God I love Louise Fletcher though
You’ve got to love an actor that can do such a good villain.
I read somewhere that’s why Dukat just kept getting more and more obviously evil as the show went on - Marc Alaimo was so charismatic that people were empathising with him too much.
I don’t like the character (or any holy rolling bs in my sci fi, for that matter) - BUT - respect to the actress that can pull off that role and Nurse Ratched, because that woman’s thespian skills summon hate in a way that is frankly impressive.
Exactly. Louise Fletcher was an amazing actor that could make you feel total disgust at the sight of her in her role. Just the dripping condescension to her saying “my child” shows how great her talent was.

well put.
