#sisko dad propaganda

[planetlongjourney]

Petition to make a ds9 reboot where Sisko gets to be 100x more dad to the crew rant like

He already takes them out to watch baseball and invites them all round for food, but he should also go to celebrations/festivals on Bajor with Kira if it involves a father figure, he should tell Odo and Quark, in the most formal way possible, to play nicely and he should give out free hugs at futuristic revamped pride because everybody either has bad or not alive parents in the show so LET SISKO BE THE ULTIMATE DAD

[dumbass-duo-showdown]

Listen. Listen. With all this Buddie propaganda I feel like I gotta step up for my favorite guy in the current running. (No shade to y'all 911 folks, but it can't be all the propaganda!) Benjamin Sisko is best dad. Greatest Dad in the known universe. So much of a dad that he will be a dad to random children, and he loves babies SO MUCH. Like, they found a mysterious alien baby one time and he was so enamored with this baby. Dude loves kids. He's a single space dad that raised a good son and also loves his OWN DAD, and it's just so good, man. He cooks elaborate meals for his friends and son on a semi-regular basis even though he could just replicate it! Just press a button and have food! But no, this baseball-loving, soft, strong man loves to cook for those he loves. In part because his dad taught him that. We love us a caring man with hobbies, y'all. He's such a good dad. He is my personal fave fictional dad, no matter what the poll(s) end(s) up saying.

I have yet to watch Star Trek, but based on what people say. I agree

Avery Brooks:

Avery is a certified TV sci-fi hottie as Benjamin Sisko in Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. The first black star trek Captain, he also negotiated his signature look - the bald head and goatee - against haters who thought a Captain should always be clean-shaven. Thank God for that, because he looks devastatingly hot in a a goatee (a phrase never before uttered). He went on to direct several episodes of DS9, use his pleasant voice to record music and multiple host documentaries, and mostly retire from acting to teach as a professor.

TW: Flashing Lights

with that wonderful stentorian baritone voice he could move from intimidating commander to gentle and compassionate space dad...benjamin sisko is a man of many qualities, thoughtful, morally complex, understatedly hilarious, a lil unhinged, really really excited about baseball, and avery brooks never fails to breathe life, depth and dimension into the character and also did i mention his voice. fun fact he was a professor of theater arts at rutgers while filming deep space nine and would occasionally teach classes via vhs tapes recorded on set, complete with starfleet uniform. he also directed a number of ds9 episodes including notable ones like "rejoined" and "far beyond the stars", and performed many of his own stunts as sisko. stunt coordinator dennis madalone said, "of all the stars that I've worked with on all the Star Treks, and all the other shows that I've been on other than Star Trek, I've never seen an actor so physically capable of just doing everything...every time I'd bring in a stunt double, he'd be angry, sitting on a bench, because Avery was doing so great." he's also a distinguished stage actor and an accomplished musician and singer who's performed everything from jazz to opera. science has yet to discover whether there's anything this man can't do.

Prelims, Vote 8 of 8

The top 5 finales will move on to be included in the main bracket

Propaganda is under the cut, may include spoilers

Brooklyn Nine-Nine - 8.09 / 8.10 The Last Day

It just... season 8 had been so bad as a whole, it attempted to touch on the blm movement and did it in an okay at best way and in the wake of it all, i think a lot of people just weren't here for cop shows. The finale tried to bring the magic back with one last heist and it did pull out all the stops but I don't know, it just left me feeling really cold. And the ending being that even though the main character wasn't a cop anymore, that he would return to the station every year for the heist... it just never escapes the cop narrative even after he's left.

Chén Qíng Lìng/The Untamed - Episode 50

I nominate this final on grounds of CCP information control, censorship and homophobia. They were so scared of the power of wangxian that they ended up banning ao3 in china and in the show they have to inexplicably have them part ways just to hammer home the no-homo. Plus the show is just kind of objectively bad.... but it rewires your brain all the same

Community - 6.13 Emotional Consequences of Broadcast Television

ok i haven’t watched it in a while but it wasn’t the episode’s fault this show had been going downhill for a while. The finale put it out of its misery mostly.

Kyle XY - 3.10 Bringing Down the House

The writers knew they were getting canceled and chose to raise more questions than answers and set up cliffhangers, rather than have a satisfying end. I'm sure it was a last ditch effort to save the show, but it didn't work and now it's just a bad finale.

