This is the deepest cut I’ve seen yet
“Did you go into the Badlands? Why did you go into the Badlands? Who told you to go into the Badlands? Did Starfleet tell yo to go into the Badlands? What have I told you about going into the Badlands?!”
Wow, TOS, a movie, DS9, Voyager, and Seinfeld! This dude’s royalty.
I always liked One Small Step. I didn't realize Lt Kelly, or at least the actor, was in other Trek. Seven's eulogy was excellent.
"The Yankees... In six games."
Having recently rewatched that episode is what tipped me off. The discovery (heh) of his influence over the series warranted attention. Seeing Seven's transition from dismissal to admiration really made it special.

Unless you're a Red Sox fan, that is
The one that immediately came to mind for me as my favorite is Omet'iklan, played to the hilt by Clarence Williams III. Remata'Klan was also a stone-cold bad-ass, so maybe it’s a toss up.
In a weird way this humanized the Jem Hadar. It gave then a motivation beyond killing or conquering that made them more relatable than, say, the Borg or Species 8517.
Thanks for posting this thread and giving me a whole new appreciate for this actor and his characters. 🖖
When I was a kid, I came up with a theory that the jemhadar had no individual names, like the Borg. Everyone in a jem hadar unit was whatever prefix Remata or Omata etc refered to the name of the unit. Clan was added because they were all a cohort of a dozen or so people. And that the only way to distinguish amongst themselves was their rank, solidifying the whole "order brings victory, victory is life" mantra.
I know now that doesn't really work but hey, I had fun thinking it up.
Omg,
This is unsettling.
