/c/TenForward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. Use spoiler tags in comments, and NSFW checkbox for posts.
This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'

~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.

Fun will now commence.

You can't really categorize Sisko episodes this easy. Sometimes it's emotionally compelling war crimes with him, and sometimes it's fucking baseball.

Why does every other Lemming besides me hate the baseball episode? That shit was hilarious! 😩

[–] ummthatguy@lemmy.world 12 points 2 months ago

Just rewatched it last night. It's the light-hearted camp between the horrors of war.

Trek has this annoying habit of thinking its viewers need to "take a breather" in the middle of high tension arcs. We don't.

(That said i don't mind take me out at all, even if it is a bit morally childish. Or in the cards, which is a breather ep for the characters)

in the cards is legitimately one of my favorite DS9 episodes. I always laugh at the end when mr "i want to live forever" starts talkin to Weyoun about his cellular entertainment machine or whatever and Weyoun is actually interested.

I can't remember exactly how they described it, but someone on the DS9 documentary said that Avery Brooks spoke like he was performing a jazz concert that only he could hear. He really is hard to predict haha. One of my favorite small moments for Sisko was when Odo came into his office to give a report and Odo starts quietly singing. Sisko gives the slightest glimmer of a smile and starts snapping along with the beat.

"His Way" s6e20

Edit: The 1st Vic episode, I might add.

That's the one!

"Nooo they can't take that away from me."

You misspelled β€œthe awesome sport of kings” baseball.
