#StarTrekDeepSpaceNine s6e15 (1998) - 9/10
Honor Among Thieves, teleplay by #RenéEchevarria.

1️⃣ #DS9 does #Wiseguy! With #NickTate and #ColmMeaney, two of my favourite actors, in the equivalent of the Sonny & Vinnie roles.

2️⃣ For me, it's a terrific take on the idea. No surprises, because we've seen it done on many cop shows before, but it's great to see this story done so well in Trek.

3️⃣ My 785th episode of #StarTrek, out of 893.

📺 My 690th #TVReview of 2023. Averaging 1h57m of TV every day.

#StarTrekDeepSpaceNine s6e9 (1997) - 10/10
Statistical Probabilities, teleplay by #RenéEchevarria.

1️⃣ Smart episode gives Bashir a bunch of misfits to work with.

2️⃣ Story morphs effortlessly. First, it's about the plight of these people who are excluded from society/Starfleet. Then, it's about the savants suddenly finding a very important role in the war effort. Finally, it's about an attempt at treason.

#StarTrekTheNextGeneration s3e25 (1990) - 8/10
Transfigurations, written by #RenéEchevarria.

1️⃣ A #BeverlyCrusher episode, where she works with an alien patient with amnesia.

2️⃣ The mystery is good, but isn't quite enough to sustain the whole episode. Some detours, such as #Worf dying in a fall, feel like padding to get us to the finish line. Performances are good. So is the ending.
