In the 90s series too, especially the women.

In Voyager, every main cast member is wigged to some extent, even if just false sideburns. Except apparently the Doctor who grew his own pointy sideburns and was clearly not bewigged on top.

Robert Picardo talked about this on I think a podcast I listened to several years ago, so sadly I can’t link to the source as I don’t recall where it was.

Star Trek: Picarchber

It reminds me of DS9 in that sense. SNW season two seemed to alternate between really dark episodes and really light episodes.

There’s a quite long series of novels that follows on from DS9, starting with Avatar books one and two.

Later they intertwine with Next Gen, Voyager, and (briefly) Enterprise continuation novels too.

But that series was wrapped up a couple of years ago after Picard started, because the TV series contradicted the novels, and the publishers wanted to get back into sync.

I really enjoyed following along with the continued adventures of the ds9 crew.

This week’s just felt designed to annoy us, what with getting the ranks wrong and all. Let alone the totally un-Trek message.

I think there is a reference to a third kid who we don’t see on screen.

[-] jimternet@startrek.website 10 points 1 year ago

It’s an Insurrection reference.

Anything by Una McCormack. Especially DS9, but not exclusively.

A Stitch In Time, by Garak, is also generally considered top of the class.

Yes. They’ve announced it as a direct to Paramount+ TV movie.

She was once. Then she was played by Robin Curtis in her two later appearances. Which at the time was unusual in Star Trek.

Now loads of characters have had two or three different actors play them.
