Ferengi Love Songs

Episode 135

Friday 29 November 2024

It's an elderly Ferengi couple: on the left is Moogie, a lady in a  polka-dotted dress and lots of gold jewellery. On the right is Grand Nagus Zek, a very wrinkled old man with huge hairy ears in an equally elaborate outfit. They both look terribly happy.

Again, the story doesn’t really have a legitimate theme, it’s just More Ferengi Farce, but without any solid laughs. In fact, I’d put “Ferengi Love Songs” on or near the bottom of the Ferengi episode list.

Jamahl Epsicokhan, Jammer’s Reviews

It’s all pretty trivial and unamusing. The only reason this is watchable at all is that Armin Shimerman is so accomplished. Moogie is right – leave your action figures in their original packaging.

Tom Salinksy, Trekaday

It was a show that worked well in dailies, in little snippets, but put it all together and you’re saying ‘Enough already!’"

Ira Steven Behr, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Companion

– I don’t think that that episode was as good as either A Night in Sickbay or Genesis, but I do think it was pretty fun, and I’m glad that Deep Space Nine does it.
– Yeah, I don’t think that was an amazing episode, but pretty fun, I’ll take.
