“Deep Space Nine is incredible!” If you are a Star Trek fan, you will love Deep Space Nine … maybe even more! Season Two was more exciting than Season One … If that is actually possible! Absolutely know there will be no let down in Season Three. Of course I watched the series on TV, but to be able to see them over and over with the DVD’s, who could ask for anything better?

Only Kira Nerys would risk going to war over an earring. With the witty and wise second-season opener “The Homecoming,” the writers started taking chances with the direction of Deep Space Nine–and the payoffs are immediate and far-reaching. It’s the first episode in a complex trilogy involving the fate of the tenuous Bajoran Provisional Government, an extremist group called the Circle, and a legendary member of the resistance whom Sisko believes might be able to unite Bajor.

Continuing its blend of action, mystery, intergalactic politics, and religion, the second season gave prominent parts to Jadzia Dax (“Invasive Procedures,” “Playing God,” “Blood Oath”), Kira Nerys (“The Collaborator,” in which Odo gives the first sign of his feelings toward her), the Cardassian Garak (“Cardassians”), Odo (“The Alternate”), Chief O’Brien (“Whispers,” “Tribunal”), Commander Sisko (“Paradise”), and Quark (“Profit and Loss”), and Dr. Bashir developed relationships with both O’Brien (“Armageddon Game”) and Garak (“The Wire”).

Highlight episodes include the alternate-universe “Crossover,” which pays homage to the original series’ “Mirror, Mirror,” and the two-part spotlight on the Maquis (first introduced in The Next Generation), a loose-knit organization of disenfranchised Federation colonists who resort to terrorist methods to provoke a new war between the Federation and the Cardassians. By the end of season 2, the only thing DS9 lacked was a really good villain. It got three for the price of one. Turns out the Dominion (first discovered in the underappreciated Ferengi spotlight “Rules of Acquisition”) is a trinity of evil: the Founders, the Vorta, and the Jem’Hadar, those born-and-bred bad guys whose mission in life is to serve the Founders. The season-closer “The Jem’Hadar” is an intelligent, powerful episode that reveals all–and nothing–about the Dominion. –Kayla Rigney

The Season where DS9 came into its own
This season was even better than the first, and really gets the ball rolling in the direction it heads for the rest of the series. You can really tell the actors are really getting in tune with their characters in this season, and the story lines help them get there.

Make sure you check all of your DVDs before the return/exchange deadline, my first set was defective on the very last disc, but my second copy runs excellent. I’m confident the glitch was a fluke, but it never hurts to check!…more info

Asian Versions cheaper for a reason…
For DS9 lovers on a budget, the cheaper asian versions available on the used marketplace are enticing. They are indeed about half the price of the US version. I ordered the 2nd season this way and found it to be actually slightly inferior in quality for viewing, and markedly inferior in packaging even though it was bought new. Several episodes seemed to cut off the last few seconds to squeeze it on to the DVD, and we had tracking problems (slowww) and voice to action synching problems occaisionally. Mind you it got the job done, just not quite there for quality, which can be annoying. The packaging, really bad. The DVD’s are stacked in a thin paperboard box with foam sheets between. The box and the DVD’s have really bad airbrushed illustrations of something similar to the star’s faces. Quite amusing, but not if you just paid for it. My advice is to buy a lightly used US version instead of a “new” Asian one if the money is an issue. I bought a used Season 1 US version and it was perfect, only a small scratch on the box. The DVD’s were in perfect shape, and no cut off scenes!…more info

The Story Continues
Here we are then with DS9 series 2. If you saw the first, and were not that impressed, dont give up. DS9 has so much to offer the viewer. The first series had trouble finding its feet, but with each series it gets better and better. This series begins to introduce elements that will continue through to the conclusion of DS9. When you have finished with this DVD you will be gagging for season 3. The best trek, just got better….more info
