Says Lyle: She trusts Claire and shes also probably quite flattered that Claire would trust her.. Whether its the one act play of The Garrison Commander,or that incredible scene with Dougal and Lieutenant Foster in Prestonpans,one always knew what they were getting with Iras work: professionally written, expertly crafted, inventive and textured words that could be translated easily to the screen. But it was him. Yeah, I am too. The second half did follow the themes of the book and I thought it a little crazy. I LOVE THIS SCENE. But I will be back.. I enjoyed Iras episodes. The most obvious answer is Lord John Grey considering Diana Gabaldons separate novels about that character. Behr wrote or co-wrote some of the most important episodes in the Dominion arc, including "The Jem'Hadar", "The Search", "The Way of the Warrior", "Broken Link", "Apocalypse Rising", "In Purgatory's Shadow", "By Inferno's Light", "Call to Arms", "Sacrifice of Angels", "Tears of the Prophets" and the final episode, "What You Leave Behind". Everything is perfect. Ira was greatly missed in season 3 particularly in the second half. Ira continued: And thats when I really got into the character and started to come up with all of these little pieces that interested me It was the small details: the pouring of the wine out the window, the line the truth bears the weight that no lie can counterfeit. I mean there were things that I just discovered along the way that made it these little things that started to fascinate me and I realized just what a complicatedI never really thought about Black Jack much or that he was a complicated character, except for that he had a wicked dark side to him. How do we get back to that? She doesnt have any announced projects so its hard to see why. Do we really need this kind of aggravation?! But what does that even mean? Hes quite a sweet dog with a mellow personality.. Two classic Star Trek villains return, but maybe theyre not the baddies we once thought they were?

And I looked over and he was standing there, ordering a slice of pizza. We can only hope that Matt and Toni will continue to write and contribute throughout the run of the series. I would love to see Tobias come back for flashbacksPerhaps as Frank for Bree, or even as BJR. $17.80. Claire: You say that buried within you is a decent man. I always say Star Trek isnt about the twenty third and fourth centuries, says Behr. ISB had a style, or panache if you will, to him that stands out pretty clearly. It really cemented the characters of both Black Jack and Claire. Some actors turn to their phones or head to their trailers once cameras stop rolling Heughan and Balfe horse around! I miss the excellent directors from S1 and S2, although Matts directing debut S3E13 was phenomenal! Unlike the original Star Trek or Star Trek: The Next Generation, DS9 embraced a form of serialized storytelling that, while commonplace on television today, was something unexplored on Star Trek when the new series launched in 1993. It was Charlie Brill and it was the most ridiculous thing that ever happened to me.. Moving forward. she has the wherewithal to find that door to the outside, unbolt, unlock and leave it. Lord John and the Brotherhood of the Blade, "I Give You My Body": How I Write Sex Scenes, Outlander: Season 1, Vol. Its a pithy juxtaposition of the sumptuous decadence and ultimate trivality of the French court. He fielded complaints regarding the shows supposedly darker tone, its handling of religion through the Bajoran faith, and narrative arcs that extend throughout multiple seasons rather than the typical one-and-done plots. He was the executive producer and showrunner on Crash, executive producer on Syfy's Alphas, and a writer and co-executive producer on Outlander. Sure, he had to read the book for background, but his job was to keep the room focused on adapting the beloved book into a captivating television series. His rescuing her and how their saving grace was that they were in the eye of the hurricane which took them to shore and the picture went up and up showing the whole hurricane.- just loved that. Along with fellow Deep Space Nine producer Robert Hewitt Wolfe, Behr also co-wrote Legends of the Ferengi, a collection of short stories involving the Rules of Acquisition. He was on The Ed Sullivan Show the night the Beatles premiered and he spent the rest of his career, him and his wife, claiming that that destroyed their career because the Beatles just took all the publicity. Fergus and Ian were adorable and needed their own show, but even they couldnt erase the others. Yes, I liked season three too. Additionally in watching BJR, it made me afraid for Frank being involved in Intelligence and interrogations in WW2 as Claire mentioned. The writers have captured some, but reading the books had me in stitches over and over. But the effect one screenwriter can have on a film, or even a television show, should neither be understated nor underestimated. and pursue a career in writing comedies for television and film. But by twisting that theme with a sound never heard on Outlander before, its a sonic cue for the listener that what we are watching on screen is off, foreign, and completely opposite of what we love and/or trust. ' Behr was rejuvenated after producingHarry Dean Stantons final film, and he was eager to redirect that artistic zeal into What We Left Behind. Time heals all wounds, and to discover a retroactive appreciation sent a shock of verve into the showrunner. Were not meant to be futuristic. It was an amazing catalyst for so much.

Ira Steven Behr (born October 23, 1953) is an American screenwriter and television producer, best known for his work on Star Trek, especially Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, on which he served as showrunner and executive producer. What We Left Behind boasts some impressive footage, restored to HD for the documentary. Thanks for the very kind words! As those responsible for establishing that quality move on, may the writing, directing, costuming, etc. Starz "Prestonpans" details that stunning, bloody, and controversial victory for the Jacobites over the British. Another fascinating aspect of our podcast conversation was when we learned how much trust Ron put into Iras hands because, as Ira stated it, it was his job to run the writers room in Rons absence. Even if Ron were present, Ira still had to help smooth issues the other writers couldnt handle. Not to say that it was bad, or that it needed an overhaul it just felt different. I went back and listened to our podcast interview with Ira before writing this piece, and I was once again surprised at how close the two were on a professional level. We also lost Anne Kenney as a fine writer in S3 and I think that contributes. [1] He studied at Lehman College in New York City. Yahoo!! I was so sad when you didnt write J&Cs reunion. But it was not until Deep Space Nine, which included a Ferengi character in its regular cast, that the Ferengi were truly explored in any depth. Behr returned to Star Trek in 1993 as a supervising producer for the pilot of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine (1993) and became a co-executive producer in the second season . Perhaps he could do no wrong in her eyes, but he did act that way and she forgave him. From 2014 to 2016 Behr served as writer and co-executive producer on Outlander, alongside fellow Deep . He again worked with Ren Echevarria on season two of Dark Angel (2000) as a consulting producer.

