It's Monday
Has this dropped!!
Dude, your edit gave me chills over an episode I've seen a million times! lol
Sisko’s head is like River’s beard.
If you’re truly not in the know and had no hints, it’s the greatest “Credits Spoiler” in Star Trek. But I’m sure people let some things slip
The best trailer yet. Holy cow! This is incredibly work.
This is excellent work, Josh! You perfectly captured the episode. Love that you started on the root beer scene.
The restraint shown in this trailer is the highlight for me.
I love this show so fucking much.
Homer seeing Free Tampoline Ad = Me seeing this trailer! Tampbopoline! Trambaboline! TramMopoline!!!
Target audience I salute you for another great super-duper DS9 Trailer. DS9 up to this point at times certainly rocked. But it's truly from this point on about to rock n roll! Long live Root Beet. And Long live the memory of Khaless the Unforgettable... Q'pla!
The moment we have patiently been waiting for has finally arrived. Season 4! This trailer has MUCH honour. Chancellor Gowron approves. Qapla'!
General Martok is a stone cold G...and the upgrades that Sisko and O'Brien have implemented- damn!
Bravo! Super hype trailer! I marked the date of the Uncut release on my calendar lol
Wow! Great trailer!!! ❤️ 💙 💜
oh dang! were they already spoiled on Worf? and if so, from where? i'm guessing imdb or dvd covers or something?
The DVD boxset has a big picture of Worf on the discs covering Seasons 4-7
Oh you killed it with this one! I genuinely teared up 🥹 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Is it soon yet?
Damn This popped up in my email and I thought you guys were watching the episode.
So, what kind of spike do you think Paramount Plus will see when they drop this episode? A thousand people all syncing up Way of the Warrior simultaneously....
If they do they're going to have a bad time. Paramount split the episode into two parts and the editing is different. Some scenes are actually missing from a few of the two parter splits paramount plus has.
Remember, everyone, you don’t have to wait for Early Access if you don’t want to! Just hit play and act out the parts of Josh and Alex yourselves. Read the Patron Takes you want to read. Bring back the whiteboards. Do whatever. They can’t stop you!
I've just been hit with a cease & desist for attempting to copy them in my living room.
Start of season 3: OK everybody, TNG is over we can start to make the changes we want. Start of season 4: OK everybody, Voyager is started and in the Delta Quad. Let's F-ing Go!
Season 4. Very special. Lets do this thing. :)
Of course the legendary Root Beer dialogue is in there.
I never looked at root beer the same way again
S-tier trailer 🖖🏼 Qapla’!
Did TA know about Worf coming?
Ye. Think they said couldn't miss it since he was on the box.
When is the early access?!
Let’s fucking go!!!!!
This looks great! Is it upscaled to high def?
No, but I have color correction and filters on it
This is a really good trailer. You waited on the big reveal of Worf but still hit some high points of his story arc with sone beautiful and poignant scenes. I can't wait to see your reaction to so many pieces if this episode.
Damnit! Tears again.
Wait, Worf's in DS9? Who saw that coming??? Awesome trailer!
Martok has the perfect voice for a trailer.
Looks like TA are here to continue watching Trek... - maybe they are... but so are we! Love the Trailer :D
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I've already watched this episode twice before the reaction drops. Fuck, it's so good, and so is this trailer. I'm excited!
That’s hilarious. I have too. It’s soooo re-watchable in my opinion.
Banger trailer gentlemen
this episode is the one that got me fully invested in DS9 back when it was originally airing. id only really been half interested
Josh, this is your Rock vs Stone Cold Wrestlemania X7 hype video. À true masterpiece
So, did Alex like it at all?
presumably the discussion will involve them saying they like it followed by 30 minutes of finding "flaws" in it, most of which are predicated on their 1) misunderstanding of something they saw or 2) them not remembering what happened
Getting closer to Season 5, where the show REALLY....y'know...takes off. 😏
After deleting 100's of 'wait til season 4!!' mentions..I am so relieved to finally be here!
There is nothing bubbly and cloying about this trailer. But I am happy because I am hyped up for what is about to come! Well done, TA!
With the exception of the Worf spoiler, that's something I wish I'd seen in the 90s. Heck, include the spoiler. It's what makes it great.
It was already spoiled for us in the 90s with the show ads... That's why I won't be too upset if they've decided to watch the opening credits without hiding them. I know they said they were going to do that with everything else.
Goosebumps.
This will break the view record!
LET'S FUCKING GO!!!
I cannot wait. This will be my favourite episode of DS9 you have watched so far. During the first 3 Seasons you both hinted at knowing someone joins the cast at some point. I think everyone realised you were talking about someone in this episode😋
Just remember don't watch the opening credits
Too late now, one way or the other! 🤣
If you guys do not like this episode, the Target Audience will not forgive.... or forget
Listen. It's TA's right to like it or not. That's why we have opinions. I'm here for Josh's and Alex's reactions, no matter what.
Finally the show has started
Guys guys guys. I think you just outdid yourself on this. Chills! Fantastic trailer!
I always said this episode feels like a DS9 movie we never got. You really outdid yourself this time, Josh. Q'pla
Why am I hyped for a reaction video?? What have you done?
What they had to do. What they always do. Discovered a show that goes beyond just something on your tv screen.
LET ME IN!!!!!!! LET ME IN!!!!!!!!
"Soon for Early Access" Oh you cagey bastards lol
Dammit, looks like some of us foreigners are gonna have the same problem as "Caretaker" and only have the edited, split up for syndication versions.
Paramount plus is no joy either. Every commercial break, I have to resynch.
SPOILER!!
