DS9 definitely had some unique characters. I also liked the Odo character, but I also developed a liking to the O’Brien one; don’t know why exactly. Ah, and Gul Dukat as the complex, strangely likable bad guy. And while I’m at it, I might as well admit that my favorite sci-fi series was Battlestar Galactica, the new one. The Empire Strikes back was the only Star Wars movie I really liked (and I really liked it). Although the 1st wasn’t bad—but do you really need to build a 100 kilometer wide ship capable of blowing a planet to smitherines? Seems a bit overkill, when all you need to do is just wipe out all life. A really big nuke would do that, and could easily fit into a Corellian corvette. I would have a hard time deciding my favorite sci-fi movie overall, however. I might make a list of the potential candidates some day.
