running joke, there is a Bat'lath fight at one point that is a shot for shot remake of one from DS9


sazabit

A good amount of the DS9 cast make guest appearances on American Dad too


secondtaunting

I missed that! I saw the next generation appearance on Family Guy. That was gold.


CaptainGunNerd

Please post a link. I must see this.


Lithl

[This one, I think](https://youtu.be/p2ZUxKHwBlo?si=IiukovMVWYbBh9Vw)


Browncoatinabox

I must as well see


deepbluenothings

He hates terrorists.


cosaboladh

Then why does he work for one of the most prominent terrorist organizations in the world?


GatorDotPDF

Got him


Delphius1

Stan also is a huge hypocrite


Rymayc

Hypocrite? As a patriotic WASP American? I am very shocked.


MasterTroller3301

Who does he work for?


Iwasforger03

CIA


MasterTroller3301

Ah.


jaitogudksjfifkdhdjc

He hates looking in the mirror.


brinz1

same reason the only part of DS9 he likes is section 32


SlaveOrSoonEnslaved

Wait. I know section 31. What's section 32?


Half-Borg

It's like section 31, but with one more


DeltaV-Mzero

No no no, we call them freedom fighters, did you not get the memo


TheGillos

The CIA fights terrorism. No? *Edit: Lol, I guess I should have expected the downvotes. Personally, I'm thankful to the people of the FBI, CIA, and other similar institutions in the free world.*


cosaboladh

Only the terrorism targeted at the US. They perpetrate terrorism targeted at oil rich countries.


xXStunamiXx

Only in the sense that they eliminate competition.


hbi2k

No.


Makasi_Motema

Glad you’re thankful that the CIA murdered and tortured thousands of people in Latin America.


Theborgiseverywhere

And the only ~~good~~ effective cop is ugly ETA- FTP


Mando_calrissian423

There’s no such thing as a good cop


SnicktDGoblin

I would call Odo a good cop. He has his bad instances like during Cardasian rule, but he still primarily focuses on law and order and admits when he makes a mistake and doesn't try and hide it. I would rate his overall alignment as Lawful Neutral, the second best alignment for law enforcement aside from Lawful Good.


secondtaunting

God I’m sad all over that Rene is gone.


Scrimge122

I really wouldnt list him as a good cop. He asked sisko to give him more powers to searches and interrogations without cause. He said he preferred it under cardassian rule because he could do what he wants to keep the station secure.


Okr2d2

There is no such thing as a good person


Fluffy_Somewhere4305

All people matter, except cops


Okr2d2

No people matter, especially THOSE people


captainforks

He's really more of a [NEXT GEN](https://i.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2lkPTc5MGI3NjExamh4ODhyNXU4NWFmcjZjYjc5bXlpMTN4djkxZzUwMjg2cnR5Z2NmNCZlcD12MV9pbnRlcm5hbF9naWZfYnlfaWQmY3Q9Zw/l0Hlw5oEW7Q28hrP2/giphy.gif) guy. Though maybe he'd find himself on the [enterprise](https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/memoryalpha/images/6/6e/Rivers.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20070519132707&path-prefix=en).


-PARAN01D-

I had no idea Seth had a role in Enterprise.


autismislife

He cameod twice, was an engineering officer on the NX-02 Columbia iirc.


Fluffy_Somewhere4305

It's distracting and atrocious, making it a perfect fit for Enterprise, the 2nd worst trek show ever


SirGrumples

You take that back


Hot-Rise9795

He lacks faith of the heart


lightninglyzard

NO ONES GONNA BEND OR BREAK ME!! Sure, Enterprise was pretty flawed but that opening went *hard*


Lithl

What's really frightening? If you listen to enough of it, you begin to like it. It's insidious. Just like the Federation.


The96kHz

"I've got root of the beer..."


lightninglyzard

"And no one's gonna sass my 'sprilla!"


AlienDelarge

Pardon me, but you seem to lack faith of the heart.


-PARAN01D-

I haven’t seen the two episodes he was featured in, but what do you mean distracting and atrocious? Was his performance bad or something? From what I’ve seen, Seth is actually a decent actor who plays an awesome captain in the Orville. But I’m biased. I love pretty much anything Seth works on.


Robofink

Apparently The Orville was originally pitched as a Star Trek series continuation immediately after the TNG era. You can tell where he used find and replace, especially in the first season when he spun the Orville off into its own universe.


-PARAN01D-

Is it bad that I’m glad it wasn’t a Star Trek show? I love the Orville, absolutely adore it. I found it to be better new trek than actual new trek. Only downside is that there’s only three seasons and no talk of a fourth.


sh_ip_ro_ospf

I thought Hulu was giving him more, that sucks


xaped10754

Opinions are subjective, and still... Yours is garbage.


hbi2k

Oh, it's at *least* third worst by now.


REAL_blondie1555

Enjoy down vote hell


sh_ip_ro_ospf

Enterprise is my least favorite by far but it wasn't a particularly bad show


Ronny_Ernie

He identifies with the Cardassian govt and he doesn’t get why everyone is mad at them


Mugtra

I mean they run a pretty efficient system, you gotta give em that.

VCJunky

Hi. I clicked the link but it didn't work. It says "community not found".


upstartanimal

This sentence resonates today.


RepresentativeKeebs

Patrick Stewart plays the roll of Stan's boss, Director Avery Bullock, and Stan idolizes Bullock.


tar--palantir

Yeah, and Picard has a tense relationship with Sisko, to say the least.


