Care to Talk About...

What's your favorite Star Trek series? Favorite episodes overall? Favorite character?

On another note, When I was at work for one of my last days (I had two jobs) they were having this discussion:

"It's so stupid we've just got a new line in. And apparently __________ is getting some new line in. Cardassians."

Me: ... Cardassians? Like Star Trek?

"No, not like Star Trek. I don't know what you're talking about. Dork!" (Affectionately, of course.)

I'm thinking they might have had the name wrong!

My favorite series is DS9 and my favorite character is Garak. My favorite episodes are The Wire, In Purgatory's Shadow/By Inferno's Light, and Improbable Cause/The Die Is Cast.

My favorite episodes all have excellent dialogue, exquisite acting, and Garak. :0)

DS9 as a whole is my favorite because it features the ongoing religion and politics of a particular place.

Garak is my favorite for a number of reasons. He gets some absolutely great dialogue, and he's wonderfully performed by an actor with a lot of presence. I like how queer-coded he is, and I love it when he's camp. :0) I like his interactions with everyone, particularly Bashir -- I like how he questions things about our art and culture that don't usually get questioned. It's interesting to see how his culture has shaped him.

I like Garak too, and Bashir's pretty awesome. But I'll also be honest and say usually I really do like Spock and Data...

I think my favorite episode may have been Charlie X, as weird as it seems. I mean, they rescue him but the condition is he can never be with people? Ever? They end at his life being an unresolvable torturous existence and I kept thinking about how awful his situation was and whether they were right to actually let him go alive, heh.
