I love his character arc, and how he came to respect Kira. DS9 excelled with making you change your view on characters! Also Casey Biggs is an awesome actor
@@CS-zn6pp Initially, yes. But in later seasons (and especially the last), he was central and by far the most well developed on the show in that last season.
"They'll just make another copy, you know. They should have killed me. There's only one Damar." What a line. And just like that, I've suddenly noticed Damar, seperate from a generic background Cardassian guy.
At first the actor was dismissive. As an actor he was only a background character for Dukat doing all the crazy schemes and damar was a lackey. Writers said please hang on in a few seasons you will be the liberator of cardassia and turn heroic. Glad he stayed as Damar. Writers knew they had to do the slow buildup.
@@SWIFTO_SCYTHE well they didn't spoil things for him. they said to him to stick around and that they had plans for him. it was a recurring role and he would get billing and be paid for it.
Well, it kinda was a running gag. I mean they started with Nr. 4 and ended on 9... Funny enough, that "another instance" part was not originally planned. They just liked Combs Weyoun so much, they had to undo some varporsation.
@@umbrellacorporationwuhanfa3731 Best and surprisingly fastest development and redemption arc. Expertly done. You go from hating him to feeling sad when he died. It didnt feel forced or unnatural. Goddamn the writing on the show was awesome!!
The character of Damar began to drink heavily to deal with his stress. If you notice, he makes a slight grimace each time he drinks Kanar. Kanar was just corn syrup dyed black, and he hated the taste and viscosity of it.
So 4 was killed by a jem-hadar 5 was killed by a teansporter 6 was killed by himself 7 by klingon And 8 by a cardassian. To be fair he never died the same way twice so he obviously learned something each time.
"Do you have the Cryogenically cooled restrooms installed? I tried a human food called 'burrito' and my three buttcheeks have been clenched the last 100 light-years of the trip."
Have you seen those suits? There's no way there isn't a jar for them to piss in somewhere inside. Having to unzip that thing all the time would be a colossal pain in the ass.
This scene is great. I love the way Damar starts laughing after Worf breaks Weyoun's neck. Damar was already starting to hate Weyoun and the Dominion for quite some time already.
1 of the best scenes ever. I mean what a great smart ass comment anyone would say for someone who got their ass beat. Perfect, this show is not replaceable
God I loved this part especially the "maybe u should talk to worf again". U could just tell that Samar was looking fwd to meeting the next weyoun a little.
2:23 OMG I have a complete set of those drinking glasses. I inherited them from a friend when she passed away 8 years ago. It's just a coincidence but they are a unique design.
Should have included the follow-up WEYOUN: "The Founder must be told...." DAMAR: "Oh I'm sure she'll understand. But if she doesn't,... I look forward to meeting Weyoun Nine"
Okay, I'll freely admit that DS9 is my favorite of all the Star Trek shows, and that is due in no small part to the aliens in the show, namely the Ferengi, Cardassians, Klingons, and Vorta in particular. I will also admit that my top favorite characters that represent those species are Quark, Garak, Martok, and Weyoun, but I will gladly admit that Damar is by far my second-favorite Cardassian. My second favorite Ferengi is Brunt, my second favorite Klingon is Worf, and my second favorite Vorta is a tie between Iggy Pop's Vorta and Eris.
Me too, but it is a very close tie with TNG. I loved the atmosphere of DS9. So many different and interesting species and characters. I believe my favorite character in DS9 was Odo, then Quark. Gul Dukat is at the top of the list also, aswell as Weyoun, Damar. I loved them all. It was certainly a series that will stand the test of time. Wish they would do an HD remaster like TNG.
@@RequiemPoete fun fact. they invented the whole Vorta being genetically engineered clones because they liked Combs performance so much they had to figure a way to bring his character back and back and back again. even Sisko had to do a double blink when seeing Weyoun 5 for the first time with Dukat.
The thing that always strikes me about the scenes with breen on screen is how much deference that the changelings and vorta treat them with even though it seems to be cover for a very real disdain and even fear of them. Almost like they were only being allies with them so that they wouldnt be enemies and only until they could find a way to defeat them all at once. The breen are a pretty mysterious group, i remember there was a novel in which they played a large role, and while i dont remember all the details, they were treated similarly to how the xindi were in enterprise, kinda. If i recall correctly, they were not composed of a single species, but of several and the suits were more or less simply an obfuscating uniform they all wore while dealing with anyone not in the club, so that very little could be determined about them visually and most of that would be misleading anyway. They were a very closed society that was very technologically advanced, in some ways more so than the federation or other species seen in the shows.
The pure, unadulterated catharsis Damar got out of this is off the flippin' charts. Also, anyone else notice at 1:50 that Cardassian to Damar's left smirking?
So DS9 had the original "Kenny". Did not know that. Always wondered where they got the idea on South Part to make a killing Kenny a running joke for the first year. Here it is. That is too funny.
I don't think he ever lost it. He just went along with Gul Dukat's deal to use the Dominion to get what they wanted, that and he stayed drunk all of the time.
Imagine being a Weyoun and almost never being among your own. Only one ever sort of working at the time. Occasionally you find yourself having to eliminate your immediate predecessor.
Weyoun: "Ah, welcome to our command center!" Breen: "But what about the droid attack on the Wookies?" Weyoun: "Of course, go right ahead." Breen: "...."
I loved that other star trek spinoff series called"The Weyouns Brothers"as star trek does with many other star trek series,they changed the look of the aliens,to make the two weyoun brothers look different than they look here
At 2:35 Damar offers Weyoun-8 a drink from a bottle with a twisted neck.
That is quite toxic!
I guess that would be called after shadowing?
That is subtle!
Oooo that is truly cold LMAO! I never saw it like that 🤣
Well spotted!
It was at this moment that Damar went from forgettable lackey to a bright spot on the show.
Damar was never a bright spot... He lived and died in the shadow of 2 far greater Cardassian characters.
@@CS-zn6pp For most of the show, I'd agree. At the end though, he was able to stand out from them. If you disagree, maybe you should go ask Worf.
I love his character arc, and how he came to respect Kira. DS9 excelled with making you change your view on characters! Also Casey Biggs is an awesome actor
Damar definitely stepped up at the end
@@CS-zn6pp Initially, yes. But in later seasons (and especially the last), he was central and by far the most well developed on the show in that last season.
"They'll just make another copy, you know.
They should have killed me. There's only one Damar."
What a line.
And just like that, I've suddenly noticed Damar, seperate from a generic background Cardassian guy.
Might also been forshadowing
That line, as they leave the cell Damar looking down saying "Pick that up." Drives in what he thinks of him/them....
Such a bad ass dialog with a very typical Worf response
“Pick that up” lol
The writers actually developed him carefully over multiple episodes over years, almost as if they had a long-term story arc to follow.
Weyoun 8: The Founder...she must be told.
Damar: I'm sure she'll understand. If not, I look forward to meeting Weyoun 9.
"maybe you should talk Worf again...mwahahaha" XD
ahah that hit my funny bone harder than "well halloo"
that line was gold ahahaha
that line was delivered perfectly.
A Sheliak: "Utini!"
This part killed me when I first saw it on air.....still love it.
The show writers must have really liked Damar. Great lines and delivery. Bet the crew cracked up when he delivered the "talk to Worf again" line.
At first the actor was dismissive. As an actor he was only a background character for Dukat doing all the crazy schemes and damar was a lackey.

