One of the more controversial episodes DS9 ever produced, “In the Pale Moonlight” brings the Romulans into the Dominion War. Then, in “His Way”, Vic Fontaine brings Odo and Kira together. iTunes Google Play RSS
After the craziness of last week, it’s nice to see Star Trek: Deep Space Nine laying down two quiet character episodes. In “A Simple Investigation”, Odo finds himself drawn to a woman with a mysterious past. In “Business As Usual”, Quark crosses a line. Plus! The O’Briens’ have a baby. That’s all we have to …
Hey look, a Kira episode about a mysterious assassin who targets her old resistance fighter buddies for death, in “The Darkness and the Light”! Hey look, an Odo episode about a mysterious Changeling who targets Odo… with love, in “The Begotten”! Hey look, Trekabout episode 203, in… Trekabout episode 203? iTunes Google Play RSS
It’s been a while since we’ve gotten a good Quark/Odo story, and “The Ascent” mostly… rises… to the occasion. Later, in “Rapture”, Captain Sisko has a moment and goes whole-hog into the Emissary thing. Plus! What the hell is the layout of Nog and Jake’s quarters, anyway? iTunes Google Play RSS
“Let He Who Is Without Sin…” has a reputation as one of the worst episodes of Star Trek ever, but is it really? Later, in “Things Past”, the show repeats “Necessary Evil”, to mixed results. iTunes Google Play RSS
In “Apocalypse Rising”, Sisko, Odo, O’Brien, and Worf head to the Klingon Empire to uncover a Changeling. In “The Ship”, Sisko, Dax, Worf, and Odo get into an Alamo situation with a crashed Dominion ship. In Trekabout Episode 198, Eric and Richard have fun! iTunes Google Play RSS
Quark is having a pretty bad day in “Body Parts”, as he finds out he’s dying. Odo is having a pretty bad day in “Broken Link”, as he finds out he’s dying. Star Trek: Deep Space Nine isn’t dying though–it’s just getting started! iTunes Google Play RSS
