    Deep Space Nine: For the Fans

    I also think they're going to have to eventually do it to futureproof both DS9 and Voyager. The only question is will they do it correctly like they did TNG, or half-ass it. Personally, when I see the articles stating that they spend around $10 million per episode for these new turds that fall...

    Bingo. If this had been real news, it wouldn't have been only on a Shithole clickbait fake news site in March and not be discussed by anyone until a month later. The legit Trek sites would be trumpeting this as loudly as possible. ViacomCBS would have press releases. It wouldn't be a secret...

    Deep Space Nine: For the Fans

    That is exactly what happened. They realized they started the Dukat and Winn storyline too early and had run out of stuff for them to do, so they blinded him and sent him away until it was time. I'll look forward to discussing next episode's Klingon developments after you watch.

    Deep Space Nine: For the Fans

    If I recall correctly, the writers said if they'd known they would be doing It's Only A Paper Moon, it would've been O'Brien getting his leg cut off. Also, Bill Mumy agreed to his role only if he could skip his usual skin destroying alien make-up. And to tie those two things together, what...

    Deep Space Nine: For the Fans

    The original idea for this episode, which was celebrating Star Trek's 30th anniversary, was supposed to be a return to Sigma Iota II from TOS... you know, the planet that took their identity from a book about the Roaring 20s? Well, when the Defiant returned to the planet, their society was going...

    Deep Space Nine: For the Fans

    It's a bunch of know nothing nobodies trying to get nerd cred by predicting bullshit that will never come true. Then, they play telephone between their loser sites with these rumors, and the only proof any of them has is the initial article that is, well, bullshit to begin with. So, don't...

    Nor does he look as good in a catsuit and heels.

    Way of the Warrior: Yeah, Paramount and Berman forced those changes on DS9 creative to juice the ratings. They weren't happy about it. But it does work out, both in our reality and in the show's reality.

    Deep Space Nine: For the Fans

    Just be glad Regehr wasn't playing the role like he did his last Trek role, when he was Doctor Crusher's (and her Nana's) magical Scottish fu*k candle ghost lover in "Sub Rosa". There's a lot more I could discuss with you in what you wrote, but it's all spoilers. Maybe in a season or two's...

    IIRC what 3x22 is, that was a very good episode, and a beginning of sorts.

    Deep Space Nine: For the Fans

    Yeah, the one with the shipwreck survivor was The Sound Of Her Voice, the penultimate episode of season 6. Very good episode. Distant Voices is a season 3 Bashir episode that... well, we'll save that for Adam.

    Deep Space Nine: For the Fans

    I watched DS9 early this year, right after BBC America added it to the schedule. I figured instead of watching their hacked up versions, I'd just pull out the DVDs. I think there were about 10 episodes that I thought were just bad. Oddly enough, they were in seasons 3 and above. I liked Move...

    Two words: Jake Sisko. 71 episodes out of 176.

    Deep Space Nine: For the Fans

    If you noticed, Neela was O'Brien's second Female Bajoran assistant. For some reason, the first one who was originally going to be the assassin and had been introduced before Neela was replaced, giving them even less time to set her up.

    Allamarain, count to four. Poor Terry Farrell was going to be the one making the TNG guest appearance in Birthright, but she was deemed more important to Move Along Home, so she lost the guest spot and they threw Bashir in instead. If one has to boil down a series to the few "episodes worthy...
