Been watching DS9 Season two and have been very impressed with the quality. I remembered it being “pretty good” but in my memory it was "the season with “The Circle” trilogy, “Melora”, “Rivals” and “The Maquis”, episodes and story lines that never really did it for me. I think that made me forget how many really good one-off episodes were also here, to name a few:

  • “Necessary Evil”
  • “Rules of Acquisition”
  • “The Alternate”
  • “Armageddon Game”
  • “Whispers”
  • “Paradise”
  • “Shadowplay”

All bangers!

Also I love how this season ever so slowly drip-drops dominion references culminating with the season finale “The Jem Hadar”

    Hell ya! One of Quark’s finest scenes:

    They have weapons. You have weapons. Everyone has weapons. But right now, no one has a clear advantage. So the price of peace is at an all-time low. This is the perfect time to sit down and hammer out an agreement. Don’t you get it? Attacking the Cardassians now will only escalate the conflict and make peace more expensive in the long run. Now, I ask you, is that logical?

      I love the moments when it’s demonstrated that Ferengi can be actually very astute when it comes to diplomacy/interplanetary relations… their culture just has a completely different set of values.
