    Til Death Do Us Part is decent enough as part of the final arc, but it's one of the weakest ones remaining looking at it by itself.

    "Treachery, Faith, and the Great River" .... Odo is a god and Nog is a master trader...

    You lend him an old truck and he comes back with a limousine...

    This raises one question though: How were they able to escape in a runabout in "By Inferno's Light" given that the Jem ships can literally fly circles around them?

    Maybe the Jem'Hadar have a standing order to let DS9 runabouts escape if the alternative is destroying them in case Odo is on board.


    I remove What you leave Behind. I didn't like how the war ended just like that and how they squeezed the resolution to the Winn/Dukat/Pah Wraiths plot in at the end, the pacing felt off. And while I wasn't a fan of the Kira/Odo relationship the way it ended was also weird, he pines for her all these years and he's like "Goodbye forever, don't come visiting me"

    All I remember of it were:

    * cost cutting use via a real and equally empty baseball stadium
    * Vulcans being illogically emotional for no reason other than what you said - caricaturing and (possibly unintentional) character assassination
    * it's the "jump the shark" episode, but thankfully it's in the final season

    Removing Changing Face Of Evil.

    The whole Dukat/Winn plot just didn’t work.

    Removing "Strange Bedfellows"... The image of Winn and Dukat in bed together will haunt me forever.:ack:

    I'll make The Dogs of War the winner. I liked the way all the plot threads were starting to wrap up. Mostly, it's just more memorable than When It Rains for me.

    Not sure. What does the "line through your name" thing mean?

    My understanding is that it means you've deleted your account.

    Might it mean someone else has? He was in disagreement with at least one of the moderators.

    3000+ posts, it's inevitable that you're going to piss someone off, and some of the mods here get triggered pretty easily.

    Is that so? :vulcan:

    In any event, a line through a username means the person has been banned.
