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.

Ron S. Jan 28 A wonderful season with a great cast of characters. See more Shawn @WistfulStargazer Jan 28 Deep Space Nine is the darker chapter of traditional Star Trek with complicated stories, characters and politics as they explore a saga where the near utopian Federation confronts its frontiers. This series took a while to grow on me, but ultimately shines, not as a grittier version of Star Trek. . . Rather a hopeful beacon of light in the dark. Even as the shadows of war and religion press upon the unified vision of the Federation, faith in the spirit of unity and progress overcomes. Friends are not forgotten. The valiant are rewarded and adventurers find their place at home, among the stars. See more David K 10/10/2024 One of the best science fiction shows in the history of TV! My favorite heroes, my favorite series and my favorite franchise! See more Jimmy J 07/29/2024 This show is getting really good See more Louis F @Rene.J 04/19/2023 As memorable as a visit to the DMV.
