BioEnchanted posted:I'm at the start of season 7, I like the stuff with Garak's claustrophobia getting worse due to his anxiety about his part in the war. Onto the baseball game episode next. Also the stuff with the return of Benny the Writer was fun, I thought he was just a one-off. I also like that Weyoun is clearly not enjoying being stuck with Damar as his primary contact after Dukat's breakdown. He's stuck with a lovely, bargain bin cardassian and he knows it. Damar knows it too.

The baseball episode is fun behind the scenes because apparently Nana Visitor was the actual worst player on the cast, she couldn't throw or catch a ball at all. Meanwhile, Rom's actor Max Grodénchik was a semi-pro player who literally could not play badly enough for the script and had to do everything left handed

The main reason DS9 is so good is that is was made at the same time as Voyager and Rick Berman was focused on that show instead

The Federation Charter is not a suicide pact. It was originally founded as basically a Space NATO of five worlds at war with the Romulans who realized they had to combine resources or get conquered. And thus, Starfleet's peaceful exploration ships have enough firepower to glass a planet.

The shows rarely ever gave us a proper demonstration of how powerful 24th century tech could be, or how superior the Federation is to most of its neighbors. One good example is The Wounded when the USS Phoenix goes rogue and shits all over the Cardassian ships trying to stop it. Or for a slightly dumber example, the Voyager episode where the Prometheus obliterates a D'Deridex. The scene in The Die is Cast also comes to mind, where the 20-ship Romulan/Cardassian fleet bombards the planet and destroys 30% of the planetary crust in a single volley, before they find out the Dominion is the biggest shark in the water.

Atlas Hugged posted:That was loving hilarious. It's an amazing scene. The moment they realize they are completely hosed. quote:PILOT: The first barrage has hit the surface... There's an earlier scene in that episode where they discuss the plan, which includes this detail: quote:TAIN (to Garak): Our plan is to wait until we've entered orbit of the Founders' planet, then decloak and begin a massive bombardment. Destroy the mantle of a planet in five hours? No problem!

Taear posted:I wonder how DS9 series 7 would have been if they'd made up with Farrell and not changed her out. So many (4, 5?) episodes are dealing with Ezri as a new character and I wonder what they'd have done with that not being a thing any more I like Ezri but the episode where we meet her family is the actual worst DS9 episode so it would have been an improvement