Early on Damar was almost always drunk draining bottle after bottle of kanar and later on he cut way back to a glass or two
“Oh, I’m sure she’ll understand. But if not, I’ll look forward to meeting Weyoun 9.”
Damar had the best character arc. He went from nameless mook to saviour of Cardassia.
it must have been awfully tempting to make wayoun deaths a running gag
"Oh my God, they killed Weyoun!" "You BASTARDS!"
Lol For real. But after Weyoun 7 the Founder lost trust and was ready to run thru clones lol
Well, it kinda was a running gag. I mean they started with Nr. 4 and ended on 9...
Funny enough, that "another instance" part was not originally planned. They just liked Combs Weyoun so much, they had to undo some varporsation.
No, Weyoun 8 was last, I’m afraid.
@@Albukhshi Oh right, 8 was the one killed by Garak.
It is like all the major Characters got to kill a Weyoun once - even himself!
Damar was an expert troll in this one.
Damar had ALOT of great moments...
@@umbrellacorporationwuhanfa3731
Best and surprisingly fastest development and redemption arc. Expertly done. You go from hating him to feeling sad when he died. It didnt feel forced or unnatural.
Goddamn the writing on the show was awesome!!
@@Shockwave33
To be honest I liked Damar from day one.
He's character development is one of the absolute best in the entire series. Same with Dukat.
"Oh you misjudge me, I miss him deeply."
Gets me every time :D
"Well, hellooooooo!" Lol. Gets me everytime! 😂
I miss him deeply...
Maybe you should talk to Worf again.
It was like a father sarcastically telling his 7 year old daughter "hello", after she had overslept 😂😂😂
@@BammerD I like his sense of grim humor!
Kind of reminds me of Seinfeld doing the "voice," where he says "Hellooooo."
'Well Hellloooo!!!'
Great scene, IMO.
If I recall correctly, Casey Biggs said this was his favorite scene as Dumar.

