      DS9 is one of those shows that when I think back on it, I remember it being okay. But then when I rewatch it, there was some pretty dang good episodes. Back when Star Trek was still in the campy-serious sweet spot. Before the dark days of everything being grimdark.

      Also back when TV shows could inject social commentary (for the most part) without heavy-handed wokery.

      Why is it that people fail to understand that a little bit of grim-dark goes a long way?

      It’s kind of weird...not a perfect analogy, but I might liken it to salt. When you eat salty snacks, you keep craving more. The times in my life were I was really into emo and grimdarky stuff was when I had more drama and pain going on, personally.

      I think part of it may be that people who are suffering tend to consume that kind of content.

      Maybe kind of like...when you’re depressed or angry, sometimes it’s satisfying to just wallow in that emotion and perpetuate it, unhealthy as that is.

      I think the popularity of grimdark nihilistic media these days says something about the mental and emotional state of our society.

      But this is all just unscientfic conjecture on my part. @TheBrometheus - are there any actual terms or theories for this kind of thing, or am I just making shit up?

      Here’s my analysis of the last 100 years of broken familial attachment in America and how it has altered public tastes in storytelling.https://adamlanesmith.com/2020/05/16/heroes-dark-heroes-and-antiheroes-how-audience-preferences-have-changed-through-the-generations-and-what-comes-next/ …
