I actually liked DS-9. The whole concept of a bunch of individuals way out on the fringes of the galaxy, most, if not all of whom, really weren't at all happy with being there or were forced to be there, having to deal withe each other over matters personal and organizational was intriguing. I mean, even the Captain didn't hide his deep dislike of his new command; he wasn't another of those bold, heroic, straight-shooters captains in the other series. The fact they were on a station that was not the sharpest vehicle around made for even more interest since DS-9 wasn't some ultra-high tech starship with all the mod cons. The show kind of reminded me of those old war films where enemy troops face off on the front lines in an uneasy truce and have to deal with all manner of immediate problems and intrigue, including having to, at times, cooperate with the very individuals who are supposed to be your enemy. I think in the overall hierarchy of the ST TV series thus far, DS-9 is very much underrated...
