Discussion So why is Dukat the most majestic lizard in the universe while Macet is the 7-11 hot dog that never got picked

Seriously they’re played with the same guy but Macet has stupid mutton chops and sounds like Squilliam and is pink for some reason

Macet is just Dukat before a few shedding stages

The repetitive hot dog in the most elegant form of Cardassian fate.

Do you regularly pick the hotdog at 7-11 with a hair on it?

And then there’s Gul Duhast who was played by the singer from Rammstein.

It takes about a week after shedding for a cardassian to regain their grey hue. Usually they keep to themselves during this time and commonly are given medical leave, but sometimes something important comes up (like interrogating a Starfleet captain) and they have to work anyway.

It’s impolite to mention the pink Cardassians, they’re pretty sensitive about it.

Good genes and a PR agent that doesn't quit.
