[glow=red,2,300]Warning to children and adults easily offended please avoid looking at the next statement![/glow] DS9 sucked great big sweaty hairy donkey balls! It sucked so much they had to add a ship to get them off the damn station cos it was so dull on there!!! Even then it sucked!!! Most of the characters were just plain annoying. Sisko sucked almost as bad as Janeway in command. But i still liked Voyager. The simple fact of it is Star "TREK", yes notice that, "TREK" is about exploration, not sitting round in a dump of a space station whinging. DS9 was almost as bad as Babylon 5! Yes i agree Voyager was not as good as TNG, but TNG got the formula just right, good writing, good acting. Anything after TNG is bound to be less impressive. But even TNG had its downside, Wesley Crusher anyone? Dr Pulaski anyone? But anyway enough of that

DS9 made me think too. It made me think: How the hell can they do this? Roddenberry said he didn't want DS9 made. The creator of Star Trek thought it was a bad premise.
But hey what's done is done. since his death almost everything produced under the banner of Star Trek or his name has been pretty shite. Majel Barrett has a lot to answer for. Hell as his wife she didn't even take his name until after his death. She only did that to cash in.
It has turned into a corporate enterprise (oops sorry about the pun) designed to rake in money rather than produce truly throught provoking programing. Which is a shame.
Bring back TNG!!!!!!!!

DS9 had alot of good things in it... but it seems that sometimes it is overshadowed by stupid episodes without any point of relation to the story... but it still had some pretty good thuoght provoking episodes!
and i just like sisqo... coz... they seem to seccesfuly capture his human side..

I found more though provoking elements in Voyager a series that is entertainment driven.
DS9 was a poor premise terrible setting, wasting establised and new characters alike. The few thought provoking moments were so hard to find due to the boredom of plowing through the rest of the series.
Siskos human side? hehe thats a good one. Mornwas a more interesting and well developed character. I found Sisko to be terribly 2 dimensional, lacking any real redeeming qualities.
Just look to Picard for a truly great captain and fantastic performance. So many elements making up a properly rounded character. With stories/performances showing more humanity then the whole of the series of DS9. Check out Chain of Command 1+2, the Inner Light and Family for a few fine examples.

Did anybody notice how many times Sisko showed signs of insanity (visions "time travel delusions" etc.) and went around being worshipped as the son of God (well the prophets) and yet he was still left in a position of command?

TNG and DS9 both have music that fits the feel of the series.
TNG bold and lively giving a feeling of action.
DS9 dull as dishwater giving a feeling of stagnation and emptiness.
