(More customer reviews)With glee I write this review for my favorite show of all time.
If you passed on the Deep Space phenomenon at the time, you were'nt alone. Many who had interest in TNG didn't really take to DS9 at first, myself included. I started watching it again in the second season and it slowly grab held of me. There are a few bad episodes ("Melora" for one), but overall these are the most fascinating, imaginative stories ever collected into a series of any kind. It's a saga no doubt, a soap opera of sci-fiction, but Deep Space went so much further. With great special effects and audio, the production value alone was entertaining. But the episodes were extremely dark at times too, with the greatest characters, a healthy budget and fantastic writing. This combination led "Kira" in an interview to state that she believes this will be one of the most time enduring Television shows ever created. I really agree. It generally becomes a sleeker show over time, but always interesting and asking extremely dark moral questions. My favorite episode of all time "In the Pale Moonlight", I believe is in the sixth season. An episode where the absolute moral boundary of war is questioned and Sisko and Garek do the craziest sh*# to assure security for the federation. It's a Narly episode. Garek actually kills a Romulan Senator by sabotaging his craft and Sisko actually trades biogenic weapons material for information. All to draw the Romulans into the war against the Dominion, I was stunned. There's another episode where the Dominion actually engineers an attack against themselves in order to destroy the military of a planet inwhich they eventually occupy. The way the episodes fold back into one another, is masterful. Don't miss it, treat yourself to extraordinary, well-thought-out sci-fi for a change. I own them all and plan on hermetically-sealing them for future generations. :)
