Some episodes and arcs in DS9 were phenomenal. I don't think I ever watched a DS9 episode more than once because I always wanted to watch it back to back.

Some episodes in Voyager, mainly epic battles, were also amongst the best ever, not to mention 7 of 9 in general. Equinox, Scorpion, Deadlock, Timeless, Year of [censored], Tuvik, Message in a Bottle.


I've tried to get into DS9. I just can't.

I've watched every season of TNG, Voyager and "Enterprise"

That is one of my favourites. I also lvoe "In the Pale Moonlight" from DS9, but perhaps I'm biased.

When DS9 premiered, I watched it as often as I could; but my local station kept moving it from one time slot to another, and I missed great chunks of the storyline. I liked what I saw, especially Nana Visitor as the Bajoran commander Major Kira.

A point about the interconnections in Hollywood. I have read that one of its producers or story editors was Peter Allan Fields, who began his TV writing career on "The Man from U.N.C.L.E." As an in-joke or nod to him, there's a shopfront on the DS9 promenade, visible in more than one episode, labeled "Del Floria's" -- the name of the tailor shop in MfU where the agents entered headquarters.

Your bias does not change my opinion "In the Pale Moonlight" is one my favorite Star Trek episodes.

I wish I could say the same in regards to the latest Star Trek Movie.

I really enjoyed playing Birth of the Federation and Voyager Elite Force.


Those two.

Starfleet Command 1,2,3.
Starfleet Academy.
Klingon Academy. (Much better.)
Klingon Honor Guard.
Star Trek Online.
Star Trek Armada 1,2.

Disagree completely. Janeway was a good captain, well played by Kate Mulgrew. Ms Bujold was wooden and unconvincing in the first days of shooting the pilot episode. A great actress, but completely incapable of playing a Captain.
 
Annoying characters:

Voyager: Janeway, Neelix, Paris, Tores.

TNG: Troi, Troi's mother, Worf, Ensign To

DS9: Kira

Ah, but Troi's mother was suppose to be annoying. Therefore, good acting on Majel Barrett's part.

I laughed when I read that....and I can't argue, in the first few seasons, I found him irritating while Kess was cloying and saccharine...but in the later seasons, Neelix showed some depth, and became a genuine character...instead of the caricature he was initially.

She was TOO good!

We would have never gotten this great image if it wasn't for a "Ménage à Troi"

I think she was everyone's nightmare mother-in-law.

Oddly enough, I haven't seen it, but yep, I heard I didn't miss much. I'll have to catch it anyhow, sooner or later, since that's simply mandatory.
