DS9 Gave Star Trek’s Red Shirt Death Problem A Greater Meaning
As far back as season 1, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine fixed the franchise’s notorious “redshirt” trope by giving death a greater meaning. Risking one’s life is part and parcel of Starfleet’s mission to seek out strange new worlds, but death very rarely had lasting consequences in Star Trek‘s early days. The deaths of David Marcus (Merritt Butrick) and Captain Spock (Leonard Nimoy) in the Star Trek: The Original Series movies are notable instances of tragedies that impacted the journeys of the main characters. So too is the TOS episode “Obsession”, in which Captain James T. Kirk (William Shatner) seeks revenge for the tragedy aboard the USS Farragut.
