Why'd she leave for its last loving season? Becker? If I recall she even left that a season or two in. Girl has no sense of loyalty.

Not as much of a babe though Yeah but they violated their own loving made up rules. Remember the insanity when Dax's former wife showed up? You can't maintain old relationships like that. So sure. Let's just have her stationed in the same goddamn station as the last trill. They should have just dropped Dax. Ezri wasn't needed.

Shadow posted:Yeah but they violated their own loving made up rules. At that point the Dax symbiont was a write off for the Trill. Ezri wasn't ready and wasn't appropriate as a host, she was simply the only Trill nearby. Stick Dax in Ezri now, or Dax dies. Then they get home to Trill and it was too late to remove Dax without killing Ezri. Everyone knows it is a poo poo situation, but they are stuck together until Ezri dies. Ezri Dax was having trouble coping. Eventually the trill decided to just let her do whatever she needs to do to get through the rest of her life. Who knows, they may be planning to retire the Dax symbiont to the breeding pools after this life anyway. Dax remembers the time it was in a psycho murderer. It remembers the time it was part of a guy who literally cut it out of Jadzia's body to steal it. It remember the time it was part of a guy who was perving on his young student and failed her out of spite. Dax is kind of a gently caress up at this point.

If that's true it's funny because DS9, more than all the others, is the Trek series where the characters are all buddy-buddy with each other, hanging out in their free time, joking around, occasionally loving each other, etc.

AFAIK know the cast generally liked each other but yeah they weren't bros like the TNG cast or the Voyager boy's club. Word is the DS9 set felt way more like a professional businesslike setting. Bashir and Kira did bone and have a kid together, so there's that, so I guess it wasn't all professional. Fun fact about Star Trek actors boning: B'Elanna and Damar were married together and divorced from each other before either was on Star Trek. mango sentinel fucked around with this message at 09:42 on Mar 31, 2015 |

Shadow posted:They should have just dropped Dax. Ezri wasn't needed. I sort of agree, but at the same time, having the symbiont in a new host had the potential to be really interesting... if it were an actual planned part of the story and didn't happen so close to the end of the series. As it was, it just felt like "oh, we lost an actress, let's fill the role with someone else." It could have been done much better.

hes done an incredible job of mopping up the fact that he is a holocaust revisionist, i guess thats what being a wealthy tv star and lawyering up can do for you considering the irony of his on-screen portrayal of a collaborator in ds9, more people need to be made aware of this

many of the arguments the character of odo makes rationalizing his own role in the genocide of bajor line up almost exactly with claims made by people like david irving. lmao if you think that is somehow a coincidence

Tender Bender posted:Why the gently caress was data created to be "fully functional". Lore was created first, and he was identical to a human, but he was evil because humans are special. Then Data was created but was not identical to humans so that means he can't be evil, and for some reason this means he also needed to have a penis. The whole Data thing is stupid though. The Enterprise's computer made Moriarty just by asking it to make something that could defeat data. Imagine if that information got out on the space Internet.

Yaos posted:In season 1 of TNG, Data had been in Starfleet for 17 years and was 3rd in command of the Enterprise. Despite this, he still acted as though he had never met a person in his entire life and had to be explained even the simplest of things like not sticking your dick in the trash compactor. More importantly, why did Data want to be human so badly? Is it because he kind of looks humans? If he looked like a Vulcan would he consider himself perfect? No, of course, not. Data wants to be human because the writers of TNG are a bunch of racists. The noble white man travels the galaxy, telling the savages the correct way to live, and if they don't listen they are evil. Obviously Data would want to be human, because only somebody evil would not want to be human, and that person is Lore. It's pussyfoot attitudes like this that allowed those evil space worms to almost take over the Federation at the end of Season 1.

the federation is just human imperialism, imposing literal humanistic values on diverse and alien cultures. the average federation ship - de facto space military and police - is staffed and led primarily by humans with a few token aliens. hosed up if you think about it

Rabble posted:The episode that was weird was the one where Bartley got blasted by a space probe that turned him into a genius that intergrated himself in with the ship through the holodeck and flew the enterprise to some random planet where a giant disembodied head appeared on the bridge and was like "oh cool, you guys are neat lookng." Then they took away Bartley's newfound gifts and that's the last you hear about it. Star Trek is cool because it has a ton of "if you think about it this changes everything" episodes and then nothing changes but maybe if ur lucky therell be a callback in a later episode
