Keiko is the worst villain in the entire Alpha quadrant.
That is all.
While it’s fun to poke at Keiko, I think Winn Adami is a worse villain.
Also: Gul Dukat is the best antagonist in Trek.I just love to hate those two, so the actors certainly played their parts very well.
Wouldn’t you agree, my child?
(You read this in her voice, didn’t you?)
I just watched “Looking for Par’Mach” - unless something extra bad is coming up, Keiko is far more horrible…!
The problem with Keiko is that she just isn’t on miles level so she comes off as self absorbed in the face of a genuine man who is literally out there saving the alpha and delta quadrant weekly.
She’s tolerable in TNG because she’s more of a plot device for Miles but for DS9 they lean into the fact that she’s a mother and a wife and I guess the point of her character was to show the dynamics of family life for non-officers for star fleet. there’s no way Keiko should know whats going on - it’s way over her head - she’s just trying to live a normal life, but she has absolutely no deference for the fact that she’s married to one of the most hard working and honourable people in the whole galaxy and that really just makes her a nag and annoying af.
