/c/TenForward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. Use spoiler tags in comments, and NSFW checkbox for posts.
This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'

~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.

Fun will now commence.

Sure but Rick is very well known for how he interacted and treated female cast. Famously most will know of Farrell being fired from DS9.

Is that why she left DS9? I never new, I thought she quit to do another TV or movie or something.

I don't follow the behind the scenes stuff on trek very closely.. anyone wanna give me a link or a quick summery on Berman's Bullshit?

iirc it's a bit between, she wanted some flexibility in her schedule to pursue other projects while staying on DS9, Berman said "lolno get fucked"

There has been a off-handed remark I heard on The Delta Flyers that Colm must have had so much time off to film other things in his contract and Terry saying that is why they never got to do anything.

EDIT: Basically any time Colm isn’t in an episode of DS9, he was off filming other things.

She wanted less time on the series to do other things but Berman did allow it. So she was fired instead.

I remember seeing an interview where she quit because of the grueling schedule where she had to be on set at like 4-5am but had to wait for her scene to be ready. Almost right after the word came out she was regretting her decision.

Now I think Rick might have heard of her complaining and "helped her out"

If I remember correctly she wanted a reduced schedule, to be a recurring character, but they (Rick?) said no.
