Not liking it

[DonIago]

We just watched "Battleground" or whatever it's called last time around, and it's kind of ironic that such an otherwise unmemorable episode is responsible for one of the most significant arcs that will run through the series.

I like the concept of "Move Along Home," if not the execution.

The ryhme in that may have been silly, but it gave me a good laugh.

And "Captive Pursuit".

One of my favourite episodes of Star Trek.

The scene of Sisko, Kira, Dax and Bashir hop scotching while singing that Alamarain song still makes me laugh when I see it

I've been thinking about this, and I've decided that if that episode had come much later in the series (granted, the 'first contact from the GQ' aspect would need to be retooled), it might have been received better.

As it is you have a bunch of characters you're just getting to know who are already being placed in an undignified situation that makes them hard to take seriously.

TNG had episodes like this as well, but I think they did a better job of avoiding putting their characters through silly hoops until we'd gotten to know them better.

Actually, having an episode like this shortly after Eddington joined the crew might have been ideal.

Unless you count The Naked Now, TNG very first ep after the pilot.

I would rather say in that episode we got to know too much of them. Particularly Tasha.

I'm only going to tell you this just once, it Never happened.
