Star Trek DS9 Episode 64 - Distant Voices

"Julian Bashir is subjected to a telepathic attack by an alien seeking a restricted substance."


This episode suuuuuuucks! It's Bashir's birthday and everyone is giving him a hard time about getting old. Then he gets electrocuted and "wakes up" to find a mutiny going on and he is rapidly aging for some reason. One thing that TV is really bad at, is old person make-up. It always looks terrible. So anyway, Bashir gets attacked by an alien while he is knocked out from getting shocked, he ends up in a coma, then at the end he comes to and sees everyone holding a vigil over him. I really hate Bashir.

64 down and 112 to go

I have no memory of this episode. I know I say that all the time, but this time I really mean it.

And it's true: Old person make up sucks. Even now, it still sucks. Why did Star Trek do so many episodes that required old person makeup? Did nobody at Paramount have the balls to say it always looks like shit?

It' so true, they still cannot do old person makeup!
