Come to Quark’s, Quark’s is Fun!
General off-topic chat for the crew of startrek.website. Trek-adjacent discussions, other sci-fi television, navigating the Fediverse, server meta (within reason), selling expired cases of Yamok sauce, it’s all fair game.

I think O'Hare was pretty great in the role, but the role was very...unconventional for a leading man on a sci-fi show. Like Picard with a death wish.
Definitely a different perspective. I get the sense that this is one of those situations where viewer reactions can be quite polarized.
BTW I liked the role, and was very much looking forward to the show after the original pilot aired with the original first officer. I just didn’t find O’Hare’s acting in the actual show met the standard they were looking for.
