Benjamins means money... ?

hm...... Odd.

Is this a culture thing?

First thought was: Benjamins means Sisko.

Benjamin Franklin is on the $100 bill.

So "all about the Benjamins" means "all about the money."

It's a US thing.

Ah. I suspected that was why I was confused. In some other places it might be all about the Elizabeths.

Brent Spiner was in an episode of Leverage.  I liked that show but can't watch it anymore because its on TNT.  I hope it doesn't get canceled.

The other thing about Trek actors in movies is not that they aren't getting any work or anything like that, but some tend to be in those unbilled supporting roles that might go unnoticed unless you just so happen to know that's them.

I'm not very sure there is a Star Trek curse, as much as any "just coming out of a recurring role" kind of thing. Some have done quite well since Star Trek. Others must have been doing a fair bit of stage work which of course would make them not very visible to a movie going audience.

I stand corrected. I suppose I am still cranky over Jadzia getting killed off the way she did.

Why does everyone of any importance have to have a meaningful death? It doesn't happen in real life, why should it happen in fiction?

Point is I think had they paid Ferral more money she would have stayed either way, but they didn't offer her anything extra so she wanted out.  I just wish they found someone a little less night vs. day to play Ezri...I liked Ezri to a degree but it would have been better if there were more similarities.  They spent too much time explaining her character when they could have been talking more about the War.