I think the Breen asked for the bounty on the wookies head
When not doing laps of the dunsfold test track ;-) .
That deserves a hardy Damar laugh.
Ya-tay, ya-tay....... yo-toh
Or perhaps they were telling Weyoun 8 that he is suffering from hiberenation sickness.
Lord Jabba offers 35,000... I suggest you take it...
So 4 was killed by a jem-hadar
5 was killed by a teansporter
6 was killed by himself
7 by klingon
And 8 by a cardassian.
To be fair he never died the same way twice so he obviously learned something each time.
Fuzzy Duo We need a festive holiday song, “The Twelve Deaths of Weyoun”.
Hikaru Midomiya probably meant to write transporter
Something in the weyouns genetic recipe makes them prone to being murdered... It's the founders fault.
@@barneyrubble4293 but the founders are perfect. They don't make mistakes. -Weyoun
You know what bugs me? There still is no RUclips video collecting all the Weyoun deaths :(
"Well hellooooo hohoho" "Maybe you should talk to Worf again lol" Casey Biggs is such a legend.
2:20 That scene cracks me up to no end every time. "Well, helloooooooo!" :D
Not as much as Weyoun 7's neck that is for certain.
"I miss him deeply" That bright sarcasm floored me. Damar was awsome.
"pick that up and let's go."
Cardassian savagery.
Hey! They give trials. A judiciary is a hall-mark of advancing society.
Worf letting everyone know the true meaning of "Oh, snap!"
Worf attacked with breakneck speed
In Worf's defense, Weyoun 7 WAS being a pain in the neck
Worf didn't hesitate, and Damar just enjoyed the he'll out of that lol 🤣😂
"Ah, overconfidence. The hallmark of the Weyouns. Maybe the Founders should eliminate that from your genetic recipe next time!"
@@LordZontar 😂
Pissing off a Klingon: Not smart
Pissing off Worf: So you have chosen death.
"Ahahaha! Haaa..over confidence, the hallmark of the weyouns" lol
This was one of the best scenes in all of star trek
I’m kinda glad that the Breen don’t have subtitles. That way, your kind of able to just imagine them saying whatever you want. XD
"*You brought my skullfuck victims?*"
"Of course, go right ahead!"
"*Fuck yeah.*"
Breen as complete psychopaths, perchance?
"Do you have the Cryogenically cooled restrooms installed? I tried a human food called 'burrito' and my three buttcheeks have been clenched the last 100 light-years of the trip."
RequiemPoete XD
Weyoun: "Ah, welcome to our command center!"
Breen: "I need to pee, can I use your bathroom?" (Translation)
Weyoun: "Of course, go right ahead."
lol
Fucking brilliant!
Have you seen those suits? There's no way there isn't a jar for them to piss in somewhere inside. Having to unzip that thing all the time would be a colossal pain in the ass.
@Hikaru Midomiya That'd be a handy trick at cocktail parties.
I laughed so hard at this comment I shit myself a little bit
This Weyoun is broken, bring the next one.
Your Weyoun has stopped responding! Would you like to restart, reformat or reinstall?
Wait a second... Isn't that a something Freddy Mercury allegedly said about a young man's bottom???
_"This clone has a bad motivator!"_
Ah welcome to our Command center, Daft Punk.
Weyoun: I'm always serious
Me: your face/tone say otherwise
"Call that 800 number. We're going to need another Weyoun overnighted here..."
"Well, hello!"
*hardy chuckle
I laughed myself senseless the first time this aired.
This scene is great. I love the way Damar starts laughing after Worf breaks Weyoun's neck. Damar was already starting to hate Weyoun and the Dominion for quite some time already.
1 of the best scenes ever. I mean what a great smart ass comment anyone would say for someone who got their ass beat. Perfect, this show is not replaceable
Unlike Weyoun
I like how at 1:53 you can really see his depression slipping through, as in he would have seriously preferred that Worf had killed him.
God I loved this part especially the "maybe u should talk to worf again". U could just tell that Samar was looking fwd to meeting the next weyoun a little.
Ezri wants a Bashir in the streets but a Worf in the sheets.

