    Yes.

    It was also the year of fire. The year of destruction. The year we took back what was ours.

    It was the year of rebirth. The year of great sadness. The year of pain. And the year of joy.

    It was a new age. It was the end of history. It was the year everything changed.

    The year is 2261. The place: Babylon 5!

        I’ll never forget the episode where he punched Kosh in the face and thus Kosh never showed up again to mess with Commander Windu.

          Avery Brooks will probably never agree to play Sisko again. But Samuel L. Jackson might.

          It could happen. IT COULD HAPPEN!

              He seems totally disinterested if the DS9 documentary was anything to go on.

                  Sure, you could definitely do a DS9 reunion like the TNG reunion on Picard without Sisko (and Nog, unfortunately)… but would people really want to see that?

                  I can definitely buy Sisko as a king under the mountain figure, believed by the Bajorans to return in their hour of greatest need, like Arthur for the British.

                I think I watched that one. Is it the one where he seems a little weird and plays the piano? Do you remember if he gave a reason to not want to do more DS9?

                  I don’t remember, no. But yes, that’s the documentary. They also come up with a hypothetical first episode of a series taking place 20 years later.

          My name is John Crichton, an astronaut. A radiation wave hit and I got shot through a wormhole. Now I’m lost in some distant part of the universe on a ship, A living ship full of strange alien life forms, help me, “HELP ME!” Listen please, is there anybody out there who can hear me? I’m being hunted ‘Hunted’ by an insane military commander doing everything I can’t! I’m just looking for a way home!

            A shadowy flight into the dangerous world of a man who does not exist. Michael Knight, a young loner on a crusade, to champion the cause of the innocent, the helpless, the powerless. In a world of criminals who operate above the law.

              Theorizing that one could time travel within his own lifetime, Captain Jonathan Archer stepped into the quantum leap accelerator and vanished. He awoke to find himself trapped in the past, facing mirror images that were not his own, and driven by an unknown force to change history for the better. His only guide on this journey is Al, an observer from his own time, who appears in the form of a hologram that only Sam can see and hear. And so, Captain Archer finds himself leaping from life to life, striving to put right what once went wrong, and hoping each time that his next leap will be the leap home.

    Avery would absolutely deliver that line exactly as you wrote it. His acting in DS9 is so delightfully unhinged, way over the top and campy, I love it!

          Ah but they’re non-temporal. If Q ever did that, they wouldn’t be present when we see them in ds9, therefore Q does not and can not!

            “People assume that time is a strict progression of cause to effect, but actually, from a nonlinear, non-subjective viewpoint, it’s more like a big ball of wibbly-wobbly, timey-wimey…stuff.”

          The wormhole / Celestial Temple seems to be extradimensional in some way. They might actually be out of Q’s reach. Or they might not. Q’s powers are vaguely defined.

          If Q were non-linear, then the Big Bang would not make such a great hiding spot from the other Q. He can travel through time, but he is not omnipotent, omniscient, or omnipresent. He stands no chance against non-linear beings. The Prophets could stop the Q from ever existing in the first place.

            I feel like big events like the big bang are not a good place to hide because there are likely other people who go there a lot. It’s like in the Dr Who episode where someone is hiding at the end of time. Like, how is that a good hiding place? No one ever got curious and decided to go check it out?
