The Orb 93: The Navarch Awakens

The Circle Trilogy, Part 3 of 3: The Siege. Enterprise gets much praise for its unique three-episode storytelling style that defined the fourth season. But a decade earlier, DS9 took the format for a trial run with what has come to be known as "The Circle Trilogy." Comprising "The Homecoming," "The Circle," and "The Siege," the three-part story remained unique within Star Trek until the NX-01 entered the Borderland. In this episode of The Orb, hosts C Bryan Jones and Matthew Rushing continue their miniseries that takes you through the arc. We discuss the many great character interactions and the humor that's sprinkled amongst a coup d'état (it's French). We also discuss the resolution of Li Nalas's arc, how the story ultimately supports the Federation's mission, and whether or not the trilogy amounts to just a story about "those boring Bajorans." Oh … and let's not forget about that Bajoran militia hair. Snazzy!