Northern Exposure - 6.22 Let's Dance / 6.23 Tranquility Base

No propaganda submitted

Ozark - 4.14 A Hard Way to Go

No propaganda submitted

Soul Eater - 1.51 The Word Is Bravery!

ugh god it just gave up on any attempt at character development or the ending of the story in any meaningful way. instead of a complex universe journey exploring her bond with soul, and death the kid becoming the new god of death, maka just...wins the day by 'being brave', extremely underwhelming and borderline nonsensical

Star Trek: Deep Space Nine - 7.25 / 7.26 What You Leave Behind

Man so okay like it’s not the worst worst one out there but man they really just fuckikg did that. Found family all went and spread themselves across the quadrant with the head of the show the leader, Captain Benjamin Sisko who really just wanted to live on Bajor, got turned into an incorporeal being who could no longer live a linear life while his wife and unborn child had to go on without him. They didn’t even have him saying goodbye to his actual son. His literal son did not get a goodbye, they only gave that to Kasidy, and no hate to Kasidy, she’s my girl, but she’s only been there for three year while his actual son Jake sisko was still basically a kid. He was like 19, 20 and no goodbye fork his dad he’s lost time and time again. Some characters got a satisfying ending but then Julian Bashir is left to stay on deep space nine supposedly still in love with Ezri Dax and together (but let’s be honest, it was a terrible forced decision. They made no sense, and had no chemistry) and still stuck without moving forward or changing. Like what a cop out. Not to mention the terrible cgi fire caves where literally gods got thrown into a fire pit and that was the big climax

[ultimate-polyship-tourney]

Ultimate Polyship Tournament:Round 56|Side B

Propaganda under the cut:

Tri'Polshivis

This is mostly self-indulgent, but I love these four in a polycule. Trip & T'Pol are married, as are T'Pol & Hoshi and Hoshi & Travis and Travis & Trip. My main ethos for this polycule is just Why Choose? Trip and T'Pol are adorable together and are conceptually so good (especially as a symbol of their respective peoples moving past xenophobia and coming together toward a brighter future), T'Pol and Hoshi semi-canonically kiss in the show already, Hoshi and Travis are both ensigns with troubled family relationships who are very competent for their ages but one is completely out of her element and the other is living his dream, and Travis and Trip I think would just be a very fun dynamic with a lot of nerdy mechanics talk.

Jaylal

So this only works in an AU because Lal dies five years before Ziyal is rescued from the Breen dilithium mines, but it would work so well. Jake x Ziyal is already perfect because they are both artists and both traumatized by their mothers' violent deaths and both trying to find their footing as young adults in an incredibly unstable situation, but Ziyal's father is quite literally a genocidal fascist and Jake's father is the best dad in all of Trek canon. And their dads are on opposite sides of a war. And their dads are the vessels for two rival factions of alien gods. And Dukat (fascist dad) desperately wants to fuck Sisko (Jake's dad) so he would absolutely try to leverage this somehow in that direction which would be painful but interesting. Lal, meanwhile, struggles to fit in among her peers (like Ziyal does) and is trying to figure out what she wants out of life (like Jake), but her legal status as a person is somewhat iffy and despite her dad being an amazing parent, the government keeps trying to take her into custody as, like, an asset of some kind. I think if she ever went to Deep Space Nine, all three of them would have a lot to talk about (especially in my specific AU where Ziyal and Lal are both independently basically resurrected after their canonical deaths).

[idonotbitemythumbatyou]

My propaganda for Sisko is that being a dad is so important to him, and such a part of his personal identity, whereas it’s incidental for many of the others on this list.

this isn't about who's the best dad, just who's your favorite :)

[foone]

Has anyone written an official star trek novel about Worf's bar mitzvah yet? (long post on Jewish Worf under the cut)

He was orphaned at age 6/7 and adopted by the Rozhenkos shortly after, so he would have come of age in a Jewish household. As for "would Worf have had a bar mitzvah?", have you met the man? He loves him some rituals!

And if you're not sure if Worf's adoptive family is Jewish, two things: 1. His mother is played by Georgia Brown, a Jewish actress 2. HIS DAD IS LITERALLY TEVYE. THEY COULD HAVE NOT MADE IT ANY MORE OBVIOUS

His dad is played by Theodore Bikel, who got his start in acting by playing Tevye in "Tevye the Milkman", an adaptation of the stories that predates Fiddler on the Roof. In 1969 he started playing Tevye in Fiddler on the Roof, the role he played more than any other.

