I thought "Frame of Mind" was a good frighteningly surreal one too, even if Riker isn't my favorite character. Speaking of Riker episodes, I loved the metaphysical conundrum in the one where a transporter beam created two of him.

All right, you two, who wrote "Beavis and Butthead rule" on the back of my skull?

Picard's torture sessions. And the Cardassian torturer, Gul Madred, was IMO one of David Warner's finest roles...so creepy. But yeah, the episode in general is something of an acquired taste. In the middle of it now--great episode.

Both real improvements over their respective first season. Fuck, if I weren't going to a show tonight, I'd spend the day watching my DVDs. Fuck real life when you have Star Trek.

LOL @ Picard trying to sleep and Data just standing around like he's going to rape him on the Klingon bird of prey.

Not really getting the disdain people feel for this show. It reminds me a little of the OS, and I love how the ship and technology is low-tech and the Klingons are still the bad guys.

LoriDawn member Then . . . Now Joined: 12/04/08 Location: Michigan%2FIndiana Posts: 339	I love all Star Trek series for different reasons. Data is my favorite character of all series (or maybe it's his cat Spot), and Reg Barclay, can't forget him! I appreciate the questions they ask and the challenges for us today in those questions. I'd start listing episodes I like the most, but the list would be too long. I guess what I like most is that the characters can have differing opinions but still get along and support each other without being condescending.

Hope you like it. Sets up the story and introduces you to all of the characters. It's a good first chapter, especially when viewed in hindsight, but the stories didn't start to get really god until a little later. Still, "Duet" is one of my favorite ST episodes.

Joan Cootes member cougar Joined: 09/04/08 Location: fuggen Minno Posts: 12,111	^^I saw DS9 when it was first released on television, but not all of it. The tv channel kept changing the night/time it was on, so I missed a lot of episodes. I know pretty much what it's all about, and some of the episodes will be "brand new" for me. I intend to buy all seasons in their proper order, the only proper way to do it. Further down the track I'll buy all of Voyager, and maybe all of Enterprise, even though that's not a "real" Star Trek series (so my son says).

RhettButler member Shipwrecked and Comatose Joined: 06/01/09 Location: Cardassia Prime Posts: 15,630	What was great about DS9 is that there are these really long story-arcs so the stories are really well developed. The last story-arc was the final nine episodes and I was up all-night and into the morning watching them. Gul Dukat (in my current avatar, played by the great Marc Alaimo) is easily my all-time favorite Star Trek villain. I don't want to give anything away, but as others have commented, he is a very complicated figure. A bad guy to be sure, but he would show some redeeming qualities at times. I liked how the character rationalized all of his actions, as any realistic person would. For example, he often said that the occupation of Bajor was for the good of the Bajorian people and that he was merely looking after them. To him, any war crime he committed was like a father watching over his children. The character likely believed that too. To me that is far more interesting and believable than some cardboard character who is just pure evil and is self-aware of how evil his actions are and gets-off on it. From the wiki page: Deep Space Nine co-executive producer Ronald D. Moore, "I don't think of him as being completely evil through and through ... He can be charming. He can be generous. He can do the right thing. All of that somehow makes his 'evil' actions all the more despicable, because we know that there was the potential in there for him to be a better person." Ultimately, despite the character's versatility, "Dukat is a bad guy. A very bad guy." Indeed, StarTrek.com describes him as "the most complex and fully developed villain in Star Trek history".

RhettButler member Shipwrecked and Comatose Joined: 06/01/09 Location: Cardassia Prime Posts: 15,630	I just finished all four seasons of Enterprise. I thought that it was, overall, quite good and underrated. I thought that Archer-Tripp-T'pol had a great chemistry and were as good as the main characters from the other series. Scott Bakula in particular, was excellent as Archer. Some episodes were duds, but mostly the show had really strong stories, like any ST series. I hope that someday this show will be reevaluated.
