Comments

Ryan Roach

I really hope you didn't figure it out.

William Roberts

Love the little snip of what I can only assume is the reaction to the twist.

Cory Paton

Awesome, hiding the thing just like an official trailer would!

Jesse

Great trailer. Saturday can't come fast enough.

Gavin Hewitt

Mate, keeping that spoiler free, epic!!!!

Ryan Roach

Even back in the 90s, they didn’t give this one away. They just told us Riker was back. It was a genuine surprise.

Ross Townsend

The stinger of your Pop at the end is what we all have been thinking about for this episode!!

Matthew Ganz

I like the choice to not include the twist. i can only assume the reaction at the end is when it is revealed.

Darren

Ooh very good not spoiling the twist too much

Thomas Cole

Now you can see why we love this little ship. And a great Episode all over.

Numinous2019

Yeah.....um....I wouldn't refer to the Generations script as a reference for Moore. Even he and Braga accept this was sub-standard.

Dr. Paul Stubbs

Hell yeah, a whole trailer about the Defiant! What a ship!

Numinous2019

Also, I got Ace Rimmer vibes from Riker's final moments with Kira on the Defiant's bridge. I realise they have to send him off with a final flourish, but it was a bit OTT for such a good episode.

Summer

That Chief moment is the moment you realize something is off (I wasn’t expecting a potential trailer till Thursday, but it is Tuesday.)

Sir, This is A Quark's.

Another banger song choice... and buried the spoiler. 👏👏👏👏👏

Fedora The Explorar

From "Star Trek Generations" writer Ronald D Moore. Not exactly his best work 😆 Glad you two liked it tho

Fire and Bloodwine

It's just fun because Generations just came out before this.

Laura Thornley

Not mentioning this episode AT ALL for months on end wasn't easy.

Matchstick Jose

Oh, no. The Defiant has gained sentience and joined the Maquis!

Dan J Reid

I liked Generations.

David Kirk

Geez, if all of these epic trailers (awesome to not reveal the twist in this one) aren't greatly increasing your viewership something is very wrong. Now you know why Season 3 is so great. Lots more joy in this and future seasons.

Dan J Reid

You know they're going to recognise his voice before the camera cuts to his face!

Ryan K

Gotta believe I know exactly what moment the laughter is from.

Collin Freeman

Been waiting for this one. Can't wait to see your full reaction.

D Jammers

I was praying that Alex or Josh didn't guess who it was before the reveal.

Emodramabomb

I expected a reveal in the last 3-5 seconds lol. Great trailer, enjoyed it very much!

TinMan_7B9

I have this nagging feeling there's something missing in this trailer.... Can't put my finger on it. I Will figure it out.

Naglfarius

Attention Bajoran Workers! Trailers will continue until the Winstreak drops. (Should be now the longest Winstreak of Banger Episodes?)

Ryan

Between this and Generations, I guess the Riker legacy is to lose ships as soon as they command them. But damn if it isn’t fun getting there. Like everyone else, I’ve been geeked for this one for a long time. 🔥

Target Audience

I don’t even think there was a streak of 8 before tbh.

Who North America

I actually felt my eyes water in anticipation of this reaction... bring it on!!!

John M.

Hi, Josh. Yeah, Rick Berman here. I love the trailer, but how would you feel if we put Riker in it everywhere. And maybe a voiceover that said, "Thomas Riker returns..." and ends with the kiss between him and Kira. Other than that, perfect.

Zenlike Creature

Great trailer and well done for holding off on the twist. But I bet your audio reaction was to that twist ;) Looking forward to this!

Callum Roberts

Trying to avoid spoiling for anyone that plans to watch along for the first time but my prediction is that they think the guest character is a changeling. I won’t say how true or not that is.

Erik L Jerks

The Enterprise makes a tubular space baby and puts the crew through riddles. The Defiant, just decides to go after Cardies.

MJBull

And you thought we were done with the Maquis plot line.

MJBull

Sisko: "When I find the person responsible for taking my baby out for a joy ride..."

HeatheЯ

That was good :)

HeatheЯ

Just the audio at the end was great.

Jon Miller

so can't wait for this

mike

And again you guys create a fantastic trailer…. And Without ruining the special *****

The Game Show Reviewer

What’s this? No major spoilers in a Star Trek trailer? I didn’t think that was possible!

Deliximus

It's tomorrow release

TC Green

Oh. Hell. Yeah!

Erik L Jerks

Definitely not what I grew up with.

Loot Narsbaar

First of all, this was great. Especially the parts where the dialogue was isolated at the beginning. Second of all the IRL trailer showed ****** from the first frame. (I hope they've seen the episode and I can say that).

Loot Narsbaar

Feeling validated as a third season is a good as the following seasons believer

Loot Narsbaar

I think the Chief confirms it, but he doesn't seem 100% like his namesake from the beginning.

Jack Molitor

Nice work…what else could possibly be in store for this episode…?

