I'm not sure it's entirely due to them having chemistry. I think at least part of them is just not knowing what to do with the character.

Like, I like the character herself, and their chemistry was cool, but the actual subplot concerning her in the episodes was kind of dull for me (although that might have been less so had her character stuck around so it seemed less like a hallucinatory thing). And I'm not sure where else they would have gone with her character.

On the politics side of things, I'm not sure how many storylines they could have fit in around the Romulan politics end - they only got one in there and it wasn't that strong (or that Romulan). And on the personal level, Kira was already in a relationship with Odo. And while I think that's a terrible dumb relationship, it's difficult to see us getting a lot of Cretak * Kira scenes when the writers already had a character they wanted to play her off of.

I don't discount the possibility that the chemistry might have had something to do with it. But I think a lot of it is just the difficulty of writing a big show with tons of moving parts when you only have one season left.

The thing about them having chemistry is mostly a joke. Like maybe it has a grain of truth in it. But I'm mostly kidding.

And I dunno. I think they could have done interesting stuff with her if they really wanted to. They chose to go in a different direction. I thought they were gonna go into Bajor-Romulus political relations and end up making stuff happen with Romulus and the Federation. Maybe someone wrote a tie-in novel about it but I have trouble getting into those.

But yeah, season 7 is pretty late in the game to be introducing another new character, on top of Ezri. Maybe I shouldn't have said main. Maybe I should have said recurring minor character.

Yeah my vision of what happened is that they went into season 7 thinking they were going to do a ton of shit with the Romulans (who had, after all, only entered the war in the middle of the season before) and then somewhere early in the season they realized that wasn't going to be possible and chucked everything out.
