I'm halfway through Season 7 of DS9. Wow, Ronald D. Moore tried his best to ruin the show with his lovely romance and new age bullshit, didn't he? It's great that Damar and Kai Win can carry the show, but they shouldn't have to. I've been wanting to watch the show with my Grandfather who was something of a TNG fan, but we'll never have enough time to watch every episode of every season. Is there something like an Abridged Deep Space 9 list of episodes that include the important plot points and character arcs + only the good bottle episodes?

Blazing Ownager posted:...and second, the actress playing Ezri trying to act like a badass was the most embarrassing thing on the whole show. Getting your rear end kicked by her is like getting your rear end kicked by Justin Beiber trying to impersonate a Chipmunk. That actress was really, really bad all the time though: She consistently came off as "I bet this is a nice person who has no idea what the gently caress is going on in this sci-fi show and is confused as all hell." She never stopped pouting. God, it was like if Whedon wrote a character for the show. Just awful.

I just finished Voice in the Wilderness Part 2. Up until now I've been willing to forgive Babylon 5 for all of its flaws, but something about this episode really rubbed me the wrong way. For one thing, the show has a distinct militaristic theme and yet no one respects the chain of command. Everyone talks back to their superiors, and it's always over trivial bullshit or in life threatening situations where seconds should count. It reminds me of Aaron Sorkin's writing where witty dialogue means giving every character down to the lowliest, nameless extra a retort to whatever has been said to them. On the other hand, there are times when characters accept absurd, seemingly contradictory orders without batting an eye. Like when Sinclair tells Garibaldi that if they have to evacuate the station the command staff may have to remain behind to die when the planet they're orbiting explodes. Then, in the very next sentence, he tells Garibaldi to make sure Ivanova gets off the station, even though she's the second highest ranking member of the command staff. But you can stay here and die, Garibaldi, you ugly lump. To which Garibaldi just smiles and nods his head. I think the reason I found this exchange so annoying is because I know B5 is a one-man show. JMS wrote nearly all the episodes and it's painfully apparent that no one on the production staff gave him any push back on his lovely writing. Do things get better in the later seasons?

Delsaber posted:Any talk about 90s mechs just makes me think of Exosquad. This show was good poo poo. An American cartoon in the mid 90s where people actually died. I had to wake up at 5:30am to watch it, but it was worth it.

Robot Jox is never quite as good as you want it to be. Still a fun movie.