Obviously, once all the negotiations and contracts are signed, Sony and Starz will make the announcement, and it will be official. In fact, in our interview, Ira says quite the opposite by referring to BJR as a sociopath. Why salute that were old, you know? he laughs. His diverse talents and experiences as a writer led him to the position of executive producer late in the third season. Better yet, what the heck is the point behind her conflict with Claire again? A good example was the jump from Jamie and Claire in the shaving scene to being completely in the middle of a huge hurricane. That was my first thought. $42.95. I actually appreciate that you disagree with me. To me a good storyteller is not only the glue that holds things together, he or she is the one who captivates and weaves that magic around the viewer, so the dont dare look away, leave the room, and are anticipating the next episode. He was not aching to direct a documentary looking back at his time with the wormhole. We're currently offline. I think you hit the nail on the head. I quickly glomed on onto the fact, thanks to Armin [Shimmerman] and the way he played Quark, that they were 20th century human beings. In stock. For quite a long time, I placed responsibilityfor the changed dynamic on elements that were added to Season 3. Between structure, using simple writing tools, understanding character and having enough of a relationship with the showrunner so that he can translate Rons words to paper and carry them out with the other writers, its my belief that Ira is missed mostly because he could be leaned on to fix writing issues that appear to be too complicated for others who may be too invested in what happened in the book series. The prime example is the greed-driven Ferengi who, with Armin Shimermans Quark, Max Grodenchiks Rom and Aaron Eisenbergs Nog were offered their place in the spotlight. On Monday, May 13, Shout! It was a special episode and also they let us throw money at it with reckless abandon.. But like a well-written scene does, it continues to funnel down even further: BJR: I promised that I would reveal myself to you. We look at the impact of losing Ira Steven Behr after Season 2. (season 3 Galis to me was ruined. But the time travel shit? (e in b)&&0=b[e].o&&a.height>=b[e].m)&&(b[e]={rw:a.width,rh:a.height,ow:a.naturalWidth,oh:a.naturalHeight})}return b}var C="";u("pagespeed.CriticalImages.getBeaconData",function(){return C});u("pagespeed.CriticalImages.Run",function(b,c,a,d,e,f){var r=new y(b,c,a,e,f);x=r;d&&w(function(){window.setTimeout(function(){A(r)},0)})});})();pagespeed.CriticalImages.Run('/mod_pagespeed_beacon','https://moviebill.com/stories/star-trek-deep-space-nine-what-we-left-behind-ira-steven-behr-interview/','8Xxa2XQLv9',true,false,'24U4_rsZndw'); But God damn, every time we tried, it was like you spent a half the time talking about it in the writers room or trying to justify and figure it all out There were some funny conversations about about time travel. Thank you!! Thank you for this great in-depth analysis. Thank you! 12.5K subscribers Ira Steven Behr joined us for our May 15 live chat with Alexander Siddig to answer fan questions about DS9 including his thoughts on Bashir and Garak's relationship, why. It is the one scene I can never watch again. Blake, Just a quick question, remember in Dragonfly in Amber when Bree was telling Roger how she got into Franks lockbox where his letters to the Rev were? Balfe (getting a touch-up to Claires gray-tinged hair) has enjoyed playing Claire at different parts of her life as the show hopscotches through the years. And no matter how finely dressed the Frasers are, since they are neither trivial or decadent, they are ill-suited to be there. Not only did DS9 offer growth for its diverse cast of specific characters, it managed to expand fictional cultures and bring depth to alien races that had appeared as one note on TNG. Theres already heat between new arrival Claire (Caitriona Balfe) and Jamie (Sam Heughan) when she tends to him in Episode 2, Castle Leoch. During casting, with Heughan locked in, an intimate screen test sealed the deal for Balfe: There [was] definitely on-camera chemistry, exec producer Ronald D. Moore says. Maybe a year. I guess he was still going to conventions, and he was just really excited especially for Avery, who doesnt get excited in this way a lot about the young fans who were not alive when the show was on the air. When Behr was running things on Deep Space Nine, many of his interactions with the fan community were negative. Most seemed to be either filler, or one note, with one boring objective. I thought Doldrums and Heavan and Earth could have been condensed to one episode, Uncharted could have been a half episode, and the events of The Bakra and Eye of the Storm could have been expanded. Claire pauses, tears welling at the bottom of her eyelids. Trisha really worked with getting the costumes early, slightly bigger-looking and more voluminous so that we could hide things under, says the actress, now mother to a baby boy. Hes worked on many projects and in a variety of environments, but nothing compares to the fire that burns within the Star Trek audience. Why is that so cool? While I didnt always agree with Iras take on the material, in the end I believe the show benefitted from the push/pull in the room between the book people and the non-book people.
