I... I'm sorry.

Which was fine...for a hotel lobby or waiting room.Yeah, the 1701-D's exterior was quite unattractive.
...then there was the interior...
That was very strange to me. Crusher's choices seemed very odd, and highly reactionary to everything in her life.Just watched PIC Season 3, I wish Jack Crusher II had died on the Borg ship
And naming your son after your dead husband and not his biological father or family surname of Howard is weird Beverly Crusher
Here's a bit of controversy... Bajor made the right call in "Sanctuary".
Don't get me wrong, I've no issue with immigration when it's done right. But Bajor, at that time, was a devastated mess that could barely take care of its own citizens. However, the real justification lay in the Federation's presence and total willingness to render aid. The Federation was an immense polity with nearly infinite recources at its disposal, including whole uninhabited planets. Essentially, Bajor was just letting someone else address the problem.
Right. I can sort of understand Haneek's behavior at the end... anyone who'd just lost a child can be forgiven that. But, she was acting pissy before the accident, too.The Skreeans were pretty terrible in the end. It was basically a case of, “Hey, we understand your plight. We’re here to help you. Here, you can have any planet you want except that one.”

Of course if we get into all that, we could also point out that all of Bajor's problems could be easily solved if they just joined the Federation.
That's why DS9 should have had an eighth season, to have that finally happen. As well as other loose ends.
In any case, I wonder why things were that bad to begin with. For instance, in "Rivals", when Quark was talking about the orphans not having blankets. Maybe the Federation couldn't easily address a global famine, but you can't tell me that they couldn't have handled a few thousand blankets!
It was Ira Steven Behr's aim that Bajor would NOT join the Federation.That's why DS9 should have had an eighth season, to have that finally happen. As well as other loose ends.
It was celebrated (as someone here has said) as "channeling" Kelley. Which I thought was not needed and not accurate in any event. It's like when everyone said Christian Slater was some sort of reincarnation of Jack Nicholson. Maybe if you had only watched people doing impressions of Nicholson. Or Kelley.Did you have a problem with Urban's McCoy or do you just think his performance was over-celebrated?
Because the series ended when the war did. An 8th season, postwar, would have addressed that. Plus more Ezri development, and maybe they could have let her relationship with Bashir develop instead of just "happen". TNG and VOY were out of gas, and ENT was cut down too early... but DS9 still had potential for new directions.It was Ira Steven Behr's aim that Bajor would NOT join the Federation.
Yes, but the lead writer's goal was that 7 seasons, 8 seasons, or 15, Bajor was NOT going to join the Federation and heBecause the series ended when the war did.

Why would it be so important to not have Bajor join the Federation?
(Don't get me wrong, I don't need to see Bajor join, myself. An open end would be fine with me. It's just that I don't see any point in making sure it won't join, either.)
There's also another thing to consider... the Occupation. A lot of Bajorans could also not be keen on the idea of accepting too much help because they might feel there is a price tag attached.
It was Ira Steven Behr's aim that Bajor would NOT join the Federation.
I think it is admirable for a world that went through what it did in 50 years of Occupation to be able to stand on its own without the need to rely on or be a part of a greater galactic power.
That sends an inspiring message... going through all the horrible stuff but still manage to stand up, dust yourself off, and build yourself back up. On your own. (For the most part.) It sends a message of independence, and the ability to take care of yourself and your people without having to rely on others.
Behr got a lot right. He developed his characters, even the ones who were starting to slip into the background. And he brought background characters into the foreground, too. And his promotions were exactly as they should have been.Yes, but the lead writer's goal was that 7 seasons, 8 seasons, or 15, Bajor was NOT going to join the Federation and hesawsees that as admirable.
