and the next episode they gotta deal with a guy who is bald
To be fair, the bald guys can be a pain to deal with...
^Shinzon^ ^never^ ^existed^ ^in^ ^my^ ^head^ ^canon.^
And then when they do make a serialized show instead of an episodic one everyone complains about people being moody due to the trauma established previously ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Imagine if O’Brien had to actually deal with the trauma of being in a mind prison for 20 years and killing his only friend over some breadcrumbs. Dude should have been a shell of his former self but he was right as rain an hour later.
I mean, he did have persistent ptsd related hallucinations, could only sleep on the floor and kept trying to hide food in the walls.
Yeah for the rest of episode. Never seen him sleep on the floor or hide Bits n Bites after that.
Ok, but he was married to Keiko.
Yeah, that was just basic common sense.
But other than that, right as rain.
The longer he was married to Keiko, the more time he spent with Bashir and drinking and using the holosuite.
Every time he suffers trauma, his face gets slightly smaller.
The moodiness isn't the problem. The overacting is. I mean... It's a throwback to TOS and the early TNG episodes, but I think SNW has struck the ideal balance on that regard.
My completely obvious not true or Cannon but makes me feel better is that between episodes they go through intensive therapy and it's just never shown or stated.
Only Picard gets to process on screen.
OK, so do you know about the black mountain?
Uhh, yea, it's not a serial.
I like that this works for both, TNG and most of the seasons of DS9.
