a TV remote control shaped like a phaser

Now this is podracing

Did I mention I'm genetically enhanced yet?

tfw when Deep Space Nine was being set up and you didn't even realize it

It's was like prophecy desu

they should have had him be genetically corrected to normal. bashir could still be disqualifed for EMH but the federation could recognize that some genetic modification is acceptable. by some definitions measles parties are genetic modification.

You're just a retard, retard.

Big deal. Are you 1/5th federation?

And that's a good thing!

it's a martok episode

maybe the federation was the real borg all along? really joggs the old noggin

Fuck you.

Akoochee and the Blowfish

Genetically engineered? Then why is it so small?

Me on the right

I've been watching enterprise.

Why do most here call it the worst of the older shows?
Humans wanting to explore, against the volcan wishes is a cool idea.
Faith of the heart matches this idea perfectly. The crew is likeable.

The temoral cold war plot has only come up couple times. Thus far it seems unnecessary but I'm willing to see where it goes. Id say biggest downside thus far is call backs to other shows (holodeck, possibility of a prime directive) but they only happen occasionally

okay, we need to design a humanoid alien type character

No problem bro, just add weird ass bumps and shit to their forehead bro

Or y’know spots if the actress is pretty. Fwiw Michael Dorn was a champ: imagine having to put on Klingon makeup for close to a decade

People were sick of prequels by then, and had grown annoyed by post-9/11 handwringing about torture on TV. It's a fine show though, and probably could have gone on for a while.

People were sick of prequels by then

The only mainstream prequel at the time was Star Wars, are you sure about that?

sick of prequels

What prequels?
Only big one i can think from the time is star wars

Yeah anon is just talking out of his ass and probably repeating RLM
And when ENT premiered in September 2001, the only SW prequel was Phantom Menace, people wouldn't have been "sick of them" yet

It's hard to properly hate Cardassians when they're so funny

The Scorpion King

Also cute.

What are you quoting?

Reed Alert

Eyeing Pornography That Uses the Holocaust as Titillation

archive.is/b6q3o

you will understand after 20 more episodes of temporal cold war

The temporal cold war was fine, it was that sudden left hand turn into yet another space nazi threat that killed the show.

The writing was on the wall. Phantom Menace was and is awkward and bad.

SEXOOOOOOOOOO

I personally liked the space Nazis. Them trying to make them more evil by being ugly aliens just made them cooler

a holocaust historian or fabricator, depending who you ask

Strangely honest.

Bajoran comfort women? I’ll take three, no need to wrap them, I plan on parading them naked on the promenade on the way home

Why is that one burnt? Throw it out the airlock while the others watch.

It feels like the whole "You monsters killed 15 million people, in 50 years, on a whole planet" thing was just scifi writers being bad at math

For reference, if you are a person on earth with a driver's license, you are approximately four times more likely to die violently this year than a Bajoran living under occupation would be over the same timeframe

Or to scale it the other way, if the Cardassians had merely been as vigorous and thorough as, say, machete-wielding Rwandans were in real life, over a 50 year span they would have killed 120 million Bajorans. And again this is if a planet-wide terror campaign were only as bloody as what one group, in one country managed.

Dukat after a few glasses of kanar be like

Fiction is fiction, you can make up whatever the hell number you want, why lowball it?
Darth Vader once killed 2 billion people in five seconds

Tarkin was in command.

>Dukat after a few glasses of kanar be like

No the great thing about him is he will say this shit while stone cold sober and believe it with all his heart.

I guess Quark's onto something about humans. Humans really are Trek's top race - they just keep doing everything better than all of the other races.

do their pussies have ridges like their foreheads? cuz...uh....that'd be awesome.

ridged for your pleasure

Dangling piercings

Yes the government that hanged out its own citizens to dry is good

Touch grass. Eddington did nothing wrong.

He did everything wrong!

I can see both sides of it. Is it cool that the Feds ceded populated worlds against the colonists’ wishes? Not really but that’s realpolitik, concessions sometimes need to be made. Are the Maquis reasonable? Nah, they were all fresh colonies and the galaxy is a big place. Maybe fuck off to somewhere a little less dangerous instead of being a stubborn cunt

realpolitik

When they easily could have curbstomped the Cardassians. That's not counting in inviting the Klingons to the party. Total Cardassian death would have been the reasonable choice after 20 years of provocations and brushfire wars.

Are the Maquis reasonable?

