O'Brien is a real contender for best main character of all Treks.
Tuvok could be a contender as well, and EMH.
I think the real question is who the worst character is though, there are a lot of options from each series. My pick is Torres from Voyager or of course Wesley or Troi from TNG.
Garak is the real best character but he's technically just a recurring guest star, but he definitely brings out the best in Bashir

>My pick is Torres from Voyager
That's definitely true, every episode the writers seemed to be alternating between teenage girl and sassy black genius who don't need no man.

Neelix comes close but his interactions with Tuvok saved him, barely though.

Best star trek character ever created coming through.

Wow...A bit racist there playing into stereotypes Ira

JUST
SACK
PAT

How come he was in a bunch of TNG and Voyager episodes but only one DS9?

Q was a mistake.

DS9 had so it didn't really need Q brand sense of whimsy.

>Well, it's nice to be together again. I was at Starfleet Medical for a year. I missed about 2 inches of him
What did she mean by this?

Personally I think Neelix has some great episodes, and showed a lot of character development over the course of Voyager that he doesn't really get much credit for. I definitely agree that his relationship with Tuvok was one of the high points of his character though, and of Voyager's cast.
I love Quark, and even more I love Quark and Odo. Quark episodes are always good too, but the thing about Quark is I feel like he's replaceable. He's great, but not essential to the show. You could easily have him as a side character and not part of the main cast and it wouldn't change the show very much.

Watching DS9 for the first time, I've reached season 4 and Worf just showed up.

The Klingon attack was pretty cool also I like how they mention the Enterprise for a bit.

Quark's antics always make me kek

>Top qek

Tuvok is under appreciated as fuck

youtube.com/watch?v=nXtjlHmZiQI

>It's a "Picard kills Tuvok for being black" episode

>Quark and Odo
best characters and best actors

And I think Quark is essential to the flavor of the show, part of what sets DS9 apart from other Trek shows. They took the "mess hall/ten forward" character and actually made it into something brilliant, a feat no other Star Trek series accomplished.

The federation is root beer.

>what are you you? how do nigger vulcans exist? aren't they all supposed to be bronze Egyptian types? Answer me you imposter!

>nerve-pinching a Vulcan

Pure poetry.

>Best character thread
>No mention of the actual best
May The Founders forgive us

It tastes like toothpaste?

Really would have liked to see what would happen if that good Weyoun was allowed to live and switched to sides to the Federation. Might have been too much of an asspull though to build him up so much then completely do a 180 with his character.

...

DS9 writers were excellent at making characters you hate. This dude. that girl who ran a Amish colony. Winn, the female changeling, early kira.

War crimes?

How can there be war crimes when there hasn't been a war?

we wuz vulcans and shit

If Miles was such a great character, why was he too embarrassed to let anyone on DS9 know he was a cello playing fag lord?

Cardassian Kira is cute

CUTE

Keiko made him give it up because it gave her headaches

Keiko was a cunt

he actually mentions it in DS9.

Neat!

This fertile female crawls into the Jeffries tube, slaps your ass and insults your isolinear rod configuration. What do?

>the 1st violin is gone
what did he mean by this?

go back home to my cuck wife who never lets me have fun and cry myself to sleep after changing Mollys shitty diaper

Thank you Irish terrorism.

They were tuning up, Data was playing first violin and explaining to Picard why he was about to suck

When was that?

do they not have Aleve in the future? Why did he marry that bitch again? She must be a freak in the sack for him to put up with all her shit

>do they not have Aleve in the future?

Apparently, they did an entire episode where Crusher freaks out because Picard is having a headache

fucking KEK

Was this intentional?

What does Quark smell like?

Gay porn story?

Do we ever even see doctors prescribing medication in Star Trek? Was there some kind of pill addiction crisis or something?

They inject it through those all-purpose neck stabby things

>implying trek is anything but trash

Reminder

WHO ORDERED THE RAKTAJINO

Dabo sluts, bloodwine, and latinum

>It's a those darn kids are up to their usual mischief at the shopping mall in outer space episode

DS9 sucked

>Star Wars children have to go back

The first two seasons of DS9 are worse than the first two seasons of TNG.
Voyager's first two seasons suffer from the fucking Kayzon, but other episodes are quite good.

