I just finished my rewatch of Deep Space Nine, Season 1. Overall, I liked it and have the following quick thoughts. I love the character of Keiko, but am I supposed to believe that Starfleet couldn't be bothered to send a teacher to the station with an actual education degree? In the episode Move Along Home, the aliens from that race should have been held more accountable for what they put the crew through. Instead, Sisko was just, "Oh, well, nobody got hurt." No, that was still unacceptable, and the people who brought that game on board the station should have been held accountable. I know a lot of DS9 fans will disagree with this, but I really don't like the character of Sisko. I love his interactions with Jake, but he often acts like he doesn't take what's going on around him very seriously. Part of this is the way Brooks delivers his lines. He tries to make Sisko seem tough, but he almost sounds like he just takes things very lightly, and he often sounds more amused than I think is appropriate. I felt the same way with the voiceover actor who played Ben Kenobi on Clone Wars.