Yes, they are. What would you do if your home was signed over to some space niggers by some distant bureaucrcy that couldn't care less?

That's the point, idiot.
In a real star trek show eddington would have done everyting wrong.
In a faggot retarded babylon 5 ripoff where they they barely ever trek to any stars eddington did nothing wrong.

Kinda crazy to think Kira in the end gave more grace to an actual Cardassian oppressor than her own mother who decided to give her family a chance to survive than martyr herself.

*rather than

go back to the holodeck and wank

what is General Order 24

Touch grass schizo.

It was the outcome of a peace negotiation. Both sides were attempting to come to a mutually acceptable agreement to end the fighting, not escalate it. I said that I don’t think it’s cool that the feds sold them out but if my options are to stay on some planet I’ve not really invested much in and potentially get shot or fuck off and find a new planet I’m fucking off to find a new planet

The Federation is run by utter fucktards, the Cardies didn't have to give up any colony worlds and even if they did Starfleet is so beta they wouldn't even force them to leave. That and the no cloak treaty with the Romulans, again making concessions and getting nothing in return. I bet the Khitomer accord lets Klingons shit in the street in San Francisco and rape cadets in the Academy.

What would you do if your home was signed over to some space niggers

Think of all the prefab huts, dirt roads and organic corn fields left behind. It would take them 1000 gorillion years to rebuild on a new planet.

why yes, your home is just an economic extraction zone to which you should not have any emotional attachments. Now sign yourself over posessions to the space niggers.

Utter delusion.
The Feds were duped into thinking the Cardassians are anything but a paper tiger that'll collapse if kicked in the teeth.

You can toy with the idea, you cant make it a fucking season of

ACTUALLY OUR CORE BELIEF IS RETARDED

why yes you should go to war over my emotional attachment to doing a pioneer LARP in the 24th century

why no, we shouldn't defend our citizens against hostile incursions on our territory.

The feds are pussies, news at 11. It’s not really relevant to the situation for the colonists: it’s a done deal. You can, with the full support and material backing of the federation, find and establish a new colony in a lest contested region of space. Or, you can fight futilely for a planet you have no particular attachment to. Choose wisely

we don't need to abide by federation treaties because it's our god given right to grow tomatoes on this particular planet btw make sure Cardies don't mess with us. also, fuck the Federation.

Maquis should be fucking gassed

They were.

That was so cathartic

If you think about it, an alien race occupying your planet for sex slaves is kind of fucked up. It's not like Bajor had anything else going for it except hot chicks

Bajoran pussies have evolved to take the much larger cardassian dicks.
Bajoran men are only kept around to breed more bajoran woman to serve the cardassian peace forces.

Let me guess: you need more?

Are there any other female Vorta except that one with the booba?

There was at least one less well endowed one, yes. I still would, it’s the human way

I feel the same about Weyoun

muh treaties

muh space law

Worthless if they're signed with people that waste no time to shit on either. How about you neck yourself?

Breathe gas faggot

Oxygen IS a gas, you moron

theres also the one they murder when they steal the ship in season 7

The Dominion could have conquered the Alpha Quadrant without firing a shot if they merely promised all men a big booba Vorta waifu.

ywn fuck Vortette while snorting ketracel white off her tits

Maybe if she was the Bajoran in DS9 I wouldn't have hated them so much. All Bajorans, not Ro, should have been killed in the occupation.

I could never tell if they were trying to make them unsympathetic or tried too hard to make them sympathetic and flubbed it really badly. Still can’t. Dukat did nothing wrong

Dukat did nothing wrong

He was too kind. Too magnanimous. Too gentle-hearted and sensitive. He loved Bajaroans too much.

If you want to see what a "deconstruction" looks like, look at The Last Jedi.

DS9 was a love-letter to Star Trek from start to finish and they honored it by testing the principles of the Federation by fire in a circumstance with some real jeopardy and stakes.
There's a reason the TOS tribble episode has so much soul -- because the people making DS9 got Star Trek on a deep, fundamental level which has since been lost to time.
TOS is my favorite Trek show btw.

Tribble episode was a lame fan service throwback that added nothing and you’ll not convince me otherwise

It really is puzzling. Every single time Bajorans are involved we're shown how they're nothing but a literal feudal backwards insane society. They betray the Federation every chance they get. They have the biggest ego of any species. They're obsessed with worshipping literal wormhole aliens. They even go against Federation values, remember that episode where all the Bajorans refused to send their kids to school because the school wasn't a literal "suck off wormhole alien" class? Remember when Kira and the Bojorans refused Romulan help at a hospital. Even though they themselves admitted and demonstrated how absolutely incapable they are of defending the station. I hate them so much, I could go on all day.

