I'm almost done with season 3 on my first watch of DS9. At the moment I think the best character is Nog. I'm rooting for him to get into Star Fleet Academy. I'm pumped for Worf joining the show next season. Spacebump fucked around with this message at 07:41 on May 7, 2019 |

i like worf as a character but man, he just never stops loving up and pissing people off. i really wish at some point in ds9 they made him competent, but nope, nothing but failing missions and insulting people that try to help him

Seeing Michael Dorn play someone competent in that excellent 50s sci fi writer episode was very jarring but appreciated.

Farmer Crack-rear end posted:They blew a huge amount of money on the Baku village and all that location shooting. Good thinking, I definitely cared the most about the lovely town in my sci-fi space epic. Two things Star Trek movies are enormously bad at: budgeting and keeping the cast from running the show.

DS9 Worf gets to do a lot of Klingon stuff and is generally on the giving end of rear end kickings far more often than in TNG but all of that is brought down somewhat by his persistent whining and arrogance, and it's downright cringy the way he treats Jadzia and later Ezri. But overall I'd say DS9 Worf is way more bad rear end considering he loving murders Gowron and becomes chancellor, only to give the title to Martok like a boss (spoilered for the benefit of the guy watching for the first time). Most of his incompetent bullshit behavior is early on when it's clear he's adapting to being on a station instead of a squeaky clean and airtight starship and I kind of like the initial tension between him and Odo.

The rest of the DS9 crew actually take Worf seriously unlike the guys back on the D, so it goes to his head and all his rear end in a top hat ways come pouring out.

I think it's probably a pretty safe bet to say he was always an rear end in a top hat (see any Alexander episodes) and he just spent too much time on his rear end to talk much.

I cannot defeat him, I can only kill him is such a badass line and is spoken about Worf by a total badass so DS9 Worf is definitely a badass, even if he is bad and an rear end

Chancellor Gowron staring down from a ten-foot-high black stone sphere with hundreds of rusted steel balls jutting in all directions like the Throne of Swords (but balls) They already use a big stone sphere instead of a sensible gavel for court proceedings, why not go nuts?

Nog, and the Ferengi in DS9 are great in general. It's real jarring to go from the end of DS9 Ferengi back to TNG season 1 Ferengi.

CBS is committing even further to Star Trek as a brand https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/live-feed/star-trek-franchise-expands-dedicated-cbs-studios-group-1207664 quote:The studio, which has multiple Trek TV series running or in the works, is launching a new business unit to expand the Star Trek brand beyond TV and streaming. The new group will be headed by CBS Studios executive Veronica Hart, who will now have the title of executive vp Star Trek global franchise management. I know this doesn't mean they care about DS9 any more than before, but it helps keep hope alive that some middle manager in this whole thing is a fan and figures out a way to sell upper management on a remaster.

It's hard not to view that as a purely financial move rather than anyone anywhere caring about the IP. They own The Other Sci-Fi Series and Star Wars is printing money hand over fist so obviously it's time for sci-fi investments and lol Stargate. I guess more importantly it's hard not to be sad that something that was so fundamental in my life - even if it was then too - is now just a bottom line.

None of it is going to mean poo poo unless Viacom and CBS make up and merge again. Studios can't survive without coordinated cross platform universes now.

They can monetize Star Trek even better if they want to, they just want to monetize it in an extremely specific way where I don't think they're competitive.

Maybe they'll make "Twitch Plays Star Trek," where you can donate bits to switch the scene to something else or alter the plot. *Dr. Crusher slapping Wesley plays on a loop forever*
