There isn’t nearly as much “background character killing that not a single person seems to care about” in later Star Trek series like TNG and DS9, but I do love how sometimes if the character is important to the plot they’ll all be really sad about it and be like “Ensign Crinklecracker gave up their life in the line of duty and we will remember her sacrifice for the years to come” but if the character is killed off to show how strong the other opponent is or if they just aren’t important everyone will be like “oh no!” And then just keep on going on with the plot. (the background character might get mentioned at the end like “5 of my crew died to defeat Gul Crunklecronker” maybe just maybe)

Like that once guy who died in “civil defence”??? He LITERALLY did the most dramatic fall and death and no one even cared they just sort of forgot about him 😔

Anyways just give my poor Guys a break, just mention them, they would like to be remembered as the Ensign who got stabbed by Mr Evilington or something. :(