Anyway I want to get a story about a klingon girl being adopted by a Jewish family as a child, and having her coming-of-age ritual with her new family. Call it "My Bat'leth mitzvah"

You know it's been pointed out that Worf seems to be more invested in the history and culture of the Klingons than most of the raised-by-Klingons Klingons we meet in Star Trek.

There's lots of fan explanations for this (the Klingons have lost their way, and he believed their propaganda about themselves, so he's more Klingon than Klingons, or he's on the autism spectrum) But I want to see it brought up on trek itself.

Someone asks Worf why he's so invested in Klingon rituals, in their history, in their culture, when so many Klingons have forgotten the same, and let it slip away.

Worf explains that he got it from his father, who always emphasized the importance of... *Worf stands up and begins to sing at the top of his powerful klingon lungs* TRADITION!

Three decks away, a startled ensign drops a sample container. Within hours half the ship has mutated into kangaroos and Data has to save the ship yet again while Picard swordfights Shakespeare on the holodeck

I wonder if Worf ever mentioned to Sisko that he was Moses.

Sisko: What. Worf: You're a prophet to a people just out of slavery, one raised by another culture but secretly one of them. G-d spoke to you and told you of your divine mission. Because of your actions you were told you would not enter the promised land.

Worf: Remember when you entered the wormhole and spoke to the prophets to stop the Jem'Hadar invasion fleet? And they did? Well, what happened to the Pharaoh's army when they tried to follow the escaping Hebrews across the Red Sea?

Worf: Even your name! Benjamin, son of Joseph and Sarah. These are Hebrew names! You are Moses.

And how does DS9 end? (spoilers) Oh, Ben is taken into heaven on a chariot of fire. Like the prophet Elijah.

I imagine a young Worf coming to his father, excited to point out a connection to Klingon religion he found while reading the Torah. His dad is excited that his adoptive son has taken such an interest, and asks him to explain.

Young Worf explains that he was reading about Jacob, who met either G-d or an angel, and wrestled him until he was given a blessing. Jacob was from then on known as Israel, meaning "wrestles with G-d".

Worf points out that Klingons have no gods... Anymore. They were killed by Klingons in the distant past.

Little Worf balls up his tiny fists. "Don't worry, father! I shall help you finish what Jacob started!" and runs out to practice Bat'leth in the back yard. Sergey covers his face with both hands, then looks upwards and whispers "he doesn't understand... Forgive him, please!"

He'll ask the rabbi for advice later, and they'll be a very unique conversation.

There are many difficulties with maintaining the faith and traditions in the atheist utopian future of Star Trek, but "my adoptive son read the Torah and now thinks it's his divine mission to kill G-d in his heaven and drink bloodwine over his corpse" is a new one.

little did Worf know that the job had already been done, years before he was born, and with Klingon assistance. Yes, I'm going to bring up Star Trek V...

"God" or at least a very powerful being claiming that title, is trying to kill Kirk on a planet named after the James Bond actor. Kirk reaches the top of a mountain (why is he climbing the mountain?) and he's out of options. BAM, Klingon Bird Of Prey, out of nowhere! DIE, GOD!

But it wasn't a Klingon at the weapon's console. It was Spock! (But he's Jewish too, so it was still someone who Wrestles-with-God)

From then on Spock was known to the klingons as chotwI’Qun: God Killer.

(the grammar is probably wrong on that, but if you try to correct me on my Klingon (don't you mean tlhIngan Hol?) at the end of a post about how Worf is Jewish, I will simply call you a NERD)

Pierce Brosnan Vs. Avery Brooks

Last Poll of Round 5!

Propaganda

Pierce Brosnan - (Remington Steele) - If you haven’t seen Remington Steele already, do yourself a huge favour!! It’s the silliest, sappiest, and somehow sexiest show from the 80s. Brosnan is the titular ‘detective’ with absolutely no formal knowledge to help him, however the cases always seem to play into his specialist subject of classic movies. Over the course of 5 series you really see Brosnan grow into himself, from his fluffy hair; charming wide eyes; and brilliant comedic timing in s1 to a more suited and serious character later as the overarching romance heats up. It’s a real treat to watch his boundless energy and chemistry with his costars in each and every episode.

I stopped answering it at 71." but even he said he asked if 'that was really his chest?' the first time he saw it (Source), His run as the star of Fantasy Island was his big roll after this movie. He was also apparently a good dad to his 4 kids, and was married to his wife for 63 years until her death (Source).
