    Space Karen makes me exceptionally mad with her smug grin. I love the actress. Her acting is why we all hate Winn Adami so much.

      It really does take some insane acting chops to be able to get people to fucking hate you that much

          I think the nicest people are the best at playing awful terrible people. If they were actually awful they wouldn’t know how to act it.

          she was brilliant in ds9 and then she literally made me yell at the screen in anger when she played grandma gallagher in shameless.

          and then i watched big sky and she touched my heart as the all-seeing/all-caring small town school teacher; fletcher was incredible.

      Exactly. Watching her was always a new adventure in the book The Lion, the Witch, and the audacity of this bitch!

    My hatred towards this character goes so far that I had to skip all episodes with her on all my recent DS9 binges. Great actress though.

        There’s a simple reason why: Having gone no contact with my family and even moving abroad for being Lgbt, I’ve had my full real life share of condescending religious nutjobs for an entire lifetime. It was great to watch this despicable character during my first 2 DS9 binges, but I can’t deal with it anymore… ^^

      And it was this comment that got me to realize it’s the same actress. Amazing I never saw that before. Albeit I haven’t seen Over the Cuckoo’s Nest in like over ten years but still lol

      Hate. I ‘love to hate’ cornball hammy sort of evil like Ducat. Winn is the sort of evil you meet on the subway, everyone knows one or two of her, and that hits harder

        i wonder if that’s what inspired her for this role.
