"Emissary" premiered 25 years ago today.

Jaysus we're old.

I remember seeing an advert for 'The Visitor' on tv and thinking "oh there's another Star Trek besides TNG?"

 

[Fuddlemiff]

I remember seeing a cast photo before the first season was shown in the uk and being really put off by the drab looking costumes and that guy with the weird face.

I really need to rewatch it all sometime.

OOO LOTS OF COVERAGE!

‘Star Trek: Deep Space Nine’ at 25: Through the Wormhole With the Cast and Creators

 

[Fuddlemiff]

I’ll have to read the article later, but those are lovely photos.

 

[CaptainWacky]

So is Avery Brooks going to refuse to be in any of these things?

 

[whisky]

Well Sisko was the least interesting character on the show.

 

[CaptainWacky]

You found Jake more interesting than his dad?

 

[Cassie]

Will the pah wraith that possessed Keiko make an appearance?

 

[whisky]

At least Jake experienced growth.

 

[Eggs Mayonnaise]

I think I cringed bigger for Jake running around saying "My readers want to know" like a rube than I did for Data as a flotation device.

 

[CaptainWacky]

At least Jake experienced growth.

Is that a pun on him being really tall.

 

[whisky]

Yes

 

[Eggs Mayonnaise]

They should have added lifts to Nog's shows over the years -- he was never allowed to grow even to regular Ferengi adult height because Eisenberg was already fully grown.

 

[CaptainWacky]

Or stretched him with some illegal heightening device.

 

[Fuddlemiff]

Or recast him between seasons with a taller actor. With all that makeup you’d never know.

 

[CaptainWacky]

His acting was good though!

 

[Eggs Mayonnaise]

Plus they didn't have a good track record recasting grown kids (Alexander).

 

[SAUSAGEMAN]

I like Star Trek
