What are your controversial Star Trek opinions?

"Are you okay, Dad?"
"I am now, Jake. I am NOW."

:adore:

The way Avery delivers that line sends me over the edge one last time. There’s so much emotion in it those six short words. If he hadn’t delivered it in such a way the ending probably would have fallen flat; it would have felt like a complete reset. But Sisko clearly remembers everything that has happened.
 
Actually, old Jake told Sisko that they had to be together when Jake died or Sisko would end up untethered and lost for eternity. He was not only saving his dad's life, but giving his younger self a second chance of having his dad around longer.
That's true. Granted if Sisko had failed to not be hit by the beam when he bounced back the entire cycle would start over, only Sisko would know about all of this from the start. I wonder what would have happened if during this second loop Sisko killed himself when in the regular universe so Jake wouldn't someday kill himself.
 
Okay. The music in "The Way to Eden" is fun and actually not bad, even for made-for-TV hippie tunes written and filmed in 1968. :)
For purpose, it's great music. Stepping out to Eden illustrates the dangerous naivete of the group, innocent but misguided, but then rearranged to show their dangerous turn.
 
I liked Bajoran politic episodes on DS9. I know lots of people didn't and I think they were forced to do fewer over them in later seasons but I always enjoyed them and I liked that stuff from the first 2 years when Bajor was still recovering from the Occupation and stuff like that.

The Visitor wouldn’t work as well as it does without Sisko coming out of it carrying the weight of what happened.
