      Sisko was an emotional guy (seasons 4 onward) so Brooks played him as such.

        Love Sisko - and yes he is more interesting than Picard.

          As an actor, Brooks can chew up scenery when he gets gung-ho crazy. Case in point in season 5's "For The Uniform". He's going batsh** crazy in that particular episode.
          Honestly, the only actor out of the 5 captains who really sold me was Patrick Stewart's. Second would be Mulgrew's Janeway (even though she went apesh** nuts in season 6's "Equinox part 2". I did like how she had to be more emotionally invested in her crew than other captains since they were stuck out in the middle of nowhere.

            That's what I liked about him and why he's my favorite Captain (leader). When he's cool he's the coolest. When he's hot he's steaming. He chews ass like a drill sergeant but with no cursing.
            Sisko totally captured the phrase "chew bubble gum and kickass" except he always had bubble gum.
            No Sitcoms! No Sports! No Reality! Death to the new timeline!

              You can't possibly be serious? His acting is actually terrible, it's really terrible, Such ATROCIOUS delivery in most of his lines.
              The only exceptional acting is his overly melodramatic (but understandably so) racism episode when he wrote the newspaper.
              He's a genuinely terrible actor in this show, but I perservere regardless.

                No way you're opinion, though respectable - is off base.

                    Oh, I thought Avery Brooks acting performance on the show overall was fantastic.

                      Shakespeare doesn't come to mind at all.
                      His stilted delivery felt like he was reading his lines off a cue card.
                      He never really seemed to fit the role.
                      It is laughable to say he is better than Stewart.

                        Avery Brooks is better than Patrick Stewart.
