I’m definitely signed in, and I can see it. But I have to pay for it if I want to watch it.
I got the BluRay earlier this week.
It was more surprising to me hear Ira Behr say that Garak was “obviously gay” and they’d chickened out on writing him that way. I feel like I’ve been vindicated at last. Andy Robinson has been saying so for years; he was always encouraging to us fangirls who wrote Garak/Bashir slash stories, which is one of the reasons I continue to love him when I’ve long ceased to care about other actors I was fond of back in the '90s.
Another thing I found funny: Nana Visitor and Terry Farrell are talking to Ira Steven Behr. Nana remembers being really upset about a story idea that was once floated about Major Kira and Gul Dukat having an affair.
Ira protests that it was never more than an idea, and anyway it got rewritten and changed into that episode where Kira goes back in time and discovers that her mother, whom she had always thought died in a Cardassian labor camp, had been Dukat’s concubine.
Nana then says that, if they hadn’t set up the romance with Odo, she could see Kira having an affair with some Cardassian… but “NOT Marc Alaimo. Dukat! I meant Dukat!”
Ira, Terry, and people off camera crack up.
Dammit, I tried it too and there’s no option to stream it. Hopefully that will change soon.
OK, so I ponied up my five bucks to watch this on Amazon last night. Except for the cheesy crooning at the beginning and the end, I really enjoyed it. I loved the stories about how intense Avery Brooks is, and how you have to talk to him like a jazz man.
It was also cool to hear that Brooks sort of “adopted” Cirroc Lofton into his family and that they still hang out together.
My wife was annoyed with the one producer guy who wore his sweater wrapped around his neck. Didn’t that look die out 20 years ago? I said I could think of something that looks even stupider than a sweater around your neck… a blue goatee! (Seriously, what’s up with that?)
(My bolding) I don’t remember this. Did they specifically point out scenes that had been converted to HD?
I don’t remember this being discussed either. Maybe I need to watch it again before my 48 hour rental is up.
That’s Ira Steven Behr. Be respectful. ![]()
IIRC, that’s toward the end. Just a few scenes because it’s WAY too expensive.
That may not have been in the doc, but I remembered reading about it here. Scroll down to the second paragraph under “Background Information.”
Just got my poster from the production team, showing ISB cradling DS9 in his hands. Looking forward to getting my DVD.
Bumped.
