    it’s kinda strange Star Trek never really leaned fully into classical Shakespearean actor without getting too tongue in cheek about… and i find lack of Romulan Rickman disturbing.

      Romulan Rickman, Hahahahaha, that would’ve been brilliant!

      I do think ToS was dead serious about it’s Greek Morality Play presentation, which is why I can appreciate it.

      It was a bit blunt and obvious, even for kid me.

        My first thought was Cardassian Rickman but we already have a lot of great Cardassians and there are way less Romulan bastards. The other option would’ve been to make Rickman Q and let him and DeLancie chew the fuck out of the script. But alas - never going to happen. But we have Galaxy Quest.
