Deep Space Nine's third season begins eventfully, with Sisko promoted to Captain and being given a prototype warship equipped with a cloaking device, while Odo learns where he came from. In the two-part opening tale, this clever gambit is played to hook viewers into the idea of DS9 becoming an ongoing mystery/conflict show. Why the sudden intense change in format? Mostly it was to ensure the show continued to thrive, when a rather greedy production hierarchy fast-tracked Voyager onto the air mid-season (cue unnecessary crossover episode with Tuvok). Of greater concern was ratings thief Babylon 5, which played its counter-Trek cards at precisely the right time. Fortunately the result (initially at least) was a genuine boost for DS9.
Cast members seemed to have hit their stride and played off one another more assuredly than before. For example, Odo's character took several additional interesting twists, especially in his relationship with Kira. Rene Auberjonois had a very good year, directing two episodes to boot. Avery Brooks had begun this trend with the previous year's penultimate show. The real surprise was seeing Jonathan Frakes's name working behind the camera on three occasions, because he also appeared on screen in his alternate rogue Riker role, when Thomas dramatically steals the Defiant. Other welcome cameos that aided the feeling of casual camaraderie included the return of Lwaxana Troi, as well as first appearances by Quark's mother, the spooky Founder Leader, the lovely Leeta, and the sneaky Eddington. Clint Howard--a cult Trek figure--was briefly welcomed back, and with the many faces of Jeffrey Combs another was born. Stories advanced the complicated Bajoran/Cardassian healing process, while simultaneously brewing potential conflicts far worse than the behind-the-scenes ratings war. --Paul Tonks

Too many series start off well, only to drag a bit after the second or third season (e.g., SUPERNATURAL right now). Even BUFFY, as great as it was, was not as good after Season three as it had been before (with the exception of the glorious Season Five). But ST:DS9 was only getting started and peaked in its later half. (So too did ST:VOYAGER to a lesser degree.) The Dominion loomed more and more as a story in Season Three, beginning to drive many of the main story lines. And relations between ... Read More

great series in the Star Trek universe. Unique compared to original Star Trek tv show & Star Trek: The Next Generation. Plot lines are more unique & creative for a show set on a old Cardassian space station orbiting newly discovered planet Bajor. If anyone ever really wants to learn about the alien race
"The Cardassians" Season 1-3 & beyond really explores their culture & why they can be so hostile towards the Bajoran people & The United Federation of Planets in general. Learning about the ... Read More

For many fans, this is probably where DS9 got interesting - the Dominion arc got going here. But I think that overall this season isn't much better than the underrated 2nd season, and not as strong as the final four. Unlike the 2nd, which was uneven at the beginning but really strong near the end, this one is much more even - there are great, good and decent episodes interspersed throughout. There are three or four duds, including the lame "Meridian". And of course there are classics too - "Visionary", ... Read More
