    Comment


      Thanks everybody for making me feel so welcome here, somtimes it can be intimidating to join a new thread when its been around for a while and every body knows each other, but you have made me feel welcome from the start.

      My top three episodes although hard to pick from so many are:

      1) For the Uniform: A brilliant story, brilliantly acted.
      2) The seige at AR558: The grittiness of war were so well done.
      3) In the pale moonlight: Garak and Sisko should have had more episodes together.

      Honouable Mention: The sound of her voice: A nice episode with an emotional ending.

      Favourite Characters:
      1) Chief O'Brien - a good friendly well rounded character.
      2) Ben Sisko - Sisko and Picard both sit at the top of the captains tree for me.
      3)Garak - what is there not to like about Garak.

      Honourable Mention: Weyoun - comedy and seriousness in good quantities.

      Best line: Weyoun (after the Defiant comes through the wormhole back to DS-9) - Well... time to pack,

      What is everybody elses favourite line?
      LIKES: Half-Life, Half-Life 2, ST: DS-9, ST: TNG, Eric Clapton, GTA 4, SGU, MW + MW2, Red Dead Redemption,
      Scarlett Johansson, Father Ted, The Portal Series, The Assassin's Creed Series, Trailer Park Boys.

      DISLIKES: Reality T.V Shows and so called reality t.v stars, people who don't wear seatbelts,
      99.999% of new Music out now, 80% of new Movies out now.

      Last Game Completed: Portal 2

        Brilliant choices one and all. I am still compiling my list, I wish I could fins where I posted it earlier on this thread so I don't have to type it all out again.

        NOTE: I have the Quiz all complete except for I still haven't chosen the DS9 episode to spotlighted in the "Episode Specific Question". I know brother jelgate suggested Sacrifice of Angels, which is a great choice, but I was thinking of using the Season III Episode Distant Voices since brother USS Defgiant just did a brilliant review with also a ton of Background Information. Maybe brother USS Defiant can re-post it for us so everyone will have a chance to read them both before next weeks quiz.

            It is too difficult to narrow down my favorite episodes of DS9...Jumper One has DS9 tournaments going on, and a few of us duke it out in there for our favorites, which is fun. Come join us, if you like. Though I still am slightly bitter about The Wire not winning its season. That's the ultimate Bashir/Garak episode in my mind. I'm rooting for The Visitor in our current tournament.

                      Female Shapeshifter: I want the Cardassians exterminated.
                      Weyoun: Which ones?
                      FS: All of them. The entire population.
                      W: That... will take some time...
                      FS: Then I suggest you begin at once.

                        Sweet, I actually really liked this episode when I re-watched it recently. A great character piece for Bashir.

                          I can't believe I forgot The Siege of AR-558.....that's probably my second favourite episode. Or third.

                              I have it ranked as my either my #2 or #3 favorite/best episode from DS9 as well Lady Trek. I also consider The Seige of AR-558 one of the very best scifi episodes from any series (Star Trek or otherwise) ever made.

                              I absolutely love your DS9 character Avatar Lady Mariel (Best darn scifi character line-up ever!). That deserves some major Green.

                              Great list yourself brother J1!. I look at your list, brother Fifth's list, and everyone elses choices and I am amazed at just how many truly great Star Trek episodes and moments came from DS9.

                                Hey, has anyone noticed that Darren gave the series finale **1/2 and **, respectively?

                                Is this a more common interpretation of the finale than I realize? Because I thought it was two of the finest hours on television, ever. He gave things like 'Sacrifice of Angels' a **** rating, which I think also deserve it for sure, but 'What You Leave Behind' gets **** with ease!

                                Different strokes for different folks, and all that. But I really need to ask him what he thought was so lackluster...
                                If you've seen a Jeff O'Connor or a JeffZero or a Jeff Zero or a JeffZeroConnor elsewhere on the net, there's a considerable chance it's me.
