Customer Reviews of Star Trek Deep Space Nine - The Complete Second Season

Deep Trek - Cardassians become friendly, the Jem'hader show themselves and echoes of the Dominion.
The Star Trek Collection is a worthy hobby and certainly the largest of the television series DVD Collections (The Original Series, The Next Generation, Deep Space Nine, Voyager and Enterprise). At around 880 minutes, it is 4 episodes (1 Disc) less than TNG, and at least 2 Discs less than TOS. However in total, for the definitive, Star Trek collection, we are still looking at approx 30 boxes with 700 hours of viewing. That is 1 month of non-stop Star Trek. No DVD series comes remotely close to that. Get going collecting right now and build up on each succession over the years. By the end you will have a very serious anthology that defines the word awe. This is the kind of item that requires 1 hour a day of your time for the next few years. It is a cherished memory that served your fathers and will serve your children also. Our very planet, Earth, has advanced because of Gene Roddenberry's admirable concept. Roddenberry nailed the premise of the series when he said that he wanted to create a show with characters that we could look up too. `The Bridge' members are like our family. Watch what they do. Then go and spend your life striving for the same on Earth. What engineer, medic, scientist, teacher, worker can not say that Star Trek has not influenced them? The show is this significant in the development of our species. Even Christians respect and quote its authority and it is not hard to see why. The DVD case may be the best of the lot. The shadowy design is foreboding of a darker trek inside. The case opens to reveal the 6 discs and a collectors' DVD-ROM of a section of a model graphic of DS9 (collect all complete the computer model). The discs are held in an open (no cardboard covering) plastic flip holder like in the TOS seasons. There are 4 episodes per disc. However the last disc, disc 6 is devoted to Star Trek interviews and trailers with the usual expected extras...and then some more. The episodes are ordered not in the sequence they where filmed, but in the sequence that they aired, however each episode has been numbered according to the order they where filmed in. This means on one disc you have shows 4, 2, 12 and 1, in that order. The sound has also been remastered to 5:1 Dolby Digital! Since the show was shot in full frame, these dimensions are retained. <

>Star Trek, Deep Space Nine (DS9), Season two bridges the gap between Bajorans and Cardassians by creating more episodes where they both work together in helping the federation to defeat some evil force. The same crew is back. DS9 is commanded by Benjamin Sisko. Jake Sisko is his son. The mysterious Odo, who does not know what species he is, is the station's metamorphosing police constable and a Bajoran operative. Doctor Bashir is the Starfleet doctor and Chief O'Brien is chief engineer. Quark is a Ferengi host who owns a casino and bar. Major Kira is Sisko's first in command, and a Bajoran. Lt. Commander Jadzia Dax is a Trill woman (and a long term friend of Sisko) assigned by Starfleet as technical advisor. Gul Dukat is a leading Cardassian. The new addition is the spy Cardassian Garak. <

>Season One of DS9 is mostly about war, terrorism, trills, orphans, gravity, female Ferengis, unsolved murders, phantasms, moving colonies, swindlers, odo's origins, weapons of mass destruction, delusions, holograms, micro-universe, love, revenge, neurological implants, alternative realities, traitors, kangaroo courts and the Jem'hader. <
> <
>Best episodes are Rules of Acquisition, The Alternate, Paradise, Shadowplay, The Wire and The Jem'Hadar. DS9 Season two may not be the best of the DS9 seasons but it does have some interesting episodes and it is more of a build-up to the new threat of the Dominion and the Jem'hader. By the end of Season two you will be expecting that war looms on the other side of the wormhole but for that you will have to wait for Season three.

Three and a half stars
I gave the first season a chance, and was surprised that I was entertained, but noted some problems. Alot of those problems were fixed with this season. Firstly, this season starts doing some really interesting things, twist endings, exploration of more interesting cultures in the gamma quadrant, and the introduction of the dominion. Further, the show starts to show some real development of the characters. This show is certainly no star trek the next generation, but in many ways that is a very good thing. Trying to be a more of a poltical show, with religious allegories, and such is something more akin to the original show. I like the flow of the show. That being said, there is still more room to grow. The great episodes for the most part are the non continiuty episodes (those not involving bajor religion or the dominion). Many of the stand alone episdoes are far better written and acted. However, the last episode really begins to show that there is more to come, and far more interesting things in store. I look forward to season 3, to see where the show progresses.
