Okay gramps. Time to go drink your prune juice.
Patrick Stewart: ‘The studio have always claimed that the ship is the star of the show, especially when they’re renegotiating contracts.’
Good tea. glances around Nice house.
This scene will be with me when dementia has taken everything else.
Worf likely has the highest number of episode appearances. Now you’ve got me wondering about literal time on screen of some of these characters. Spock might give him a run for his money if you count all the different actors.
Come to think of it, with the right subtitle files one could probably make some neat infographics about the number of words said per character in each show.
RIP Morne
He just won’t shut up
You can never get a word in edgewise when he’s around.
There are sites that catalogue both scripts and transcripts. Should be easier to just download those than try to rip subtitles off of the DVD releases.
Like when he assumed he was Captain.
He was decorated.
I would say no.
I think, to qualify as “The Main Character” one would need fully half the available screen time. Everyone else has the other half to divide among themselves.Screentime of all the characters doesn’t add up to 100% because there is not always 1 character on the screen.
That’s true. I did forget about that.
But still, for anyone to be called a Main Character, they should be part of at least half the screen time.

by this logic Sisko isn’t the main char for DS9, and he’s so main char he might as well be Mary Sue. He’s literally space Jesus, but gets like 1 min screentime per ep.
Unless he’s nuking planets, then he gets the majority of screentime comitting crimes of war.
Erase log message.
I’m so glad I haven’t seen that ep, and hope I never do.
I did just see Michelle Yeo as Georgie Papadopoulos DIS 3:2 and yeech. Great actress, awful character for trek.
Loved the idea about “I want to just jump around multiverses” being a nod to everything everywhere all at once though.
Sisko is definitely a darker character, morally dubious. But that’s what I love about him as a captain.
It’s more realistic. More honest. Picard equivocates and bitches and moans and then does it anyway as if that makes it perfectly alright.
Sisko does what he sees needs to be done, and recognizes it wasn’t “good” or maybe even acceptable.
Agreed Sisko isn’t the main character. He might be the most important, but that’s different, and very debatable.
There doesn’t always need to be a Main Character. That’s what an ensemble cast is.
no, lmao, and half his episodes didn’t deserve to be episodes. YAWN skipping another Klingon episode…
