i am a very late bloomer to ST. i watches TOS and loved it; i startrd up TNG about a month ago.
im in season 3 episode 4 and councillor troy hasnt died yet. i hate her with a fiery passion for ruining what seems to be a really good show. my friends have confirmed she doesnt die and told me to leave TNG behind and move on to DS9.
i guess i get DS9 tomorrow.
I’m going to be the serpent in the grass and say give Babylon 5 a go before DS9. The first season will feel slow because the show is structured like a novel; exposition, rising action, climax, falling action, conclusion. There are small things like newspaper headers that hint towards future developments, and every main character undergoes a major arc. I enjoy DS9, but it’s never felt as cohesive as B5 to me. You may throw your stones now.
B5 definitely best star trek. Ds9 or lower decks a close second.
It’s such a weird choice to put “ships councilor” on the bridge.
All the high-maintenance staff are on the bridge.
Someone had to protect Wesley from Picard.
i can imagine the unimportant meetings that werent part of the show... you know like routine runs.
"i am captain jean luc picard of the USS Enterprise. to my right is my number one, commander riker. to my front left is my number two, lieutenant commander data... as opposed to this random lady sitting next to me who has nothing to do with leadership on the bridge."
[everyone glares at troy]
Her character does get a bit better in later seasons. She even starts wearing a real uniform.
