    The real shame is that we only got one season of Ezri. Her scenes with Garak were amazing.

      @retromillenium ปีที่แล้ว +9

      There's a strong possibility she will appear in a future ST series. From what I gather, once Picard ends in Season 3, there will be new series set in the post-TNG era, so it's a strong possibility Nicole could appear as Ezri in ST again.

    as much as I loved Jadzia/Terry, I remember immediately loving & accepting Ezri/Nicole. The writers & cast handled the transition so well. She had her own vibe & didn't allow the shadow of Jadzia cloud her own performance, well done.

    Nicole did an incredible job as Ezri, that 1st scene where she introduces herself to Ben at Sisko's Restaurant was chef's kiss perfection. It''s just a shame the show ended and we didn't get to explore her character more. Also, Nicole was excellent on the Dead Zone.

    Connor, Dom and Erica - congrats on another fantastic episode! Nicole was a lovely guest, she seems like such a warm person with a very sweet soul. I loved hearing about her humble beginnings as a child actor and her journey within the business. Super interesting to hear her perspective of having not gone to acting school since alot of the guests thus far have that sort of background and training. Ezri was such a wonderful addition to DS9, I thought it was tremendously sweet that Nicole felt a real, grounded connection to her character. Bringing back trivia was great fun, I'm sure I'm not the only one who's missed it! I hope it makes a comeback in future episodes, I always enjoy playing along as I watch. Oh Connor...I vote we get Wash one of those 'Hello my name is...' name tags and put it on his pot so no one is mislead! (Thanks producer Mark for providing the Wash lore once again.) Dom's Timmies joke gave me a good chuckle, we really do have them on every street corner here. 🍁🦫☕ As always, I'm waiting with anticipation for the next episode!

Very informative session, interesting to find out about her growing up with a step dad, things I never knew as a fan! I appreciate the easy laid back relaxed format. No egos in play. Just, "tell us what's up" and it went off in some really good directions. While Star Trek was covered, it was a thrill to listen about her career pre- and post DS9. Great session guys!

    I was a HUGE fan of her in that movie Cube and also in Deadzone. Cube was such a cutting edge scifi movie that I would still put in my top ten. From what I remember they filmed it on a shoestring budget and all of it filmed in one room where they just changed the lighting to represent the blue room or the red room and then all the terrifying traps made it look like a series of rooms. Such a creative story, highly recommend for anyone into scifi who hasn't seen it. Scifi buffs already knew her prior to DS9, at least I did, from that movie Cube. It holds up too.

    What a tough job she had for DS9 coming after such a core character's death. I stopped watching DS9 after Dax's death due to college life and women and it wasn't until DS9 was on H&I that I watched her seasons. She did an amazing job and I think it is a shame that she could not have been her own character without the Dax label. There should have been another character that was Dax and was a guest star during the war. Wonderful interview and amazing job as always.

    Another great episode, I love Ezri's character in Deep Space Nine and her relationship with Sisko, from Dax mentor, to relative equals with Jadzia to Sisko adopting a more mentoring role, it plays out really well. I also agree with Nicole that I don't see Ezri as just replacing Jadzia, maybe it's because I'm a huge fan of doctor who but I see Trill very similar to the time lords so while its still Dax at a base level, with their memories everything else can be different and the show makes sure to emphasis those differences althroughout the season, from her relationships being different, her views on klingon culture being different and the big one with her not having the confidence of Jadzia nor the sense of her own Identity at the beginning.
    I have no idea on your plans for future guests but with all the mentioning of Voyager I hope you can get a Voyager cast member on as a guest and I'd be ecstatic if that could be Tim Russ

    I had to watch the season a few times to fine a way to appreciate the character of Ezri. The more I watched it the more it made sense that her character was like the entry level Jadzia Dax. Ezri knew herself but quickly discovered she just didn't fit. The acceptance of the crew and even fans to some extent, was uncomfortable and felt forced. Then I began to realize that was exactly the situation Ezri was placed into. On to a station, pressed into a war, surrounded by weary travelers who had seen too many friends and loved ones die. Watching the episodes where Ezri explored her trill's past lives, was not only to get a glimpse into the other hosts, but what I saw as Ezri trying to find her place in herself. I would have liked to have seen where the character went beyond Deep Space 9.

    18:04 : Dominic : "I think there's a lot to be said for 'I know what I'm reading, I'm seeing the pictures.'" One of the most important things about playing a part well, in my opinion, is the comfort of the actor. When an actor doesn't remember their lines, when they're insecure about what to say next, it shows, it breaks up the flow of the scene. If an actor is unsure about their characterization it's going to show on stage. When I hear about method acting, the extreme stuff, the stuff that verges on being harmful to yourself or a fellow actor, I really have to question whether theater was the right vocation for that person. If you have to inhabit the mind of your character 24/7 for three weeks in order that you might be comfortable enough to give a performance, maybe performing isn't something you're suited for. I sometimes think of the really extreme examples of method acting as being like that artist who just can't get the right shade of blood red color from a tube of paint so they decide to use their own. (Blood, not paint.)
    But also fair dues, method acting *does* give people a method by which to act, insofar as acting is a skill, and skills can be learned and acquired, there's a place for method and theory. Stansislavski and Meisner and Hagen, all of which I'm sure I misspelled, have a lot to offer to a person! If you're acting like you're looking for a watch then hearing the line "Don't act like you're looking for a watch, just look for a watch" can offer a profound new way to address a character and a scene. In some senses method acting probably let some people become actors who never could have done it without the method.
    No disrespect intended to method actors, by the way, many of whom are much more employed than I am.

    I have the ENG theme song memorized for when I'm trying out pianos. Now I'll have to find Nicole's ENG episodes.

    It was lovely getting to know more about Nicole de Boer, but oh man, speaking as a history nerd, the shout out to Ancient Apocalypses was distressing. I recommend watching an actual historian debunk the many layers of lies the show was built on. I recommend Step Back's video, but there are more out there.

    It is a ahame that "Lennie" Nimoy, Nichelle Nichols, and (fellow Canadian) "Jimmy" Doohan are no longer alive, to be able to be interviewed on this forum. Keep up the fine work.

    I totally loved this interview with Nicole De Boer and I have a question is she interested in getting in on one of the new Star Trek's like Strange New worlds or Discovery or Prodigy or Lower Decks 🤔 because we would love to see her again ❤️

    I had no clue she was from Scarborough. It's crazy how close her childhood parallels mine.
