I have now decided that Garak is my absolute favorite character on DS9, and one of my favorite characters in Star Trek as a whole, maybe of all time. It's because I have never seen a character like him, and he is awesome! No joke. I mean this guy. 3nodding He's so amusing, cute (in an "aw" cat_cry sorta way), mysterious, philosophical, secretive, a liar (who prefers you know that he's a liar), adorable, and a spy, not characteristics you often see in one person. Plus, he was a guide (though a bit of a confusing one) and also a student. His friendship with Bashir, because they are total opposites. I really wanted to see Bashir totally fool him at one time, and have him be super shocked and confused. I could explain it more, but I had a bunch of stuff from yesterday, so I don't feel like doing it today. Still I wonder how the creators came up with him. I think it was mainly the actor because Garak was intended as a one episode character but he was so good that he was asked to come back.
These are the only "Kardashians" I want to keep up with! wink

For the record, Voyager is still my favorite Star Trek series.
