Every culture has something "screwed up" about it. The Vulcans eventually attained a state of emotionlessness to correct their "issues". It actually made them all the more fascinating.

I think it is very possible.

I liked "Errand of Mercy" the best. It introduced us to the coolest and baddest of the Dahar masters, Kor.

:blush 2:I really don't know much about Trill physiology, but they have the most beautiful women in the ALpha Quadrant. I really can't recall seeing an ugly Trill.I do however, recall seeing how far their markings extend down their bodies though.

 

If you want to see how far trill markings extend down just come visit me in the womens locker room.

And just where would i find this locker room of yours?

If there is one common thread that keeps the Bajorans together, it is their spirituality. I lked how Kira was spiritual, yet tough at the same time.

I never noticed that about her.

I chose T'Pol. She had her faillngs, but her strengths more than made up for that.

What you leave behind does rank up there. It is just that "What you leave behind" is the final so it has to be good. Season endings or the final show does get a great deal of debate. Therefore, it does get the best press.

 

But, to pick a show that has a strong view that is within the season it has to be the show we are talking about.

 

 

Whichever ep a fan picks, odds are that the ep is very good. I really think the strength of an ep like "What you leave behind" or "Siege" is that these types of episodes strike at the heart of current events and they take us on a journey that we never forget.

 

In my judgment, the current events going on in the world and more to the point the middle east do keep the episodes important like "what you leave behind" and the "Siege". Still, DS9 was of the era of 1993 - 1999 with current events, not of the current events post 9/11.

 

In my judgment, post 9/11 current events have hurt the reruns of DS9. And, if DS9 was going to have season 1 in 2007 then in 1993, the show would be scrapped before going into production.

 

Off topic, with Enterprise the show was doomed to die with season 2 with the problem with the Xindi. Having earth attacked and attacking Florida, did hit hard on the feelings of the American public. Then spending the whole season sending NX-01 to see if the Xindi would not attack earth and tell the Xindi hey guys you are being told the wrong story trust us with the truth just made the show come to a bad ending.

 

The joy of watching star trek is to get away from the current events and still keep it on topic of social change. With DS9 and Enterprise, one not designed to role model current events and the other a key lead in the goal, has made them scapegoats.

I can understand where your coming from. For me though, I really feel that DS9 eps like "Siege" and "What You leave behind" still resonate today. Sure, they were made before the 9/11 events and you are right that if the show was to begin production today it would indeed face an uphill battle. I think it is fortunate for us fans that we have the benefit of these great eps because the lessons and morals contained within the stories are truly timeless and we will always find some episode that can be tied into our current world.Star Trek has always tackled current and social events in the guise of sci-fi story-telling so as to motivate us to not only think about social change,but to also be a part of social change.

You read my mind Ezri.

Seska ...... some reason I like bad girls.

 

Yeah, me too!

 

Lets be bad

I'm down with that

Minefield from ENT is my pick even though the Romulans are heard and not seen in that one.

i say 23rd century uniforms were retro cool.

I like them. They show a differing side if you will to ancient Vulcan culture.

I always thought that the Remans were indigenous to Remus and were forced into servitude when the Romulans conquered their star system.

I think if there is one thing that they have proven time and again it is that they (Cardassians) are very passionate about their beliefs and that they will fight and die for what they believe in.

Blue Jays did in fact win the World Series!!!!, i think they are due again :clap

Seska ...... some reason I like bad girls.

Yeah, me too!

A very good ep. I lked Kira as a Cardassian, to me she seemed cuter that way. :blush 2:

I thought it was a great ep. The MACOs really stomped the bad guys in this one, plus we started to see a more determined Archer.

That is a good point. I think with Voyager, we as fans were treated to a strong, female lead that really was a great character. Unfortunately, in other series, we weren't treated to that.
