I like both Ezri and Jadzia, but Rick Berman did Terry Ferrell dirty and that’s the only reason we had Ezri. So I like Ezri, but there never should have been an Ezri.
She wanted to be on Becker so it was her fault. Berman could have been nice and written her into fewer episodes. But it was her moving to a major network show that killed her off.
Becker was a high profile major network show which would have gone along with a major salary increase. If she really wanted to leave, she wouldn’t have ask to stay but written out of more episodes so as to not conflict with her Becker schedule.
“The problems with my leaving were with Rick Berman. In my opinion, he’s just very misogynistic. He’d comment on your bra size not being voluptuous. His secretary had a 36C or something like that, and he would say something about, ‘Well, you’re just, like, flat. Look at Christine over there. She has the perfect breasts right there,’” revealed Farrell.
“And then I had to go into his office. Michael Piller didn’t care about those things, so he wasn’t there when you were having all of these crazy fittings with Rick Berman criticizing your hair or how big your breasts were or weren’t. That stuff was so intense, especially the first couple of years,” she added.
I like Ezri. It was somewhat crazy to me that they never originally intended on killing her off to begin with.
Like, they created a race that can (sort of) Doctor Who style turn into a brand new person, and their plan was to never utilise that beyond one season 1 episode where someone steals the Dax symbiote?
That’s crazy to me. Don’t get me wrong, they did utilise the “I have multiple lifetimes of experience” aspect, but never intending to give her a new character was a little odd.
I really liked Ezri. It’s just really unfortunate what happened to Terry Farrell that made it happen.
As far as I remember, I don’t think we were ever told how long a symbiote can live for, as such it’d be kinda cool for a Dax to show up in the final season of DISCO. I highly doubt that will happen, but it’d be cool :)
Jadzia, because she’s awesome.
Jadzia can save her own self though because she’s a badass. Porthos is a helpless lil doggo.
Porthos made it to the end of his series, meanwhile Jadzia…
QQ
Technically, since the last episode takes place on the holodeck centuries after the events of ENT no one in made it to the end of the series.
Sad point, well put.
someone should have told Worf this
Am I a weirdo for liking Ezri?

She wanted to be on Becker after years of being treated like shit by Berman.
Yeah Berman was a misogynistic jerk but she wanted out to go to Becker.
I get that. What I’m saying is that she wanted to go to Becker because Berman was a jerk.

No, Ezri is cool too.
