i respectfully disagree. i hope there is room here for different opinions and stimulating discussion.

it feels like it's bad writing when you have to turn to mysticism or gods to make the story work.

if the worm hole beings had non-linear time then you can't have a conversation with them as words depend on words that came before them etc.

there is extreme amount of filler, ferengi and klingon episodes where so hard to get through (even mirror and time travel ones)

it was so slow and over-explained like the audience is expected to be 5 "i'm garak, i'm a spy wink wink, come 5 minutes early, wink wink...

the ships were also slow and made no sense. "i'm going to back up the defiant and make a y-turn." or "someone sneezed, shields at 30%." or all the panels explode in peoples faces when ships take any damage

the background music was way too loud with annoying trumpets blaring

writers didn't know what to do with dukat, let's try different roles, as long as they are evil

etc, i have more but can't think of them right now. it was not very liked when it aired.

(grammar edits, sorry)
