I'm probably in a minority where I preferred tng to ds9, and I identify ds9 as the "darker grittier trek" that led to the long vacuum of trek. It was extraordinary, but like a lot of outliers, I think it gave the studios the wrong message about what people wanted.

Okay, but do you prefer TNG’s Ferengi episodes, or TNG Ferengi episodes?

I can tell from your shoes that you're a person of refinement and affluence.

Yeah, but we got Star Trek alumni Clint Howard in the Enterprise Ferengi episode....

Let's throw some respect on the Enterprise one.

TNG's "The Battle" is an outlier in that it's one of the franchise's best episodes in spit of being a TNG Ferengi episode. Otherwise TNG Ferengi episodes are not good but even if they were it would be unfair to make them try to stand up to Quark centered episodes. Quark's is the Star Trek sitcom spinoff we deserved but never got.
