Was alright, it had some great scenes with Cirroc Lofton, but the rest of it was a mish-mash.

The "let's change the hologram's settings to make her drunk" bit was silly, the continued pissing match with the War Academy is childish and boring, the Ake/Kelrec back and forth wasn't interesting and just plain goofy. The tone was all over the board. I loved Tawny Newsome as Mariner, but her Dax was just meh. I did hear Mariner's voice a couple times.

It feels like Sam's people have already made up their minds about organics. They've programmed her to be this fresh, smiling, curious personality, but they apparently have no qualities outside of pure logic.

This is probably the weakest one so far in my opinion.
 
This would have been the perfect place for the Willie Mays card, but I assume they couldn't get (or didn't want to pay for) the rights to re-use it.

Instead of this odd "fan card"(?) of Sisko that obscures his face, they should have subbed in the Buck Bokai card from back in the day. The original version, so that Greg Jein would get a posthumous cameo.
 
The sets, wardrobe anc technology are the issue. The new people running star trek had mo idea what they have done. They couldn't even give yhe enterprise the proper viewscreen on snw. Now on the 32nd century their "viewscreen window" is the same as the Enterprise one from 800 years ago. It ridiculous that the design team doesn't understand this.
Not a bit of this is important and most of it is wrong.

Who's going to tell them that isn't Sisko's original basbeball?
 
I was thinking those three that are laying flat on the table itself
I knew what you meant. :bolian:

but I guess not if one of them is green and one of them seems like it's just completely blank. lol
That's why I put up the pic. :)

If you mean me, I know it's not the original. I have zero problems with a well-intentioned and good effort replica such as the baseball. Someone went to a fair effort to get it to look very close, and I appreciate that.
 
There's debate that Kovich/Daniels' baseball on his history shelf in his office isn't Sisko's original in-universe but one of many he owned, not the one on his office desk for the longevity of DS9.

all of them also appear to be translucent.

There's a shot of the HD version of Sacrifice of Angels made for the Doc on one of the monitors. So at least one frame of the HD remaster is canon ;)

That image of the land Sisko bought that is in in Jake's book, is also taken from DS9.