>The first two seasons of DS9 are worse than the first two seasons of TNG.
Nah, early DS9 is far better than early TNG. You had GOAT episodes like Whispers, Necessary Evil, Duet etc. Yeah there were many dull episodes but compared to the shitfest that is TNG season 1 they were pure gold

>Jake

Who the fuck okayed all hideous clothes he wore?

yeah because they were such a huge part of the show

Come back when you've made it past season 1 you pleb

>Watching Stargate
>O'Brien appears

YU DUNNUH WANT TAH FECK WITH TEH GENII YE BASTARDIN TAU'RI FECKERS!

You're off it, my man. The first two season of DS9 are miles ahead of the first two seasons of TNG.

I don't understand how people can use the excuse, "it gets better" for TNG, but shit endlessly on ds9 for having a couple of Jake and Nog episodes. I can't defend Jake, but Nog's character arc is one of the best in all of Star Trek.

>Captain. I recommend a full spread of K'Ehleyr. Maximum yield!

I believe that the great episodes of early DS9 are much better than the best episodes of early TNG, but TNG was pioneering in its genre and execution in that era, so maybe I'm a bit soft in it for that reason.
Duet really is one of the best episodes of all Trek, though.

youtube.com/watch?v=edflm7Hh3hs

No

>The first two seasons of DS9 are worse than the first two seasons of TNG.
The consensus is """no"""

>Shades of Gray

Don't be that guy

Watching DS9 for the first time. Halfway through S5.

Was Jadzia always this quirky and cute? I remember not really caring for in the beginning cause she was always so serious. But now she's always smiley and joking around. Was it the actress adapting to the role or did the writers gradually change the character? I remember reading about some tension between the her and the production staff or something. Anyways, I'd plow her ass.

Even if you ignore Shades of Gray, the average rating for seasons 1 and 2 of DS9 is higher than TNG, both on a season by season or overall basis

Worst girl on the show. Especially in trails and tribblations.

>DUDE KIRK I'M GOING TO RUIN AROUND THE ENTERPRISE LIKE IT'S FUCKING NOTHING HAHA FUCK THE TIME LINE

...

She was a legitimately terrible actress when they hired her, she learned to emote better as the show went on.

I bet she sucks a cock like nobodies business tho.

Why did they redo the DS9 intro music in Season 4? The S1 to S3 music was GOAT. Then they changed it to something objectively worse. The brass players are terrible.

S1
youtu.be/2TsMyLt2BTM

S4
youtu.be/DsOE73pxpys

They also updated the visuals for the opening, and introduced another character borrowed from TNG

They were having ratings issues in season 3 and decided to revamp the show to garner more interest

Who should play the Ferengi in the new Trek show? Pic related is my vote

Isn't it exactly the same recording but sped up?

The TNG blu-ray's didn't make enough money.
We will never see DS9 in HD.

They didn't even know what the Ferengi looked like until TNG

I mean Enterprise

I mean, who am I kidding, it will happen and they'll chose Felicia Day or something.

>We will never see DS9 in HD.
Not the show, anyway

That's why vulcans need so much mental discipline, to keep their inner savage nigger impulses at bay.

LITERALLY kino.

>Old man! haha
She was an awful actor, and her character development never worked. Her friendship with Sisko was awkward and unconvincing. She was also stupid for leaving the show, it was the height of her career.

Yes. Yes she is.

Just finished watching DS9 and what a ride it was, best aliens (Dukat, Quark, Odo, Garrak) and comfy episodes in the series, i really liked it. Though it was a bit of a letdown to what happened to Dukat in the end.

Was Bashir gay for O'Brien? Pr was ot just bromance?

bromance.

And a well developed one at that since O'brien hated him at first.

It was always weird on Voyager when existing foes would catch up with the ship, even though it should be running an almost direct uninterrupted path at high warp.

>tfw you can never have an irish buddy to play darts and alamo miniatures with a pint of guinness after a long holodeck session of wwii battle for britain

Are they even in it? I was under the impression that this will be a short mini-series that is told from the prospective of some lower level officer. You know, like one of those special episodes about Data's diary.

Was O'Brien a Prod or a Taig?

Why is Voyager so painful to watch, im barely through season 2 and the only interesting character is the doctor while the other cast is so wooden and blank it hurts to watch, and the fucking poor mans klingons the Kazons are the lamest race ive seen with their bad wigs

And isnt Neelix a pedophile considering how Kes' race only lives till 8-9 years old and shes barely 1?

