Oh fuck... I'm dying laughing over here. 🤣

As much as I absolutely love DS9, I did not like the Vic Fontaine character. But, in general, I'm prejudiced against holodeck stuff, most of the time, because I felt Trek spent way too much time in the damn holodecks instead of exploring space.

At first, I didn't really mind this character that much. But then they really started giving him more screen time as the show went on, and that just made me resent the character. I did not want to spend time in the holodeck when they could have spent that time on the Dominion war storyline or on more interesting characters (Sisko, Dukat, Kira, Kai Winn, etc).

DS9 is still one of the few Trek series that, overall, I truly enjoyed, but I skip the Fontaine scenes whenever I go back and watch episodes now.

Yes, agreed. He seemed like a genuinely decent individual from the brief time he had on screen. But you could tell that even he was terrified of his wife's behavior. Poor guy! Imagine being married to someone like his wife... 😱

Ooh! Maybe they could do an episode where comes back to get help from Pike, Spock, and T'pring because he's looking to divorce that demon of a Vulcan wife?! Lol.

I was disappointed they didn't spend more time on the scene at the end where Spock reveals to T'pring's mother that he was actually human while performing their precious ceremony. Really wanted to see him yank that Vulcan rose bush that woman had up her ass!
