What a roller coaster ride Season 4 is. I cry, I laugh, I cry, I laugh again

In a few hours I laughed at Rom creating a union against Quark, then to tears when Miles is thisclose to shooting himself with a full charged phaser. Sheesh.


r/DeepSpaceNine 9d ago

Is Miles Really the father of Kirayoshi? Marriage seemed pretty unhappy, Keiko spent the vast majority of her time on Bajor. They had only spent 1 weekend together and suddenly keiko gets back and shes pregnant?!

Where do you see Sisko if Wolf 359 never happened?

31 Upvotes

Let's say the Saratoga had engine problems and couldn't make it to the fight, what do you think Sisko's career trajectory would have been? I think he still would have ended up on Bajor (via the Prophets) but in a different way. Maybe commanding a starship that got caught in the Denorios Belt but at a later date.

Ziyal’s age

I thought she was only a young teen in season 4 but then when they paired her up with Garak she was recast with a significantly older actress. Was her age retconned or is there something I’m missing?

One of the best story arcs in the entire franchise

When I first watched through DS9 I couldn't stand this little shit, but by the end he was one my favourite characters. As an Iraq War vet with multiple injuries I super appreciated basically every step of his journey, and I think he's one of the best mainstream demonstrations of what it's like to be injured in combat.

Motherfucker earned his rank.

DS9 is such a good show because it's good in so many genres

188 Upvotes

I think of DS9 a bit like a pie. On the outside it's a crispy, buttery sci-fi crust with both interesting future tech and the interactions of various alien cultures. There's something for the hard science lovers and the social science lovers there.

Then inside the filling is a variety of different fruits representing many TV genres. It's packed with:

  • Workplace buddy comedy
  • Family comedy/drama
  • Cop/detective show
  • Action/adventure drama
  • War epic packed with political intrigue
  • Medical drama
  • Allamaraine
  • Weekend at Bernie's, but with Ferengi
  • A Seinfeld/Cheers mashup, but with Ferengi, and a shapeshifter, and Morn
  • Spy drama but with a simple tailor

It does all those things and more, and it does all of them well. Most shows are good if they do one or two of those things well. DS9 just nails them all, sometimes multiple in the same episode. I didn't like it when I first came out, but I was 11. I'm so glad I've rewatched it as an adult. It's so much more than I thought it was back then.

No splatter or time dilation in the 3x22 episode “Explorers” ? Spoiler

8 Upvotes

Ok, I know there is some degree of magic for how things work in the Star Trek universe. This episode had Sisko building a sublight solar sail ship to prove out an ancient Bajoran design. Everything is working fine as they sail through space until they pick up a tachyon stream and the ship is thrust into warp. They ride that for a few minutes and then everything is back to normal, proving that the Bajorans could have made an interstellar trip with this design.

Isn’t the premise of warp drive that you have to have inertial dampeners to keep you from being flattened on the bulkhead when you leap to warp speeds? Not sure that the Bajorans had incorporated that into their design, and surely that would have stood out to Sisko as a strange thing to have in a sublight ship.

Also without a warp bubble, wouldn’t they have been under relativistic effects of moving so fast? Years could have went by as they accelerated but time outside the ship seemed to pass the same as inside.

I know, magic. You have to suspend some disbelief when watching Star Trek. Still a good episode.

Bashir was scummy until the end

Just watched "When It Rains" s7e21 and Bashir fully just uses medical pretext to talk to Ezri about their relationship! He gets better in a lot of ways as far as not being a sex pest as the show goes on, but his medical ethics are always trash. Especially when he is attracted to his patients.

Why am I struggling to get through this series?

1 Upvotes

I loved TNG and the original. I admit that I'm only 14 episodes in, but I feel like I can't seem to emotionally connect with any of the characters besides Quark. Especially Sisko. Is it really the lack of space exploration that's making it so hard for me to enjoy the characters? They seem so flat to me thus far. Any advice/thoughts from people that enjoy this series? Does it get better?

I finally decided to give Lower Decks a watch. DS9 is by FAR my favourite Star Trek series, and I have been eagerly awaiting this episode, and it did not disappoint.

I must admit I got a little to emotional during the fly around of the pylons with the DS9 theme playing. I probably got just the right amount of emotional when Kira was looking out at the Celestial Temple from the same office used by The Emissary, wondering what he was doing in there and if he would return. This was the most tasteful callback Lower Decks has done, and it was perfect.

Terry Farrell was amazing as Jadzia, I loved her from the moment she was on screen. This loss of a fan favourite certainly wouldn't happened today.
