Star Trek
Welcome to a Star Trek community where you’re free to chat and share your opinions about all things Trek!
I want to have a place where fans can come to praise, discuss, and even criticise things in the Star Trek franchise. No show or movie is perfect, and I don't believe people should be silenced for having a dissenting opinion. That being said, there are still a few rules.
Be Nice - No personal attacks. You can disagree with someone's opinion, but it needs to stop there.
No Slurs - This is applicable to ethnicity, religion, gender, or anything else.
No Adult Content - Keep it family friendly.
No Spamming or Trolling - Consistently spamming comments or trolling is just not needed.
Keep Topics Trek Related - This is a Star Trek community, so of course discussion should stay in that area! That means no real world politics.

I've heard that from a lot of people and I can absolutely see why. Ngl Sisko was... awkward for the first season or two, which, sure, he was starting from a low place, but his delivery of lines seemed almost randomly inflected. Weird, crazy smiles or gestures that felt out of place. I've really come to love him though, I get why hes so many folks' favorite captain.
I've had kind of a rough stretch irl and my mental/emotional health hasn't been doing great, but this has been helping. I've even started picking up a little Klingon for fun, I've always meant to but never got around to it.
Now, though, im faced with a dilemma - when im done, do i a) finally watch TOS, b) binge Voyager (similar deal as DS9, watched a bit back when it was airing but never the full show), or c) re-watch Lower Decks now that ill get all the DS9 references?
It's a good dilemma.
Yeah, early Sisko seemed a bit more awkward until he figured out the character a little more. I've always liked most of the extra expressive things he did, but it definitely is a different acting choice than you see most making. He was also something unique in that he was a Star Trek character with a good family relationship! Plus, he was the only captain that could get rid of Q. 😉
I'm glad something is helping out! It's nice to be able to drop into something like that for a while sometimes.
That is a dilemma! I recently rewatched DS9 then Voyager, and for me it was a bit of a letdown after DS9. Some people prefer Voyager though, so you never know! I still like it, but the type of storytelling doesn't work as well for binging for me.
