Well, if somebody makes a decent point to me or makes an argument that doesn't sound like delusional nostalgia, I'll be gratified.  Of course I'm making comments to a gaggle horny lesbian Star Trek fans so…

Ugh.

"WE…CAN'T…JUST…LEAVE HER HERE!  AAAGH!  AAAGH!  NO!  NO!"

I love how Nana Visitor's a professional singer/dancer and she just talk-sings the cadence.  Clever girl.

Let's see - "Duet", "Duet", and oh yeah "Duet".

Time for my requisite "Ron Moore is a douche" rant.  I saw an documentary about Harlan Ellison and guess who shows up?  How does he work on his TV shows if he keeps doing douche interviews all the freaking time?

Buck, I should have consulted you before settling on my name!  Can you believe the Packers actually lost?  Unbelievable. Truly the work of the prophets.

What's the old joke?  Four hours of begging?

If they are simply super-beings, then the Bajorans look like idiots for worshiping them, eh?  That's like humans worshiping Q or Trelane or the Metrons.

Neither - they're just annoying.  I agree with Handlen about the pseudo-intellectual religious bullshit plot-filling, brings everything on DS9 to a dead-stop.  If they worship these prophets or celebrate, they obviously must assume it is within the prophet's grand scheme to see their beloved race nearly wiped out. …

If we're going by tits, I say Ezri.  If we're going by wits, I say Jadzia.  So obviously Ezri edges her out.

Isn't "Past Prologue" kind of an oxymoron?  Like "Last Epilogue" or "First Beginning"?

Weird how "Duet" (first season, no less) is the best, and I mean hands-freaking-down best ever episode of DS9 produced.  How did they manage that?  Harris Yulin had me in fucking tears.  I was eating dinner and I dropped my fork when we got the big reveal and I was like, "Holy shit."  First time I really, truly…

Lurky, watch out or you'll get spun into gold - or gold-pressed latinum…I love the little dude though - pour a 40 out on the curb for Carnivale.

I liked Garak; he was like a Cardassian "Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Gay Spy"…

Ugh.

Kira's haircut - yeah, apparently the Aniston-"Friends"-bob was still in vogue in the 24th Century.  At least for the pilot and then they shaved it down, giving her a dikey-do.

Brooks was an adequate ham in the Star Trek legacy/tradition of Star Trek hams.  He was bat shit out of his mind in the pilot and much of the 1st season, as was Nana Visitor - for some reason in the first seasons of this, TNG, Voyager, and Enterprise, the producers/directors seem to think presence is dictated by the…

Handlen, did you say of all the Trek pilots you've seen, "Emissary" was most rife with possibility?  What about "The Cage" - the one that started it all?  If you watch "Emissary" again, you'll see it's mainly a variation of "The Cage"; what with the disgruntled, burned-out Starfleet Officer, the past tragedy that…

She actually sounds like Patrick Stewart. What a surrogate!
