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.

Ed Gross Empire Magazine 10/23/2017
Michael Dorn joins the show as TNG's Worf and Avery Brooks comes to life like never before as Sisko after he shaves his head and grows a goatee. Go to Full Review
Aaron Couch The Hollywood Reporter 10/23/2017
With impressive understatement, the two-parter at the center of the show's fourth season - and the entire series as a whole - quietly drives home the scale of the danger facing humanity. Go to Full Review
Zack Handlen AV Club 10/23/2017
It was good. The show has maintained the step up in quality of the third season, and found ways to deepen the Dominion conflict, as well as exploring character relationships. Go to Full Review

The Visitor is, quite simply, one of the finest hours of Star Trek ever made. Go to Full Review
Evan Saathoff Birth.Movies.Death. 10/23/2017
Great characters, each with their own specific voice and a steady stream of sharp, knowing dialog offered them, that it's a casual pleasure just watching this crew hang out. The bad news is DS9 does not reach this quality level until Season Four Go to Full Review

At this point the only reason to keep on watching is to see if it can get any worse. See more 03/22/2022 With the introduction of Worf and the action-packed Klingon arc, the show builds from the first three seasons straight into the stratosphere. So many fantastic episodes that I'd just end up listing half the season, but who can talk about Season 4 without mentioning The Visitor? Spectacular television. Another special shout out to Sisko losing the hair and Avery Brooks finally completely owning the role. See more Read all reviews
