And I'm in withdrawal I'd seen episodes of DS9 before, but never all of them, and I was a bit too young to understand all the intricacies of the series.
But now I've watched a huge marathon of DS9 and I have to say I simply LOVE this series. I can draw a lot of parallels with modern TV shows. Unlike TNG and even Voyager which feel a bit out of place in modern times. And I never had much love for Voyager anyway.
It's too bad they had to kill of Jadzia in Season 6. She was one of my favourite characters, and although Ezri is cool, she doesn't really compare to what Terry Farrel brought to the role. And, I regret not seeing the Ben Sisko storyline being resolved. I cannot beleive he would just leave his newborn child and Jake alone. But its too late to see any resolution to it.
If anyone hasn't seen it, this is a great show to watch, although Seasons 1 and 2 struggle with the legacy of TNG, it really picks up after that, and you'll be carried away with the people who seem more real then any other ST show, without losing their likability like they do in shows like "BSG" where some characters are just going mad all the time.
