do people today understand how revolutionary the three part episode (homefront/the circle/the siege) at the beginning of deep space nine season two was? do they KNOW what it was like to hear majel barrett say the words “and now: the continuation” for the first time??? i literally did not think you were allowed to do that on television i was like a baby seeing a soap bubble form for the first time in my life.
Even more amazing is it was before Ira Behr was showrunner. That shit happened under Berman and Piller! Truly shocking.
