Far beyond the stars

July 4, 2008

Of Avery Brooks’ performance in this episode, Jeffrey Combs comments, “Avery was spectacular. There was a scene toward the end where he falls apart with the camera right in front of his nose. It was just riveting.” According to the Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Companion, everyone who worked on the episode felt that Brooks gave an Emmy award winning performance, and there was a great deal of disappointment amongst both cast and crew when he wasn’t even nominated.

Totally agreed. One of the best pieces of television ever made.

  2. Yes being black in the 50s sucked balls, I get it. I wasn’t around then so I don’t feel guilty.
