My in laws got me the DS9 DVD box set (not one streaming service I have carries any Star Trek anymore).
So we have started watching this from the beginning.
After sitting through numerous modern shows recommended to us recently, some decent some really bad, it really becomes apparent how good this show was.
Dialogue, people. Dialogue is important. It doesn’t matter how cool your plot twist is, how many neat things in the plot intertwine with one another, nor how much real gun training the star had.
A good show or movie has to have compelling dialogue. So many shows and movies today just have dialogue that does almost nothing but fill up time.
