Tash Yar didn't do a thing for me. Too masculine or something. Maybe it was the butch haircut. I don't know. I believe she had a fling with Data one time. That tells you a lot right there. ;-) I think what she really needed was just a machine with a good steady beat...

Jadzia Dax was a fine-looking woman, but DS9 was not a very good show. They abandoned the thought-provoking, imaginative scripts that had made Star Trek what it was and turned more to plain old conventional TV melodrama, as far as I could see...meaning: episodes were basically built on heated personality clashes and not a whole lot else. A soap opera, in other words, rather than a good science fiction tale.
