  • I love Star Trek. It's one of the most unique fandoms since it features multiple different properties in the same universe. Don't get me wrong, I love Star Wars, but something about Star Trek raises it to another level. There are so many shows that are unique in their own way. You have Star Trek T.O.S, Star Trek The Animated Series, Star Trek The Next Generation, Star Trek Voyager, Enterprise, Star Trek Discovery, Star Trek Strange New Worlds, Star Trek Prodigy, Star Trek Lower Decks, and Star Trek Picard. There is something for everyone. Fans are a little bit less toxic than other fandoms. My theory is that because there are so many shows, everyone can agree on at least one show that is good. So if someone were to, let’s say, hate Prodigy, they may like Lower Decks, or maybe they think Next Generation is the only good Star Trek show. But because there are so many series, there is a better chance to link the fan love. I have met many Trekers in my life and have yet to meet someone I have nothing in common with.
    One Star Trek show that I loved that tended to divide fans was Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. In it, Avery Brooks starred as Commander Benjamin Sisco. Unlike other Trek main characters, he wasn't a captain. Rather, he was a commander struggling with grief (and rage) after his wife was killed in an attack orchestrated by none other than Captain Picard when the Borg assimilated him as Locutus. The show centred partly around him being a single parent to his son, Jake, as well as his adventures commanding Deep Space Nine. It had a tremendous cast of characters, including René Auberjonois as the shape-shifter, Odo, Nana Vistor as Bajoran resistance veteran, Kira, Terry Farrell as Jadzia Dax, Alexander Siddig as Dr. Julian Bashir, Armin Shimerman's Quark, and many more. It even had some TNG holdovers like Colm Meaney as Chief O'Brien, and (later) Michael Dorn's Worf.
    In this episode, we dig into how the show initially divided fans, but in hindsight is held up by many as one of the best Trek shows of all time.

      Can you do Sam Raimi’s forgotten sci-fi gem, M.A.N.T.I.S? That show represented black culture and was the first black superhero on a primetime network. It was way ahead of its time, something that FOX completely dropped the ball canceling the series in 1995.

      Don't lie, you obviously never saw it. So many phrases used I've heard make me think you either plagiarized a human or asked an AI to write it. Watch the retrospective 'What we Left Behind ' to learn how to pronounce names, then just embarrassingly delete this. For one thing, some in show relationships were developed AFTER seeing actor's chemistry. O'Brien and Bashir, Kira and Odo, just to name two. And how is Sisko your second favorite captain? He's THE best! More depth, development, and his story is the only one shared with us from birth to end completely. Which is all predetermined by the prophet Sarah. He talked the prophets into stopping 2400 Dominion ships coming into our quadrant which nobody else could have done.

    The Changelings being the Founders and leaders of the Dominion was DS9s answer to TNGs "Best of Both Worlds" cliffhanger. Odo meeting the female Changeling at the end of season 2 with a loving "Welcome home," then the reveal of the Vorta and Jem Hadar working for them in the premiere of season 3 was a masterful rugpull that has rarely been topped since.
    One demerit in the vid for no mention of "In the Pale Moonlight" though. 9/10

    DS9 was absolutely divisive in the Trek fandom for many years, that's true. It was a darker, grittier Trek with many shades of gray and that polarized the fanbase.

All the awkward weirdness in so much of the 1st and 2nd season went away, and was replaced with confident storytelling as they figured out what worked and how they were going to tell their story. I liked DS9 from the beginning, but I'm not going to pretend that seasons 1 and 2 weren't full of clunkiness, or that something like _Move Along Home_ was ever a good idea; they were still struggling with the idea of "what whacky new thing came through the Wormhole this week?! Aliens with a magic children's board game!" But by season 3 they got their stuff together. They would still have occasional silly fun episodes, but that's a tradition with _Star Trek._ The episode _Trials and Tribbilations_ is something that every _Star Trek_ fan should watch.

    What I love about Star Trek is that is helps instantly identify people worthy of befriending. No matter which show a person likes (well, maybe except nuTrek, because it's a Star Wars ripoff rather than continuation of Roddenbery's vision) and no matter what their views on singular aspects of life are - you are guaranteed that when you stumble upon a trekkie, you stumble upon a fundamentally... good person at heart. They might not be angels; they might not be perfect; they might have huge flaws of character - but in the end, you can be sure that they will do the right thing.
    I have a friend that often poses as a tough guy. I treated him as a good buddy for a long time, but at one point I discovered that he secretly loves Voyager. He hid that from his manly-men buddies that he lived among, but when I found out he was so happy to share his softer side with someone! He had a tough life, resorted to dealing drugs at one point even, but there were so many times we drank beer in the woods at night and he would tell me how he wishes humanity to be as good as it is portrayed in Star Trek, treat people well, and so on. We are bonded for life since I discovered he's a secret trekkie.
    Edit: the further I watch the video the worse ot gets unfortunately. Mispronounciations, wrong facts, and what thel hell is this all talk about sexuality? Seems like 10% of the video is devoted to genital preferences of the characters. Is this really THAT important to modern audiences??

    04:37 and there it is lol. I was waiting for it and it came a lot sooner than I thought. Some people like to sweep it under the rug...I do lol. They're both good shows in their own right and I'm glad you kept it short and sweet rather than dwelling on it. As for DS9, I felt the first season was drab and boring, but I think that's unavoidable for a first season of ANY show. It takes time to settle into it and start to appreciate the characters. It is by far my favorite Star Trek series, next to TNG. The character building is amazing though and I really enjoyed it when they brought in Worf. I really appreciated how they turned Worf from a TNG slapstick joke to a unstoppable DS9 warrior too lol - about time.
    I'll admit I didn't like DS9 in my youth (at least not until season 3), but i learned to appreciate it over the years now that I've matured. I wish they continued to make Trek like this...but nowadays the series has gone so far off the rails, it's unrecognizable. I hate when people bring in "Lower Decks" and try to act like it's canon. It's a frigin mockery of Star Trek and nothing more...to say that anything that happens in that show is canon is like saying Family Guy is a serious sitcom...give me a break. Anything and everything Star Trek from the 90's verse died after Voyager, sorry.
    Otherwise, I make it a point to rewatch DS9 at least once a year and somehow still appreciate it just the same. Once I get to the final season, I start to get bummed out knowing it's almost over again...plus I didn't really like the ending. When are they going to rerelease it in HD?? C'mon already, I don't care if it's too expensive!

    DS9 is my favourite Trek. Sisko for me is the best Captain, a family man, passionate but also cerebral. I really loved Kira too, her strength and fiery personality. Pushing and pulling against Sisko in the early days and her determination during the Dominion War. O'Brien is the best though, hand he has such a wholesome relationship with Keiko. As you said they have their ups and down but always stayed strong.
    The regular Cardassian Guests had so much presence, Garak, Dukat and Damar.
    For the record, my favourite episode is The Darkness and the Light
