When I saw him in DS9 (I still need to watch some of it) I was struck certainly by his acting presence.

Avery Brooks' contributions are some of my favourite aspects of <i>Star Trek: Deep Space Nine</i>, so I definitely wanted to emphasize that as early as possible.<br /><br />Sorry Dirty Pair has been such a drag for you. Actually, part of the reason I decided to cover the show episode-by-episode is because I discovered the whole franchise was on YouTube and I could embed the videos into my blog posts. I don't know if you knew they were there or not as I know some people have problems with my embedded videos, but they are. If you ever get the opportunity to sit down with them and catch up with the show, I hope you take it and enjoy it!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03828341842948036592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8349653650482188023.post-89373258371164436742014-08-23T13:36:30.233-10:002014-08-23T13:36:30.233-10:00I really enjoyed this piece - I've always foun...I really enjoyed this piece - I've always found Avery Brooks to be underappreciated as an actor and as a person, and I'm very glad to see that you have stressed (and plan to stress further) both his talents and his diverse range of accomplishments. While, I must confess, I have not seen Dirty Pair and hence found it difficult to enjoy your coverage of that show (even on a theoretical level), I'm glad to see your analysis can still enliven even the most seemingly cliched corners of 80s American TV (like Spenser for Hire). Looking forward to future posts!Douglas McDonald-Normanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11968298639525157474noreply@blogger.com
