I liked half the ending. It’s a shame that we had to slam the brakes for the other half of it so

.

Dukat and Kai Winn can be satanists. I like the idea that Sisko ends up joining the Prophets outside time, but it never really feels like the writers knew what to do with him being a spiritual figure for Bajor. This ending just kind of happened.


Anyway, I’m posting this 'cus there used to be a user here with the name SiskoDidTwoThingsWrong, and i’m wondering what those two things were? Keeping the cure to the changeling disease seems like the most obvious one. I’m curious what the second is

      became this chosen figure raised by the prophets suddenly in the last season

      Isn’t it pretty early on though when he’s getting visions or whatever from the wormhole? Like i never got that far in DS9 because I don’t like space station star trek but i’m pretty sure i saw that

        It’s set up from the very first episode. Personally I like it and I always thought the prophet scenes were done really well, with them talking to him through his memories. Gave me chills sometimes

        From what I remember, it starts out with him becoming the emissary by coincidence. He just happens to find the wormhole, the prophets in the wormhole decide that he is not a threat and he is chosen by the Bajorans as their prophet for this reason.

        At the last season, they change Sisko from this everyman to actually he is the chosen one that we raised from birth for this very purpose. Suddenly he is the chosen son of one of the wormhole aliens, and I get so mad at chosen one narratives, find them so lazy and all too common.