You can lead a retard to water but you can't unshit his taste, as the saying goes.

Does make you want to ravage and despoil them though doesn't it?

the episode where they form a caste system just because some rando fake prophet told them to

She was such a fucking asshole... I don't how the crew put up with her bullshit on a day-to-day basis.

They felt bad for her because her planet got occupied

How did Cardies never figure out how fucking super effective using their retarded religion to manipulate them into doing and accepting anything could be?

The Cardassian religion is the state

What did it actually add to the show or any existing plot arc? At least the mirror universe is cool and we got to see Kira’s ass in tight spandex. Tribbles? Gtfo

Why do people always bring up Israel/Palestine with the Cardies anyway?

The Cardies are Chinese -- they're reptilians who worship the state over everything while blowing a bunch of hot air about the importance of family, while they betray their family members to further their careers in the government.
Bajorans are Koreans.

I think they are cool like the Chinese :3

Why are you gae

Best or worst?

Both, there's a DMZ too

Phlox raises Tribbles as food for his wacky space lizards, much to the shock of Ensign Sexo

ds9 sucks
heres another reason. commander/captain sisko simply does not have the rank for such a prominent position in an interstellar war to determine the fate of the galaxy

Good thing he's always acting under orders from the admiralty then, retard!

Emissary of the prophets sweetie

have time travelling orb

use it to watch Dukat fuck your mother

WHERE MY DAWUH?!

the admiral would be in charge of the station, dumbass, not a fucking commander who only got promoted so he would outrank worf because sisko couldnt even handle the pushover klingons on his own

i like how they implied she could have changed the past but decided not to even though it means they could have undone the occupation and 10 millions deaths.
actually i hate that. ds9 sucks

Have you come to accept that Enterprise is in fact pretty god damn good? I mean, It's been a long road, getting from there to here.

w/e DS9 has tons of kino

its more good than bad but the whole temporal arc including xindi shit could have been done in 6 episodes

she was not in her right mind that entire episode so I give it a pass

literally every action she took was insane

My headcanon is that Kira's attempt to blow up Dukat is the incident that leads Odo to execute those innocent Bajorans.

the whole thing was preordained

even the 10 million

prophets are assholes

No, it's complete trash and the fact that you're posting coom says it all.

Personally I cannot think of a better use but in Kira’s shoes? I don’t even know anymore

Sisko could see both sides of it. Despite disagreeing with the terrorism of the Maquis and wanting to punish Eddington for betraying Starfleet and himself, he was always sympathetic to the plight of the border colonists.

Of course.
My first run through was an enjoyable experience.
RIP Trip ;_;

He loved Bajaroans too much.

Quite literally....

I know and he played it well. Any criticisms of Brook’s acting talents are greatly exaggerated

I'd have done the same.

I saw a man walking his beagle today, I began singing Faith of the Heart in my head

The Cardassian occupation and aftermath were obviously inspired by the fall of the Soviet eastern bloc and the struggle of those countries to establish themselves as self-sufficient states. I don't get how people forget this.

Oh sorry xir, here is something more your speed.

Why? Because you exposed yourself as a coom brain, utterly oblivious to the higher concepts of Star Trek? Typical Enterprise fan.

remember that episode of DS9 where kira murders a bajoran and odo cant figure it out until years later when the case heats up?
kind of stupid how easily they were able to sneak an assassin on and off the super death prison space station that was so horrible.

I think this is actually correct based on the context of the time. The Bajorans are intended to be a bunch of dumbshit Slavs trying to figure out what to do next

have time travelling orb

use it to kill James Kirk with an explosive tribble

Commanders are the ones who run space stations in TOS lorelet and also they are shown doing it in TNG

Because you exposed yourself as a coom brain

I still remember going to the big Trek convention in Vegas. It was the question and answer period after a panel. Some of the Voyager script writers were on stage, and some weirdo asked, in all seriousness, a long rambling question about the line between sexual tension and motherly affection with Janeway and Seven. You could feel the audience gradually get more and more creeped out.

