Fellow Niner here! I'm also a fan of all things Garak so when Uma McCormack released Enigma Tales in 2017 I was ecstatic. I think she really captured the characters well while also being a good Star Trek story.gipps wrote: ↑25 Oct 2013, 08:43 I really like almost all of the Star Trek series. I guess I'm odd because I really didn't like the new movies (they were okay, but not really thematically similar to any of the Treks except maybe Enterprise, and I really didn't like most of Enterprise). But Deep Space Nine was my favorite series. The characters were just so well done and complicated. My favorite character was Garak, though. In the Pale Moonlight is probably my favorite episode of Star Trek ever (Starship Mine from TNG is also up there). I love that the actor who played Garak, Andrew Robinson, actually wrote a Star Trek novel, A Stitch in TIme. But I agree that the world is sorely missing a proper Star Trek. We need something that captures that sense of optimism towards the future and not the unnecessarily bleak, "gritty," and mundane iterations that have dominated the series since Voyager ended.
Star Trek anyone?

Now I don't know what to think. I might give Discovery a chance when I’m up for the stress of it.
