I agree with Atoz. The only good thing about it was the old Defiant. the way the characters behaved was just....well whats the point? And there really was no reason fro them to change into the old uniforms, escept that somebody thought it would look cute.

I mean, if you like these characters (their personalities, moral qualities and so on), why in the world would you want to watch other characters who look like them but act totally different? If the mirror Archer had been portrayed as just as intelligent as ours but with different moral outlooks, that would have been one thing. But he wasn't. He was portrayed as a stupid jerk, just this side of insane. I wonder how he managed to rise as high as he did in that mirror universe if he could have so badly underestimated Hoshi Sato!

And if Hoshi was a intelligent deciveing woman what does that make the real Hoshi? A bumbling idiot?

They were both equally intelligent, obviously. But the mirror Hoshi used her intelligence to worm her way into a position of power. Different moral outlooks.

I liked the 2 part episode "In a mirror darkly", but the ending was disappointing. I think the story ended too soon. It could have been done better as a 3 part episode.

As you gather, I didn't like the story at all, but I thought the way they wrapped up the story made sense. How would you have continued from there into a third story? (Of course, if you liked the concept, you could spin off into a whole series, but...)

I think they should have gone to the point where the rebellion was totally suppressed, reverse engineered some of the Defiants technology and applied it to their ships, shown more how empress Sato took power and the short term aftermath. The story was interesting ,but in no way would I like to be with a bunch of dark brutal people. The federation is much better than the brutal Terran empire. I just like the idea of all kinds of possible things happening in all different ways.

I'm glad we agree on one thing -- that the Terran Empire was really not much fun to watch.

As brutal as the Terran empire was.....I liked the story...and as for where I would want to be....the Terran empire/mirror universe is not it

I Do Agree! I find It Most Interesting, But A Iron Hand Ruled Society Can Have Its Perks. It Is Similar To Youre Earth Arab Society, As There You Can Loose Youre Tongue For Being Smart Mouthed, Or Even For Lying And Endup In Prison On Top Of That!
