A spinoff of "Star Trek: The Next Generation," "Deep Space Nine" is set on a space station near the planet Bajor. This time, Commander Benjamin Sisko is in charge of a diverse crew. But unlike other "Star Trek" series, there's no USS Enterprise to help them. Sisko and the crew must fight off rival alien species who want control of Deep Space Nine because of its strategic position close to a wormhole, which allows speedy travel to the far reaches of space.

Last night's premiere of Deep Space Nine was peopled with well-developed, fascinating, engrossing characters. Go to Full Review Hal Boedeker Miami Herald 03/05/2021
Like its forerunners, the series offers a morality play every bit as gripping as the hardware and special effects. Dialogue about wormholes and phasers might turn off non-Trekkers, but the series makes its essential points in the simplest terms.

I'm happy about what I've seen of Sisko and crew. So far. This trek may take liberties with the legend, but at its heart, it appears to be the same wise old friend I've known all my life. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
