S01.E11: The Nagus


Recommended Posts

Another Quark-centric episode. While there are times I find him amusing I think a little of him goes a long way. He's sort of the Dr. Smith of DS9; the writers tend to go to that well a little too often for my tastes. I'm not really interested in watching a show about Quark and the Ferengi. Wallace Shawn is of course a cinematic treasure, but Ferengi-centric episodes are ones I'd rather just skip. 

I did like the development of the Jake and Nog relationship and Jake teaching him to read, though.

 The Ferengi-centric episodes are probably my least favorite of the recurring plots in the series.  I can appreciate developing a race that's not a 'power player' and has issue with the Federation other than wanting to conquer them but the Ferengi were so extreme they became cartoonish.

It didn't help that the Ferengi were originally described by the Next Generation showrunners as the Donald Trumps of the galaxy.