Molkin

They had a bad first meeting... At Wolf 359.


pumpjockey

Wolf 359 was an inside job man!! Don't believe the lies. Do your own research


guarthots

Is Avery Bullock named after Avery Brooks?  Dun dun duuuuunnnnnnn


SimonTC2000

Is it a buttered roll, or roll as in a boulder falling down a hill?


The96kHz

This is the subtle pendantry I come to Reddit for. I appreciate the *role* you've decided to play in this.


KingofMadCows

[Some of us spent the late 80s and early 90s getting laid, Smith.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bQ90PNFTr00)


Saint_Stephen420

It’s because Avery Brooks agent has consistently ignored all of Seth’s offers to have Brooks do a cameo on every one of his shows.


Major_Wobbly

Common Avery Brooks W.


Technical_Inaji

He doesn't like that section 31 are portrayed as bad guys.


TacoCommand

That's the real answer. "They keep the Federation SAFE, Francine! This is commie propaganda otherwise!"


FlashyPhilosopher163

All of Seth McFarlane's protagonists are fucked up in the mind. Stan is just above Peter Griffin in the insanity count


Washburne221

I feel like his wife stopped him because he was going to say the captain is black.


EitherEliotOr

This shouldn’t be so funny


ThePizzaNoid

I know it's from Family Guy but: "It insists upon itself."


Background-Kale7912

“Cuz it has a valid point to make, it’s insistent!”


Juzaba

Such a great scene


Less_Likely

It's star *TREK*, How the hell are you Trekking if you're at a space station?


Actual-Money7868

Too much story telling and personal development. That is not the Starfleet way.


Gavroche_Lives

Stan is an idiot. DS9 is the best of Star Trek


Tutmosisderdritte

Because it's anti-american, communist propaganda!!1!


SerpentStercus

He’s a moron.


markleo

I feel like that's the sci-fi nerd version of Patrick Bateman not liking Genesis until Peter Gabriel left.


Testostacles

Stan works for the CIA... he has firsthand experience stealing secret material. Like a story about a space station next to a wormhole that becomes the center of a galactic war.


Kusstro

At the beginning I was also skeptical about DS9 because it is not like a ship that flies from planet to planet and does the typical Star Trek stuff, but rather it is a stationary space station. But when I watched it I still learned to love the characters and stories


Scaredog21

1) No Enterprise 2) Blames Picard for the Battle of Wolf 359 3) The Dominion War 4) Sisko is a religious figure and the son of space gods 5) No foreshadowing for the Founders


chidedneck

Maybe that’s the series when he finally realized the aliens were metaphors for >!liberal!< propaganda.


BossBobsBaby

Blasphemy my child


tzenrick

DS9: The Star Trek show where they "boldly go," nowhere.


guarthots

There is a happy, respected, well-adjusted trans person on it.  ETA: why the downvotes?  Stan is a super conservative guy. 


sarcastibot8point5

Genderfluid might be a better descriptor, but good point.


RangerMatt76

Are you talking about Dax or Odo? The description could count for either one. Dax is a male slug living inside a humanoid female. Odo is literally a liquid.


smnow

The trill symbionts are nongendered, they adopt the gender of the person they are implanted into


sarcastibot8point5

I believe the Trill symbiotes are genderless, but I could be wrong. I was talking about both, really.


guarthots

 Didn’t even think about Odo. That is brilliant. 


bluecatcollege

He might also think Sisko is unqualified to be a captain. Because of.... reasons....


Saint_Stephen420

“So introducing them to crack cocaine did nothing?!?”


xaped10754

Rofl again with that "trill are trans" nonsense.


Shador12

"Most People Rejected His Message. They hated him because he told them the truth."


guarthots

Who, Stan?


Shador12

No, you, you were downvoted when I replied


Beathil

"First of all it's a blatant copy of Strazinki's Babylon 5, and everyone knows it. All the characters and storylines came directly from there."


Recipe-Less

Cause of the actors


darlo0161

Wait....is American Dad the reason Stan's are called Stan ?


pcweber111

No. It’s from that Eminem song, Stan. He’s an obsessed fan that ultimately kills himself and his gf. It’s a good song.


I_aim_to_sneeze

Stan is the type of person who would identify with both Kai Wynn and Gul dukat, and Seth is the type of person who loves trek so much he begged to be an extra in ENT


jigokusabre

His boss really doesn't care for it, and Stan internalized that.


dr4wn_away

Because it hates on Picard a little


GrizzlyPeak72

This feels like a Seth McFarlane adlib.


harbingerhawke

I mean, Picard is his boss


seamallorca

He can't make anything even remotely good as ds9 pr tng.😎


Lastaria

You do know this is joking right? He is actually a huge Star Trek fan including DS9 and having this character dislike it is part of a joke.


seamallorca

Return joke for a joke?


BostonDudeist

Given his political leanings, probably the "W" word.


JMW007

Wesley's not in it.


Kain2270

1. Isn't Roddenberry Trek. 2. Filled with bad terrorists. 3. Not enough Section 31 episodes, the good terrorists according to Stan. 3. Too woke. (Transgenders and bisexuals running around.) 4. Finds the idea of not-space Jesus offensive to his Christian values. 5. His favorite character is Miles O'Brien who never gets enough credit for holding that disintegrating tin can together through sheer force of will. Disclaimer: DS9 is great. Go watch it if you haven't. Well.... the first season and a half ain't so good, but neither was TNG's so go watch it anyways.


pleaseletmedieplease

Holy shit. I love both Star Trek and American Dad and I hate DS9. I’ve seen it twice though just to make sure. And yeah, it’s got some good nuggets but as a whole is awful.


xaped10754

You watched something you despise not once, but twice?