Damar was underrated at the time. His acting was really quite good. I felt that malicious glee at the end there.
Damar cracking up on seeing a new Weyoun is a crucially underappreciated joke
"Oh hello! Wakey Wakey, have a nice little nap?"
Should have included the follow-up
WEYOUN: "The Founder must be told...."

I actually thought about adding that to the end, but I didn't want the video to get flagged or something.

Weyoun was a hell of a character. Chilling and mean, oil.

He stared in The Frighteners with Michael J. Fox, too
I have a similar reaction when my superiors are fired.

When StaR Trek wasn't drivel.
"Oh, you misjudge me; I miss him deeply."

"Maybe you should talk to Worf again LMFAO!" Damn.
By the rate that Weyouns die I'm suprised he was only number 7
Damar never liked Weyoun.
that "helloooooooo" is how I often greet customers lol
Amazing how unlucky Weyoun 7 was.
One of my favourite scenes from Season 7.

South park premiered in 1997, this was season 7 of ds9 which aired in 1998. Its unlikely that its the inspiration for kenny. Incould be wrong though.
@@metamorphicorder However, Weyoun had already died a couple of times before Season 7 rolled around.
@@metamorphicorder At the time that the shows were broadcast, I thought the inspiration for both of these motifs was Duncan Idaho (from Dune).
@@MyFiddlePlayer interesting idea.
I swear, the Breen talk like Decepticons transforming.
With that “well hello”, Damar instantly became the second best Cardassian character ever, even if it were his only line.
"Maybe you should talk to Worf again". Brilliant!
I'm starting to see where Valve got some inspiration for the Combine, Dr. Breen & Gman...
I loved Jeffrey Combs who played many ST Characters. I liked him best in his role of Commander Shran, the Andorian in ST: Enterprise.
And this is when Legate Damar went from devoted Dominion citizen to a rebellion leader, regaining his sense of patriotism.
I don't think he ever lost it. He just went along with Gul Dukat's deal to use the Dominion to get what they wanted, that and he stayed drunk all of the time.
"WAIT!... I was going to do that anyway!"
Oh snap literally.
And people dare say Worf isn't a Badass!
Oh snap
exactly.
Giving Worf, or any Klingon for that matter, the choice of death or imprisonment is a dead end move. They would always choose death.
"Oh you misjudged me, I miss him deeply"
Somehow he doesn't sound too sincere.
Imagine being a Weyoun and almost never being among your own. Only one ever sort of working at the time. Occasionally you find yourself having to eliminate your immediate predecessor.
Damar was a blast... and I always enjoy watching Weyoun die.
