Ocampians having big vaginas in their backs. Tho liked Kes's maternal relationship with Janeway and her advocate/mentor relationship with the Doc.

Season 3 went right down the shitter after Crichton got doubled, but Season 4 was legit good.

This is a correct and good statement. The ~~defense against the dark arts~~ psychic training camp was really good and had a lot of character development and also LUXAN HYPERRAGE!!!

Wrath of the Bitch King: May 11, 2005; Research confirms that black is a color like silver is a color, and that beyond black is clarity.

I don't remember what seasons are associated with what but the Scorpius in John's head stuff is great.

Especially later when he squishes him up like a basketball and throws him in a dumpster.

Pretty much anything with Scorpius is prime Farscape.

Edit: What was that show (I think from the early 90s) where there are aliens that live on Earth coexisting with humans and water kills them or something. They had leopard spots? I remember liking that show for being a weird detective/sci-fi mix-up.

Edit2: Alien Nation. Alien Nation owned.

so the first half of this episode was a ripoff of that TNG episode where Data has to knock everyone out to hide an alien race's existence

and then this happened

Season 4 had Crichton holding an entire Scarran Destroyer, and the Peacekeepers at-large hostage with a pair of hand-made nukes on his belt :allears:

The best part of Alien Nation was how they'd slam cut to that clip of the one dude flipping out in the car in the opening credits and it brings the whole thing to a grinding halt

TNG is awesome but that would still be better than 1/3 of TNG episodes.

The Federation not using cloaks is retarded. The tactical advantages of being invisible are self explanatory, then they experiment with pegasus and can move through solid matter as well as being invisible. So all the Federation needs to do is make a huge, invisible bomb that passes through matter and stick it in the core of every planet not in the Federation.
There you have it, no more problems from the Romulans, no more problems from odos lovely race and no more problems from the borg.

Yeah but when it comes down to it, would you rather spend your life on a starship waiting to be sucked into the cold vacuum of space or would you rather spend the rest of your days being sucked off by holo Jenna Jameson.

Seems like an easy choice to me.
