Watching DS9 for the first time...

im a huge B5 fan, and never really liked DS9 as i felt it was some sort of clone. And it is in some ways... I never watched DS9 from the start, only saw a few episodes here and there......the most off putting thing is when even character names were similar...they must have really being taking the piss..i also felt star trek was way too politically correct..oh a female captain, black captain....gay 3 armed legless midget captain next? and i never liked how things always wrapped up nicely...well fuck me. iv been watching DS9 since its on netflix...and most episodes from season 1-3 didnt really grab me, dont get me wrong there was some great episodes there. but from season 4 onwards finally some EXCELLENT stories and characters decelope more...i have 1.5 seasons left to go. And the similarity with B5 im seeing less...and because every cunt of a show is like a long ass movie to nowhere...its refreshing to have things start and end in one epsiode and also continue the story arc. TNG is on anaother level, and i saw all of TNG for the first time (only dabled with it before, but held it in high regard)before DS9. Its on another planet, and i dont know if it was nostalgia or what...but i thing every episode even from episode 1 i felt as a human race we are a piece of shit and we should strive to be more like trek. what it means to be human and shit..ah fuck... could have been the acid tho.
