Deep Space Nine really had some good dialog

[silverpig]

I skipped Enterprise. It wasn't even called Star Trek like all the others were. I think it's best we leave it be.

The first two seasons were crap. The third season was good, but wasn't Star Trek. The last season was pretty fantastic, but it got cut off there

I'd put DS9 over B5, though I enjoyed them both.

However, B5 does have one of the greatest moments in sci-fi tv history (IMIO, of course):

Spoiler

B5 was about to get their asses handed to them by a second wave of EarthForce ships. Four more jumpgates open. Sheridan sighs in disbelief thinking it's the end. Zoom in on Delenn...

Delenn: This is Ambassador Delenn of the Minbari. Babylon 5 is under our protection. Withdraw...or be destroyed.

Drake: Negative. We have authority here. Do not force us to engage your ship.

Delenn: Why not? Only one human captain has ever survived battle with the Minbari fleet. He is behind me. You are in front of me. If you value your lives, be somewhere else.

EarthForce turns tail.

Yeah bitches! go on back to your "president" (last line is reaction; not part of show)

I <3 DS9. Best sci-fi I've watched overall I think. Has some of my favorite episodes of any show ever (In the Pale Moonlight for example).

Every single character I wanted to see more story about. They were all very interesting and had great dynamics.

Garak was hilarious and quite awesome. He is kind of like Q in that respect. I love the "never tell the same lie twice" quote too.

That was a great episode as well.

Deep Space Nine would have been better if Avery Brooks and Nana Visitor weren't two of worst actors to ever be on television. Brooks had the image right, but when he was trying to be dramatic he was just completely over the top and hammy.

Sisko sucked. The worst of the 4.

That was a totally awesome scene. Best of the series.

Holy shit the nerdiness is strong in this thread. Who remembers Star Trek anything?

I thought enterprise was pretty decent plus that chic in it was sooo banging

Hahaha, true. The Chief and Garak were my favourites.
