I really enjoyed it until they shoehorned in an attractive human + wierd alien romance to compete with Odo & Kira (barf) on DS9

  Didn't rewatch it for decades. But isn't this romance a very background narrative arc until the very latest season?

    The "making one of the unique alien main characters look more human to be a better sell as a love interest to the audience" part is unfortunately ever present though. Then again, they already went in that direction between the pilot and the first episode.

    It ruined it for me. I just can't care about two creatures who wouldn't care about each other in a biological sense irl kiss on tv.

  Didn’t B5 do it first, by years? Kira/Odo didn’t become an item until B5 was off the air.
