Nagus Rom? Who thought that was a good idea? He’s an engineer. He’d be miserable as nagus.

For a long time, I thought Star Trek: The Next Generation was the end all and be all of all Star Trek reboots. Sure, it’s a bit campy at times, but who doesn’t love Captain Jean-Luc Picard saving the day with his wits and idealism? I grew up watching the show. But now that I’m older and marginally wiser, I see re-runs of TNG and I cringe a bit. Sure, Picard is as intrepid as ever, but many of the primary female characters are shoehorned into tired stereotypes. The moment you start googling TNG, you open a Pandora’s Box of sexism from the whole production crew. It seems like despite whatever other role they play, women in Star Trek are first and foremost sex objects. This even bleeds into today’s film reboot of Enterprise, where a sexy female co-star strips down to her sexy underwear in both of the movies. For a show about a wagon train to the stars, set in an idealistic post-scarcity future that was revolutionary in so many other ways, it’s deeply disappointing. And then I started watching Deep Space Nine, and I was pleasantly surprised to find that DS9 does a much better job with its female characters.

Spoilers for Seasons 1 and 2 of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine after the jump.

You know what I want to see more of?

Intra-planetary travel in Star Trek.

How did Vulcans travel cross-planet? Car type vehicles? Trains? Did they walk? If so, why?

Bajorans are hella art-nouveau. Would they have subway systems reflecting that aesthetic? Would some in large cities have been caved in to save the architecture from Cardassian modification/destruction?

There’s more to moving people than spaceships
