DS9, while not one that I watched regularly, did have the BEST. Trek. Episode. EVAH!!!!!!1!
Trials and Tribbleations.

I'm sorry, dad. You know I would never have tried to save River's life if I had known there was a dinner party at risk.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
Trials and Tribbleations.
It also had one of the best Trek episodes on the other end of the spectrum: "The Visitor." Talk about a gut-punch.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Is that the Jake ep?
And don't forget "Far Beyond the Stars."

Yup.

Absolutely brilliant. One of the things I liked about the last season was (whitefonted for those who haven't seen it) was the way they returned to the idea that the Trekverse was a figment of Benny Russell's imagination. That was a nice use of continuity.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"
There were so many good eps.
The one with Sisko where he agrees to Garek sabotaging a Romulan ship to get them involved in the war
As has already been mentioned, the Harris Yulin ep and the Dax ep with the old-time Klingons going into battle together were both stellar.
I'm glad I have close friends who ponied up for the discs so that I can watch. I've missed it more than I thought I would.

Nothing quite offset the loss of Jadzia though. While I came to like the actress well enough, and some of her charcter arc, if they had to replace Terry Ferrell, they should have brought Dax back as a man, and not as Ally McTrill.

Oh, *yeah*. Although anything with Garak, and I'm there.
How about the two parter where the Founders lure the Tal Shiar and the Obsidian Order into a trap and basically destroy them? Where Garak tortures Odo? So good.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
My viewing may have been colored by the fact that I read a story called Reveille yesterday, which Vonnie recced, which was both hot and believable Daniel/Jack.
HA! I pimp, therefore I am. Uh, wait... that didn't come out right.
Shalott is the same freakishly talented gal who wrote the mind-bendingly genderfucked Master and Commander fic, you know, the one in which Aubrey turns into a woman? She also vids like a dream--the Silence of the Lambs vid on the Vividcon disc set to Alanis Morissette's "Uninvited", that was shalott too, IIRC.
Aw. It's so sweet of everybody to whitefont the DS9 stuff for me. It's a lovely gesture, but you don't have to feel obliged to do so on my behalf. Starting this late in the game, I'm at peace with being spoiled for latter season plotty points.
The thing is, SpikeTV's DS9 airing schedule is on crack. I checked my TiVo queue last night, and over the next week, it's set to record ep 4 from season 1, an arc-y two-parter from S2 ("Marquis", which I'd skipped during the marathon), and something from the mid S3. The hell? What do they have against airing the episodes in order, for Chrissakes? I may just have to Netflix the rest of the seasons. Bah.

yeah, I know (of) Shalott. And yeah, she's freakishly talented. That Silence of the Lambs vid gives me the willies. t twitch

Also, SpikeTV's site? As far as I can figure? Doesn't actually tell you what eps they're airing. I keep having to check other schedules.
If you want to know if an ep is worth catching, you can always give a yell.
