Spoiler-free notes: Took them long enough to deal with Bareil's death. This is a better opening, but it would be a turn-off for newcomers or casual viewers who don't know who Kai Winn is. The actor who plays Shakaar, Duncan Regehr, was last seen in TNG's "Sub Rosa." I much prefer him here. This isn't a bad episode for exploring Bajoran politics. I like the idea of Kai Winn trying to take control of the provisional government, throwing the separation of church and state into the limelight, but the writers made her a little too unreasonable and villainous to maintain any kind of moral quandary. The episode could have covered some interesting ground, but it never really goes there. | |||||||||||
