I've always been surprised that he isn't a more high profile actor. He was AMAZING as Sisko, especially in the episode "Far Beyond the Stars", which I still reckon is the best DS9 Episode ever.

Guest c4evap Posted July 2, 2006 Share Posted July 2, 2006 The more DS9 I watch, the better I like Sisko. If I remember correctly, he played a rather shady character called Hawk in the TV show Spenser (for hire). c4 B) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tenebrae Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 Uh... yes... I know there was SOME character he played who was bald and had a goatee. That's why he starts out with the micro-fro and clean shaven - because they were worried if he started out bald and goatted, he'd be indentified with the previous character. As I've said though, he's a lightweight compared to Stewart or Spiner. He's not really all that great at the finer nuiances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest c4evap Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 Here's what http://www.starshipdatalink.net/defiant.html had to say on this subject: Since 2371, the Defiant was one of the most powerful warships in the Alpha Quadrant. In 2373, Lieutenant Commander Worf commanded the Defiant in an attack against a Borg cube heading to Earth. Being badly damaged Worf would have rammed the Defiant into the cube if the USS Enterprise NCC-1701-E had not arrived at the battle when it did. The crew of the Defiant beamed aboard the Enterprise, and the Defiant went into spacedock for repairs and returned to DS-9. By the end of 2373 the Defiant had gone into production. The USS Valiant NCC-74210, and two other unidentified Defiant-class ships have been seen in active duty. The USS Defiant was destroyed by the Breen while at the Chin'toka System in 2375. The Defiant was quickly replaced with the USS São Paulo NCC-75633, a slightly updated and modified Defiant-class starship assigned to DS-9 on stardate 52861. Captain Sisko was given special dispensation by the Chief of Starfleet Operations to rename the São Paulo to Defiant and remains stationed at DS-9 under the command of Colonel Kira. In "What You Leave Behind", the hull markings for the USS São read 'USS Defiant NX-74205' because of the extensive use of stock footage used in this episode. Even if there was time to paint the hull markings, the registry should have remained as NCC-75633 or at least NCC-74205-A. And from Ex Astris Scientia: Known ships USS Defiant NX-74205 USS Valiant NCC-74210 USS São Paulo NCC-75633 c4 B) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tenebrae Posted July 4, 2006 Share Posted July 4, 2006 Was originally going to be the last line in the show. It would have made me laugh so much that I cried, tears of joy. You know "It's a trap!" Is really a metaphor for human life. That and my rampant alcoholism. I could really use a drink. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