The only people who can handle Star Trek trailers… are The Target Audience
My anticipation for this reaction has reached such a level; I felt compelled to compare this trailer with the last trailer and correspond it to it's related early release. "The Die is Cast" trailer was released on the 18th of March, with the early reaction release following 4 days later. A most impressive trailer.
Oh damn, Worf's guest starring for an episode, cool!
It's a 2-minute cameo to get ratings
The one I have been waiting for since you guys announced you were doing DS9. Cracking open a root beer for the watch…
It's vile
Sisko is gone. THE SISKO is here!
So, will Alex sport a different facial hair look for season 4?
Yes, actually
Is the root beer intro to do with warming to Behr? If you watch enough of his DS9-showrunner era ( starting in season 2) you gradually warm to him?
Root Behr?
For the love of Kahless, early reaction ASAP
Kahless loves? For the fury of Kahless ASAP!
Been waiting 6 months for this trailer to drop… today was a good day to view!
It's Tuesday, why can't I watch X-Files S2E2 yet?
Time varies. But I can assure you "The Host" is there.
They either won't like it or say they like it but don't get the hype why it's any better than a regular episode.
I dunno about that, I hope they like it. Best Worf episode in what feels like forever, but also great character moments for everyone. The Cardassians are still imperative but we move the Klingons into the focus all while keeping the Dominion as the looming threat. It's like the TNG world has finally crossed over into DS9 territory
Now this is when the show steps up to the next level
When you guys watch close your eyes and plug your ears during the theme song so you don’t get spoiled about Worf being on DS9
Maybe they only had the rights to Colonel Worf. You don’t know.
Better than the actual trailer
Isn't that always the case?
And so it begins ....
Can you please release this trailer in IMAX theatres everywhere?
Fine! I'll hook it up to my Imax and play it from there. Probably gonna use the AI upscales
Yet another five star awesome trailer! Can't wait for the reaction.
You have brought us all great honor. Qapla!
Wow, wasnt it just Sunday that it was commented that they hadn't watched it yet, and now a trailer? I dont know anything about video editing, so I'm impressed with the speed. Also impressed with the quality, imagine if this had been what aired in the 90s before the season started
Gonna be a long week waiting for this one! Epic trailer as always.
Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees!!!!!!
Remember folks, they also released a cinematic trailer for Past Tense. ;)
Avery Brooks is back to his preferred Man Called Hawk look he wanted in the first place. The studio was originally too worried about him looking like an "angry black man." First he restored the goatee with no problem, then the shaved head. Now DS9 is complete.
Slapping desk, hootin', hollerin'.
Anyone else checking the feed every ten minutes in case early access goes up?
That's why you gotta turn Notifications on. :) But yeah, every time I get a Patreon notification, my heart does skip a beat or two.
An important day is upon us. Qapla'!!!
Peak has arrived gentlemen
Not bad, not bad at all. Maybe even pretty good.
Beautiful! Brought a tear to my eye. This is going to be an epic reaction.
I told you right before you started DS9 a year ago, I couldn't wait for you guys to react to this episode.
You pulled everything I wanted to see — the root beer speech, “except my honor,” the NPC security geek flying off the balcony of the Promenade — just *chef’s kiss.* S-level trailer.
SO LOOKING FORWARD TO THIS 😁😁😁😁
He is not a Merry man
Amazing trailer! I have to confess, I did a double-take when I saw it was an "ISB/RHW Production." Had to pause and realize that 'ISB' was Ira Steven Behr. As a longtime fan of Star Wars - including a LOT of the old Expanded Universe - I'm so used to 'ISB' standing for Imperial Security Bureau, which If I recall correctly was basically the Galactic Empire's secret police in what is now 'Legends.' Not asking you to change it or anything, just sharing a personal anecdote, that's all. Can't wait to see your full reaction! ^_^
Legends? Did you not watch Andor?
There is something about this episode, something has changed and DS9 feels so much more confident than it has before.
Bigger and balder
It's plotty but also character rich and has Worf so I have a good feeling they liked it. lol Fingers crossed!
Between Garak, Odo and now Worf…how can you go wrong?? Today is a good day to drop another bad ass trailer, guys! Q’pla! ✊
DS9 is now home to the coolest outcasts in the galaxy.
Awwyeah baby
Alex's creampie episode. Epic trailer can't wait for the reaction!
That’s such a great scene. And pretty unique in Trek to have a series with non Federation people in a scene, and seeing what they think of the Feds.
Halfway through I thought you were going to pull a Defiant and hide Worf completely.
I got chills watching this! Let's gooooooooo!
There's a handful of scenes from DS9 I go back and watch in isolation frequently. The "Worthwhile" speech from Nog in Heart of Stone is among those you've already seen, and the Root Beer scene is another. DAMN good scenes
I also love the scene how they inform Cardassia/Garak of the imminent invasion!
So bummed this reveal isn't a surprise for you guys, tht would have been epic.
I think you alluded to "You Know Who" joining the cast in your comments in Patron Takes recently- hopefully not spoiled by others, but pretty hard to miss in Box Set art I would imagine!
I’ll be curious to know when exactly they knew.
Q'pla, Target Audience.
Eric has really changed.
Best of Both Worlds ain’t got shit on this episode
No worries! Quark shall save everyone with his... box? Damnit, Rom!
“With what?”
I thought the episode dropped for a second. I would have rearranged my plans for today.
Q'pla!
I’m so excited for this season
Some choices you can make over and over and the world never stops asking you to make them. That's what Worf's life has been. He's not defined by how he made the choice, but how he keeps making it.
It's not who he is underneath but what he doessssss that defines him
Can hardly wait
Starting off strong with the root beer scene... Guess you guys liked it.
It's insidious.