Captkirc

In the history of first time viewing the number of people that figured it out has to be super low

The Ninth Doctor

My guess is they didn't like it... Happy to be proven wrong... 😌

Trillhouse

Okay, now do an "O'Brien fights the station's systems" montage set to Monkey Wrench. We're waiting ...

Monty Crawford

Cool. My first thoughts about the Defiant was that it looked like a tick. But it grew on me...no pun intended. When you guys going to post the package opening??

Joe Concepts

Can't wait to see two "pops" in particular. Will the appearance of Riker get a bigger reaction or will the true identity reveal?

Target Audience

There are a plethora of package openings recorded. They will come out periodically as they have been.

Crewman #6

One of the most heavily armed warships? The one that got it's ass kicked in the season opener?

Twistator

Not according to the January schedule posted in December, unfortunately.

TC Green

Alex, you don't need a burner account we all know it's you. /s

Summer

Sometimes when watching something new I try hard not to form thoughts during the episode so when I first saw this I was in the zone and don’t remember if I noticed anything, I would make a horrible reactor because when he took off the side burns I think my reaction was ‘oh ok. Continue the story.’ But if I have time to form more of a thought I feel the pacing of the episode may be off.

harrypothead42024

Excellent including a clip of Josh and Alex at the end

David Kirk

That was against multiple Jem Hadar ships.

Ryan Roach

Someone got cute and mentioned Thomas in the Character Tier video, so I was a little worried. Once “Riker” gives Chief the cold shoulder, I thought maybe one of them would start to twig something, having so recently been reminded of Tom.

JoeCensored

How you were able to fill that out while never including Riker, I have no idea. Impressed.

JoeCensored

But I think they will go insane for "You did it Tom."

Analog Mind

Next Time on STaaaaaaar-Trek Deep Space 9! A Familiar Face Shows His Face (rips off side burns) But Not alls what it seems. Catch it in the next Exciting Episode (Kira Gets Shot). That's how the Season 1 TNG trailer guy would've done it

Vexx

How the hell do I wait till Saturday to watch them with this episode?!?

Mike Rogers

There is going to be a couple pops at least.

tyranusfan

I thought it was Dem'Hagar? :)

Evan Guthrie

Yeah we're going to bring a great character back, then completely kill all respectability.

Narnman

43s Go on Cliff Bole another nice panning shot of HQ!

Scott Woodward

Managed to take out a Dominion Warship when the previously most advanced class of ship in the Federation (Galaxy class, same ship type as the Enterprise) could not put a dent in their shields, which literally makes it the vessel that has kicked the most Dominion ass to date....but okay.

Scott Woodward

Mad respect for these guys for carefully cutting around one of the big big twists of this episode that the OG teaser trailer could not WAIT to reveal right out the gate.

Scott Woodward

Nah I don't buy it. They've loved weaker episodes than this one. Frakes guest starring, Dukat and Sisko verbally sparring like the best parts of the The Maquis two parter, and good old Cardassian intrigues to keep them guessing as the Season proceeds. My money is that they will love this one. Now the episode after that....that's the one I'd expect them to be disappointed by. But they've surprised me before with how much they enjoy this season so who knows.

Scott Woodward

Well, I can't promise there won't be any bad episodes this season (although you've enjoyed some of the ones I'd count as duds so WHO KNOWS!). What I can say for sure about the season is immortalized in the words of Mr. Sinatra. "The best is yet to come, and babe won't it be fine..."

Scott Woodward

And if you weren't phased by that clue you will be when Kira gets phased.

paultardspambot .

I think aesthetically the ships in ds9 look awesome. The defiant is starfleet but very different, and the purple glow insectoid look of the jem'hada ships is also awesome, reminds me of the decepticons.

paultardspambot .

Alex might hate it. Starship battles, intergalatic politics, ominous portents, ugh. (kiding, I think)

paultardspambot .

the trailer being released means they have seen the episode. Towards the end you can her an udio clip from their reaction where Josh says oh my god

paultardspambot .

except we almost immediately see the two maquis people we've seen ebfore after the reveal. I dn't think we need to worry about spoiling other people here.

Loot Narsbaar

The OG trailer is still out there and is even more egregious

Loot Narsbaar

I mean it did blow up a Dominion ship with one shot. Not even Capt. Keogh on the Galaxy Class USS Odyssey could do that

Loot Narsbaar

I’m not going to watch if the Enterprise doesn’t blow up

Crewman #6

More than half the replies making me think they don't really pay attention to our boys in their reactions smh my h.

sword bard

That's what he said about Mardah.

JordanK1991

The Obsidian Order approves this trailer.

FrankandStein

I wouldn't have thought you could make a trailer this great without spoilers. Well done.

Cranky Grandma

Great trailer! Way to keep the surprise!

Jiri Luza

I see what you did there!

Brazucacalifornia80

"One of the most heavily armed warships in the quadrant in the hands of the Maquis..." Though little ship, huh?!