Honestly, only muslims cultures make sense for Bajorans because they're so retardedly religious that they allow their entire culture to be dictated by any huckster bold enough to say they have the ear of the prophets.

also "Prophets", c'mon, obvious muslim overtones

I'll give you the same medical advice as Phlox gave the crew. Have sex

^he’s right you know

Maybe it was a post-afghan war allegory

Bajorans are tunnel jews

Cardassians are modern Israelis

Ferengi are dancing merchants

Klingons are Old Testament jews

Founders are Jon Liebowitz jews

I like how Phlox seems friendly enough, but you slowly come to learn that he is very evil.

There was a war fought in the former Yugoslavia in which the Slavs larping as Muslims fought the other Slavs zoomie

If you think about it, Dukat is kind of like Trump...

Im gay, black, and a fan of Star Trek. This is very important.

Holy fuck, quick! Somebody greenlight a Star Trek pilot for this creative genius!

How...

I'm just making a really poignant and deep statement. You have to think about it.

Erm...If you think about it, the founders are kind of like Israel o_o

Computer, load program faggot nigger son

Run subroutines "back full of shiv" and "ass full of cum"

Delete homo vibe

This is anti-Semitism, we don't allow bigotry here.

Oops sorry.
Bajor is kind of like Israel.
Is that better?

Of course! Very good.

theres only one station in TOS and its managed by a civillian.
star base 11 is run by commodore mendez
in tng starbase 78 is run by commander Quinteros which is ridiculous for such a large and important station but it is not on the front line of an interstellar war nor is it critical to adding a new member to the federation.
there would be a permenant ambassador at a minimum until the war starts and then sisko would be replaced by an admiral. no doubt about it.

In my heart of hearts I think Kira could have fixed him

That takes me back, one time there was a conversation at school about what names we had at home for the remote control at home like clicker, zapper, channel changer and when I said we called it the phaser, I was laughed at for days if not weeks

when dax splits up into all her personalities is probably the dumbest episode of DS9

I fastforwarded through that episode also the one with her and those phase people. Dax sucks.

replacing a religious icon that is probably the only reason Bajor wants to join the Federation in the first place

You're not very good at diplomacy anon

For me it's the episode where dax meets that guy on the planet that's about to get destroyed or whatever, and decides within like a single day of meeting him that she wants to go live with him and die with him.
But at least we can both agree that the dumbest episode is a dax episode.

Dax is arguably the worst character in all of Trek. She's supposed to be the ultimate badass, but always comes across as a cringe tryhard, and she never sells the genetic memory thing. Does anyone honestly believe she's lived many lives? She has an upright back, and loves to give out 'fortune cookie' wisdom, but it never rises above the level of platitude.

I wouldn't go that far.

I would rather have a character like Dax that I dislike rather than half the characters of Enterprise where I forget they even exist and don't care if they live or die at all.
I also think a lot of Dax sucking is due to Terry Farrell being a SHIT ACTRESS. She was very hot but an awful actress.

he can be reassigned to prophet duty. no need to fuck up the war effort

He didn't fuck up though, DS9 deus ex machina'd it way through multiple crisis. He even led a successful insurgency while occupied once.

You don't remove someone from the battlefield when all they do is win.

space slug enslaves host and makes them do what it wants

manipulates slave meat to accept they're not longer a person

Those things are so evil and nobody seems to care.

In the Pale Moonlight = kino

That is all

i usually give them a pass on falling in love super quick because they dont do a great job of explaining how much time has actually passed but the phase planet one is especially bad because they make it clear she is rushing the decision like a retard.
the trill reinvention was a mistake. should have kept it like it was in tng where the worm has total control and was tempered with age instead of just being a a slut over and over again because the host hasnt experienced the degeneracy 1st hand

he lost the station to the circle
he lost the station to the dominion
there was no excuse for keeping him there.

He also lost the station to a few untrained losers trying to take the parasite slug.

The literal ONLY reason the Alpha Quadrant wasn't raped to death in the ass is because he nicely asked the Prophets to close the wormhole to the Dominion. You're retarded.

tfw married to Brent Spiner

rewatching all of voyager from the start instead of just only watching the best episodes of every season.

forgot how cringe&creepy the whole kes&neelix thing was.

Why the fuck was janeway looking the other way while a that fucker was grooming a child on her ship?

when Jadzia Dax basically leans on Curzon for most of her personality it's "charming"
when Alia Atreides leans on Vladimir Harkonnen, or Leto II on that Egyptian dude, it's "abomination"
Double standard much
