The Muse - am I alone in feeling that an episode in which an exotic older woman comes along and tells the writer character what a special snowflake they are might just be a bit of a wish-fulfillment fantasy among the DS9 writing staff?

Don't ask questions you already know the answer to.

Well, you say that, but it's not as though letting the actors fuck around in the holodeck isn't a pretty well trodden path to wacky hi-jinks.

I think this is my favourite Star Trek gimmick account. Which is a tough field. And oddly enough, I wasn't so keen on it originally (TLDR stories about a self-aggrandising TV producer - who'd want to read that).

I am a very silly man and you shouldn't interview me.

I'm going to be on holiday next week, so I'm going to get my ranting done here.

Also, while I remember, there's an increasingly funny running joke about the propensity for women to fall into bed with him.

@LurkyMcLurkerson:disqus One of the best things about BSG is that, at least among the human characters, there aren't any clear heroes or villains in it. Everyone (ok, except maybe Karl Agathon) is desperately flawed in some way or other. So although Baltar is slimy and self-serving, he's also often more humane and…
