Another issue with Vic is that he served as the crew's emotional confidant... during the same season they had a counselor come on board for that exact purpose. As much as I love "It's Only a Paper Moon", that episode portrayed Ezri as a complete moron who couldn't help Nog through his trauma.
Fucking stupid to give her a halfway redemption arc and then backpedal with...whatever the hell they thought they were doing here.
It was foreshadowed all the way back in the opening arc of season 6. The female Founder says she'd pull back every warship to the Gamma quadrant if it meant bringing Odo home to the Great Link. The affairds of solids are nothing compared to her own people. It makes perfect sense she'd drop everything and go to jail in exchange for Odo returning to the Great Link and saving their race.
Worf is quite religious by Star Trek standards and Picard doesn't seem to mind much because Worf keeps it to himself most of the times. That's a thing they kinda "fixed" later. He does mind the irrationality that comes with certain religious thinking, as we saw in that episode (when they made him a God) and the one with that woman who claimed to have returned to a planet to be their god ("Devil's Due", I think it's called). Some of the people of that planet were fine with slaving themselves to someone who only showed them cheap tricks. Of course that Picard's sceptical mind was meant to try to debunk her claims. In WWtW, I'm sure he would have been less patronising if they didn't make him a deity and they were just already religious. Also, this is a situation they indirectly caused, doble reason to be mad.
I like Ardra. Apparently the writers thought she was too TOS coded and old-school, send her to the glue factory.
Bartenders are better shrinks than actual shrinks, qed.
Brooks starring in the hit Broadway play "Candyman" went straight to his head.
Once he cures the link they will all discover that Odo and the Federation nearly genocided them all. After that I don't know why they would respect the surrender and instead go bezerker on the whole Alpha quadrant.
Winn got absolutely no redemption or even an ending that proportional to the character. The shitty religious leader having a crises of faith gets incinerated, while Changeling Hitler gets Federation room and board. Much fedora tipping in the writers' room that day.
TOS coded?!? That hair and those shoulder pads could not be any more 80's... (I think that episode actually aired in the 90's though.) Regardless, I do not understand what they mean.
I don’t really know a ton about this guy, but I get the sense he’s just one of those old-school actors where the fear of commitment outweighs the money. He had a film career during this, too.
If you sit on Picard you can sit on his chair, it's a rule.
This is a minor peeve but it bugs me every single time. That lazy flashback shows Worf reminiscing about that time he was on the Holodeck for "Our Man Bashir" .... Except he wasn't in control and did not have any memories of this happening. It bugs me every time I see it.
Have you ever seen the Starship Troopers OVA? As far as I know the only version available online was ripped from a laserdisc and later upscaled. It's interesting as the quality didn't seem all that much better than VHS. I will admit those covers and packaging are really cool, way better than any packaging since.
it isn't
Sam Rockwell is up there. He was even in one of the better Star Trek movies.
I find it strange that guys like Sam Rockwell and Leland Orser were born in California and not, say, Tulsa. They have that Coen Brothers face.
