    Yes, he could have been a lot worse. I think I might have liked him more if he hadn't worn such terrible clothes. It's hard to do serious acting in a romper suit.

    That's the reason he's always really annoyed me, far too much of a stereotype.

    If they actually had the guts to give us the steamy Hayes/Reed romance we all know was going on then it would've been something interesting with the character.

    Oh I gave up on "they" actually doing any of that long ago. I do it just fine in my mind.

    Also while I know you are right I also extrapolated Reed out of that into a much more nuanced character in my mind as well.

    I'm surprised (but happy :) ) Than no one mentioned Ezri yet. People intent to talk badly about her character. I guess i'll never know why. I love her.

    I don't look like any of my list. I mean it's good that I don't look like Quark (even though I think he is hot) but still..

    Yeah! As much as i liked Jadzia, i never felt she was a good character... She never got my attention, and i actually find her quite annoying and unrealistic... I mean... She was just "to perfect" for someone who needed do deal with 7 lifetimes... Ezri, on the other hand, was AWAY better, more believable, more challenging, and more beautiful (in my humble opinion) :).

    I like Ezri!

    I must admit that I didn't like that Jadzia was killed off and the actress kicked out or whatever.

    But I like Ezri. My only objection is that she shouldn't have been a Dax but a different character. The way they came up with this plot was like pouring salt in the wounds of the Jadzia fans.

    I must also admit that I didn't watch DS9's last season until a couple of years after it was aired, due to stupid politics of one of my TV channels. In fact, I didn't watch that season until last year on DVD so the worst storm had faded then.

    Well I only did one watch through of ENT. Teacake, I'll keep an eye out for Reed when I do a rewatch!! I did enjoy a few episodes with him, but for some reason I was left with the feeling that a few of the characters were a bit on the dull side. But I will definitely watch again and give it another shot. :D :D

    She was kicked out?! I thought she left voluntarily?

    Dude, why would they kick out an actress after 6 years? That does not even make sense.

    If they did, I am seriously disappointed with the producers.

    Her contract was up and she had a better paying job offer, with better billing. It was a professional decision to leave instead of renewing for a one year contract.

    She was on Becker for six (six?) years.

    In the lap of squalor I assure you.
    I saw Tony in a sitcom where Mr Todd played an exaggerated version of himself.

    He kept talking in the first person.

    Except he didn't call himself "Tony".

    It was "Candyman wants a beer!" "Candyman wants lasagne!" "Candyman want's your girlfriend!"
