Where can I find DS9 episodes ?

Post by Sarevok »

I did not watch DS9 much when it was on TV. I now feel that I missed a great star trek show. So I searched and found out that the entire series is available on DVD. But the price seems a bit too high. Is it possible to buy only episodes I like ? Also can people who watched the entire show tell me which seasons are the best and worth spending my money on ?

If you aren't a die hard fan watch Season 3 onward. Seasons 1 and 2 are rather boring in my opinion. To my knowledge Paramount doesn't they sell individual episodes on DVD. You may have to pinch them from a p2p network.

I do not know if they still do this, but I know at one time Paramount
sold episodes on vhs. I am sure you can find some of them somewhere.

They still do, at least according to the official startrek site. But VHS is a thing of the past, I want high quality DVD video.

Anyway I have decided to buy seasons 4 and 5 for my upcoming birthday.
Thanks for the information.

I agree. Most of the big space battles which I like enjoy occur in the later seasons. Again I thank you too for your info.

Can't say I blame you for wanting the DVD over VHS. But at $115 or so
per season, it can get real expensive real fast.
Speaking of the DVD's, my first TOS DVD, I was surprised to see that
same old grainy, picture, black lines all over the screen when the
show opened and showed the Enterprise entering orbit. Once past that
it was standard digital quality of course, but I wonder why they did not
get rid of that messy picture.
