Are you making fun of DS9? :knuppel2:
I was just trying to share some Christmas cheer from the Gamma Quadrant.
Very well, carry on then.

No wonder they had them so far into Deep Space. :wow:
....even without a dongle......
Quark sold dongles
But were they legit?
From Quark? Of course not!
Black market dongles...teehee!
<titter>
Take all of that dongle talk back to the dongle thread. Nip along smartly, now.
Better Quark's dongle than Odo's. ^-^
DS9 was one hell of a show back then.
Even if it was a blatant ripoff (a whole copy&paste) of Babylon 5.

I never got into Babylon 5. A coworker at my last job let me borrow the full DVD set because she was a huge fan of it, but I never watched it. I did catch an episode or two here and there, but it wasn't anything that impressed me.
DS9, though, is hands down my favorite ST series.

#2 for me. TOS is still #1. :smitten:
TOS is good...I grew up watching that. Won't forget the late Saturday nights watching SNL back in the late 70s/early 80s and then TOS came on immediately after.
Not sure I liked the remastered TOS episodes, though I did get The Doomsday Machine through iTunes (the remastered version) of it, because the ships were gorgeous, even the broken ones.

DS9 was my overall favorite as well, especially the later seasons. It wasn't afraid to get messy.
DS9 also included the one episode that, for me anyway, beat TNG's outstanding 'Chains of Command' (four lights or five?). It was where we found out why Julian Bashir was so gifted- his parents had him illegally modified during childhood when they found out he was mentally deficient. It all struck very close to home for me.

Why would someone want to watch a "remastered TOS" episode?
Part of the entertainment is seeing how cheesy the props and costumes look :P
+1
I'm very glad I got the first (non-remastered) DVD sets of TOS when they were released. While the remastered episodes were very well done they just aren't the same.
I think the blu ray sets have both versions so you can choose. I also prefer the original effects to the computer enhanced ones.
