Sisko enlists a murderer to assassinate a senator to trick his species into joining a galactic war and throws his self respect in he gutter for the greater good.

I always liked how she seemed bipolar being hopelessly idealistic in some episodes but then in later episodes acting really ruthless.

Then going back to being idealistic and turning down help to get home faster.

I always thought Voyager was a bit hit and miss and I never really liked how they usually never kept any modifications they made to the ship even if it vastly improved things.

One of my favourite episodes out of any Star Trek show though was The Chute. I thought it was really well done.

Yeah probably the biggest flaw with Voyager was how there was no sense of continuity and always lots of cheap resets to return anything to the status quo.

The series would have been great (or at least a lot better) if they'd actually stuck to the premise of Voyager being on its own. Unnamed crew getting killed in other shows didn't matter because it was believable that Starfleet just sent some new red/yellow shirt grunts to replace them. On Voyager it should have been a big deal. Not only on a personal level, but the work that person did now has to be divided amongst the remaining crew. After a few deaths, things are going to be getting pretty tense just because everyone's overworked. "Yeah, I'd love to help you analyse that strange star, Captain, but I've got to repair our inexplicable biological circuits, clean the spooge out of the holodeck and arrest the seventh person today who's tried to kill Neelix."

Still bugs me that the ship looked as good at the end of the series as it did at the beginning. It should have scarred and patched up. Internal bulkheads should have been getting cut up to patch the hull. It should have been a patchwork of parts from different races they'd encountered.

It really takes no effort to come up with better ideas for Voyager, and so many of them just come from following through on the idea of one small ship, alone, having to cross an indifferent at best, hostile at worst chunk of galaxy.

Ronald Moore dissatisfaction with Voyager led him to make a very different tone for BSG, especially ideas like keeping ship damage and scars consistent over time.

Killjoys is also back, which is not a very good show, but it works for Friday nights when I just don't give a poo poo.

Killjoys is pretty cheesy but at same time compelling for some reason such as the cyberpunk setting.

To be fair, it's not like Worf's foster parents would have necessarily known what was accurate or fair about Klingon culture. The Federation's obviously got no fuckin' clue (remember Picard's remark to Riker in season 2 about "we still know so little about them"), so I figure they basically got school textbooks or whatever from the Klingon embassy. Of course the materials they get are going to say that Klingons are actually the most honorable space warrior empire, and it's not like they want to say "yeah actually you come from a nation of dipshits that are scared of Tribbles, Fed supremacy forever", so it makes sense that Worf's going to have a rather idealized vision of the ~*Klingon Empire*~.

And, hell, it's entirely possible that old man Mogh really was a super-upstanding honorable space warrior. Martok might be more pragmatic but he obviously still believes in the ideals of Klingon culture too - he's just grown up in it enough to know how to keep his head down and bend rather than stand up and get killed for his ideals. Worf just didn't have that experience.

It's still pretty unfair to call Worf a 'weeaboo' because he really is a Klingon who is desperate to know more about where he comes from and to engage with the culture that his parents were part of, or at least what he believed his parents were part of. Now, if Wesley Crusher was getting into arguments with Barclay about how "fuckin', klingons are actually the most honorable space empire, i only watch klingon operas with subs not dubs," we'd be totally right in calling Wesley a "klingaboo" or whatever the gently caress word we want to use for that.

Anyone who has a hand in killing Talaxians is a hero. Unless Neelix is the absolute worst member of his race. That would explain why he's bumming around space on his own in a lovely ship, trying to save a three year-old he's been grooming.

I may have judged Talaxians too harshly.

Neelix is basically the sci fi version of the weird dude with open sores who rides the city bus.

Cardies only got genocided when they rose up and proved them selves disloyal. Also the Vorta when left to their own devices are probably super legalistic but the founders don't give a poo poo about law and order and will kill your planet on a whim. But it seems like they almost never directly get involved with the day to day of their empire, just giving general orders from afar. I think the founders directly running the war in the alpha quadrant was forced on them due to the circumstances of being essentially trapped there. Many in the dominion only think they're legends they're so mysterious. The only faces of the dominion anyone sees are the Vorta to be pleasant administrators and facilitators and give you carrots, and the Jem Hadar if you need a stick.

Also yeah, gently caress TVIV, GBS trek is best trek.

Except because DS9 has an internal continuity, the irony is not lost on Sisko. I love how Quark just revels in finally finding out that Sisko has a price. He is willing to drat himself for the greater good. And even though he claims he can live with it, there is just that slight inflection when he repeats himself that suggests he is being torn up inside for going against his morals.
Seriously, just listen to this monologue. It is amazing.

Yeah not to mention how giving in was driving by the change in situation in which the Federation was losing the war.