There's an old saying on Talax: if it can walk, it's good to pork

>be in charge of tactical
>make mostly rational tactical recommendations (like a 90/10 split)
>everyone ignores you at best or is offended by you wanting to protect them at worst

The writers couldn't decide how they wanted to characterize the captain.
They were constrained by being trapped on the island with no hope of rescue.
Episodes that were well grounded were too grounded, and episodes that were weird were too weird.
They decided that they needed a cheesecake character instead of more interesting writing.

The character never expressed an opinion but his accent and name suggest a straight up Taig.

Threads imply the actor was an IRA member but it's hard to say if it's memes or not.

I'm finishing up DS9 right now and I want to ask what people think of Morn? Does the joke work or is it trying to hard to find a quirk? Is his running gag a little too tongue in cheek or does it work for most people? Sometimes I think it works and other times they belabor it to being annoying.

Fun Fact: Morn actually did have lines, loads of them, but they were all cut. That's where the joke came from, it was probably funnier to the writers than it is to us, but it never bothered me.

I like him, never felt like they forced it too hard

Is this accurate?

I put zero thought into it.

>Hello Jeremy, How are you? Are you frightened?
>No. Well, a little, sir
>Of course, these are frightening things that are happening, but we won't let anyone harm you
>Counsellor, why don't you take the boy to my quarters?

Ignoring the "wow, that's neat" factor, I still think having Kubrick produce an episode was a mistake

Just watched that episode for the first time tonight, damn. The intro was really comfy. I could watch a 45 minute episode of Picard just doing ship stuff all day.

Dude, the guy who plays Morn is fucking insane. Google him. He probably came up with the change in the first place.

AHAHA WHAT THE FUCK

About to finish the first season of TNG.

>that strange feeling when you realize you'd marry any of the female leads on this show
>especially Dr. Crusher
>I'd spoil her rotten

she has zero personality tho

Funny thing is that he turned out about 40% right on those recommandations

So do you

>hot milf
>intelligent
>well-mannered and respectful
>comfy as fuck
>probably awesome to cuddle with
...but you'd rather have a bitch with "personality," is that right?

He's coming, he's coming, he's coming...

>get your faggot space AIDS away from me manlet

Did Riker go too far?

I'd rather have someone who didn't act like a plank of wood with red hair. I'd fuck her sure, but marry her? No thanks

someone took the time to make that picture?

someone took the time to make this

no data no

is that supposed to be Lwaxana grabbing Riker's nuts?

At least we got Ezri out of it. Who is a mega qt.

And her mirror version is even better

>tfw seven will never order you to take your clothes off

Hey buddy I think you got the wrong holodeck. The Bajoran-Cardassian BDSM orgy is two doors down.

Yeah they revamped the show in a good way. Voyager just did the lazy thing an added sex appeal even if seven was a decent character.

Post your obscure waifus

mmmm, Madchen

She aged beatifully

nice

How about we send out a neuron pulse from the forward deflector whilst running a full level 2 diagnostic and at the same time wank off the lateral sensor array, lads?

>it's really him
Oh, how the mighty have fallen.

Some days I like Voyager.

But then other days I read a post like this and I remember to hate Voyager.

Oh aye? cheeky cunt wiv the fookin orders over 'ere, I'll get ya down to the planet there ye fucker.

This is now a Data thread

>tfw no tasha gf

>tfw you start watching TNG and finally realize why so many old trekkies despise the new movies
this is actually really good, i'm surprised i didn't start watching this sooner

Banging

We hate the TNG movies too.

my main beef with the new movies is how they're like a pop culture parody of the original series, with all the "memes" people made up since the 1960s

It was the 90s

Not true

Generations, Insurrection and Nemesis are secretly kinos hidden underneath shit.

First Contact is the best Trek movie by far you faggots

>First Contact is the best Trek movie

best for my dick

Actually... the fact is... you're wrong.
>crowd bursts into thunderous applause

By the mid '90s that shit was way out of style.

Generations could have been so much more epic than it was.

What went wrong?

what went wrong is that paramount made them write write and film a movie in barely 3 months
while at the same time finishing TNG and starting on VOY

Why does that Gap ad have the Joker and Robin?

Those pants look comfy as fuck famigo

Why was there never any gay male kissing or relationships? I thought star trek was progressive

No, it's always been sexist and racist.
