The interaction was tense, and the audience knew it and could sense it, but it never descended into profanity, melodrama, or insubordination.
    Point taken.. I guess I just didn't like Sisko's bellicose attitude, which then softened a bit at the end of the premiere.

    Picard was assimilated and directed to facilitate the assimilation of Earth, but the Borg were coming even if there wasn't a Locutus. Ironically it was Picard who was instrumental in saving Earth after he was retrieved from the Borg cube. I'm sure every Starfleet officer knows the details of that encounter (especially one that was there), and it's just a plot contrivance to have Shaw acting so angry and petty towards Picard given all those details.

    It was masterclass acting by both men in a scene that is the epitome of drama in Star Trek, and featured something that is sorely missing from modern interpretations of Star Trek. Discipline.

    It’s not supposed to be reflective of real people. Trek was supposed to be humanity in its ideal form, not its real form. When I see people cussing, using drugs, disobeying and disrespecting superior officers, and just otherwise behaving like 21st century characters, it screams to me that these people running the franchise neither respect or care about Star Trek, or Gene Roddenberry’s hopeful vision of the future.

    They’re cultural vandals. Nothing more.

    Yes, great episode.

    I like how Captain Liam Shaw was not written solely as a one-dimensional arzehole. He’s a multilayered character who is not just background fodder. He did mightily contribute with helping the ship and crew with his engineering skills. And his verbal confrontation on Picard’s Locutus of Borg past, showed that Todd Stashwick is a very good actor.

    Episode 4 was great. No spoilers, but it features one of the coolest moves in all of Star Trek!

    A good read on Trek species lifespans…

    A life span, life expectancy, or life cycle was the maximum or average length of time a lifeform, material, or object was projected or capable of living or lasting. Having an effectively unlimited life span was referred to as immortality. The life span of humanoid species was known to vary from less than a decade to as long as several millennia. Some non-corporeal species were known to have life spans exceeding several millennia. Generally speaking, a life cycle was marked by the process of agin

    No joke, the show runner said in an interview that Worf's look is an homage to Pai Mei from Kill Bill.
