    Rick Berman being a sexist piece of shit gave us the leaning dress of Troi and Jeri Ryan in a catsuit. 17 year old me appreciated that.

    But Rick Berman being a sexist piece of shit denied us a full seven seasons of Jadzia Dax, and that is inexcusable. No amount of 17 year old me appreciating women boobily boobing across my Star Trek will redeem that sin. And middle aged me gets nothing out of catsuits but would have thoroughly enjoyed having Terry Ferrell around for season 7 of DS9.

    tl;dr: Rick Berman is a sexist piece of shit

      Agreed and I’ll bring it up a notch. Jadzia reminds me a lot of my aunt, who died when I was 14 when she was in her mid 40s (she had heart trouble at the end of her life). Having Jadzia die on screen is like salt in that wound.

    When my wife and I got married, it was basically this meme. We had our officiant (who was my wife’s former roommate) do our vows using Worf and Jadzia’s vows, and he really wanted to put in the “mawage” line, too.
